Kalepa is looking for exceptional Sales Executives with 3-10+ years of enterprise sales experience to help spearhead our commercial growth and secure new relationships with leading US insurers. We are a VC-backed, remote-friendly startup delivering software to transform and disrupt commercial insurance. Our HQ is located in New York City.

Candidate will join a winning team and contribute directly to our rapidly growing client base. You will be expected to own the sales lifecycle and execute against Kalepa's sales playbook: initiating contact with key decision-makers and P&L owners at large insurance carriers, demonstrating key proof points and value creation from the first sales meeting and, ultimately, negotiating initial agreements so we can land rapidly and deliver ongoing value to our clients. Kalepa's clients include 3 of the 15 largest insurance carriers in the United States whose underwriters and underwriting leaders use Copilot to achieve Efficient Frontier Insurance: highly profitable, transparent, and fast-growing books of business.

Kalepa's team members bring experience from top technology, insurance, and intelligence institutions including Facebook, Google, Amazon, Uber, Doordash, Mastercard, Chubb, AIG, Zurich, Everest Insurance, MIT, Berkeley, UPenn, and the Israel Defense Forces.

Kalepa is backed by IA Ventures (early investors in Datadog, Wise, Better, Digital Ocean, TheTradeDesk, Flatiron Health, Komodo Health, etc.), Former Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker's Inspired Capital, and leaders in financial services and technology including Gokul Rajaram from Doordash, Coinbase, and Square, Jackie Reses from Square, Affirm, and Alibaba, and Henry Ward from Carta.
