Commercial Sales Lead - Orbital Insight

Orbital Insight is a fast growing provider of geospatial data and geo-analytic services to commercial, nonprofit and public sector clients across the globe. Leveraging advancements in computer vision and cloud computing, Orbital Insight is turning millions of images into a big-picture understanding of the world that is quantitatively grounded in observation, creating unprecedented transparency, and empowering global decision makers with new sources of objective, quantified socio-economic insights.

Orbital has been a leader in the development of geospatial ML since its founding in 2014. Our founder led AI/ML at Google and NASA prior to founding Orbital. We have developed 50 algorithms and 30 patents on our AI work. To ensure a competitive advantage in this area, Orbital has begun exploring ways to significantly enhance our capabilities using the latest technological advancements.

Orbital Insight has an enviable position in a rapidly emerging market; Satellite and drone imagery is experiencing exponential growth and we are the recognized leader in using automation to help humans process it at scale. In the public sector space there is a growing awareness that the volume of imagery is on track to rapidly exceed the capabilities of the, almost exclusively manual, approach to image processing that has been the dominant paradigm for the last 50 years. Applications range from tracking key facts about the world, such as the size of strategic petroleum reserves across developed and emerging markets or the rate of deforestation in Cambodia, to monitoring water and food security around the world, to measuring the storage and movement of vehicles and ships, to tracking and monitoring patterns of life in particular countries of interest.

We are looking for an experienced Commercial Sales Lead to oversee our commercial sales team and drive growth for our company. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in B2B sales, excellent communication and leadership skills, and the ability to motivate and inspire a team. You may be interested in this role if you are a strategic thinker with a passion for sales and a track record of success in a startup environment. You will be responsible for leading commercial sales efforts, developing and executing sales strategies, and driving revenue growth.
