About Bustem
Bustem helps high-growth e-commerce brands find and shut down copycats, counterfeiters, scammers, and unauthorized sellers stealing their revenue. We scan marketplaces, websites, ads, and domains to detect brand abuse: then help brands take action against it.

We work with brands that have real revenue on the line. Brand abuse isn’t a nuisance for them: it’s a material threat. We’re the team that stops it.

We’re growing, and we’re building a sales function to match the opportunity.

About the Role
This is a full-cycle AE role. You’ll own the process from the first conversation to close: running discovery, building the business case, navigating legal and brand teams, and getting deals across the line.

You’ll be selling into brand protection, legal, and e-commerce leadership at mid-market and enterprise brands. These are buyers who understand the cost of inaction: your job is to make Bustem the obvious solution.

This role is right for someone who’s comfortable with complex sales, multiple stakeholders, and longer cycles, and who still knows how to create urgency and drive decisions.

• Own a book of business and build a pipeline through outbound, inbound, and partner

• Identify and prioritize high-fit accounts based on brand size, category, and abuse

• Provide reliable weekly and monthly forecasts

• Document activity, stages, and next steps in CRM consistently


Collaboration

• Work closely with the founder on strategic accounts and key negotiations

• Feed market intel back into product, marketing, and enforcement: you’re on the front

lines

• Help shape repeatable sales playbooks as we scale the function

About You
• 3+ years of B2B sales experience in a closing role

• Proven track record selling into mid-market or enterprise accounts

• Strong discovery skills: you know how to find the real problem and build around it

• Comfortable with longer sales cycles and the discipline to manage them well

• Self-directed and high-output: you don’t need a large team to be effective
