If you’re a future entrepreneur who’s obsessed with tech sales + legal/compliance workflows, this is a 0→1 seat to build real revenue systems — and earn a path to Sales Co-Founder.
About Settl X
Settl X builds agentic, explainable compliance for stablecoin rails — continuous KYB/KYT, FinPromOps, and audit-ready decision trails for exchanges, PSPs/PGs, wallets, and RWA platforms.
We’re building the operating layer that turns regulatory obligations into shippable workflows.
Why this role exists
Early GTM needs one owner for the full loop:
customer truth → positioning → pipeline → pilots → paid
This is not a support role. This is business ownership.
Who this is for
You’re a fit if you’re:
• a future founder who wants to learn how B2B revenue is actually created
• a tech-sales enthusiast who likes systems, experiments, and customer conversations
• comfortable with ambiguity and can still ship weekly outcomes
• strong at writing + follow-up discipline (you don’t drop balls)
Early-career is fine (0–3 years). High agency is non-negotiable.
The Co-Founder Track (how you earn it)
You start as Founding AI Legal-Tech GTM Lead.
You convert into Sales Co-Founder when you consistently show you can:
• run discovery + qualification without founders in the room
• build a repeatable pipeline system (not one-off hustle)
• drive pilot → paid outcomes with clean process
• operate with owner-level accountability (strategy + execution + metrics)
Typical timeline: ~3–6 months (performance-based, not tenure-based)
What you’ll own
1) Customer discovery → positioning (customer truth becomes strategy)
• run discovery calls: pain, urgency, objections, decision process, “why now”
• extract patterns → ICP v1, use-cases, messaging, ROI narratives
• explain hard topics simply: auditability, controls, vendor risk, privacy/subprocessors, “reliance vs outsourcing”
2) Positioning → pipeline (build the machine)
• build target lists by ICP; run outbound (email, LinkedIn, communities)
• write/iterate sequences weekly based on response data
• qualify leads, scope pilots, push next steps forward
• run a tight CRM + follow-up system; track funnel bottlenecks
3) Pipeline → close assets (trust accelerators)
Ship lightweight, repeatable assets that reduce time-to-close:
• compliance POV memo (why this, why now)
• pilot scope doc + success metrics
• control-mapping sheet
• evidence / decision-log examples
• basic security/vendor diligence responses
4) Partner leverage (speed up trust)
Support co-sell motions with KYT / Travel Rule / identity / custody partners when it shortens the sales cycle.
Weekly operating cadence (what “owner mode” looks like)
Every week you will ship:
• learnings from customer conversations (structured notes, patterns, objections)
• ICP/messaging updates (v1 → v2 → v3)
• outbound iterations (new list + new copy)
• pipeline metrics (meetings → qualified → pilots → paid; where deals stall)
• one new “trust asset” or playbook improvement
What you’ll learn (why entrepreneurs love this seat)
• 0→1 GTM: ICP, messaging, channels, outbound, pipeline mechanics
• B2B sales craft: discovery, qualification, objections, pilots, procurement
• Product sense: customer truth → requirements → roadmap decisions
• AI workflows mindset: agents/tools/RAG + reliability/quality thinking (no coding required)
• Legal/compliance + stablecoin rails: the category where trust + evidence wins
Success looks like (30/60/90)
• Day 30: 20+ structured conversations; ICP + messaging v1; you can run calls end-to-end
• Day 60: consistent qualified meetings weekly; visible funnel metrics; strong follow-up system
• Day 90: one repeatable channel working; pilot→paid motion underway; playbooks/assets documented
• (We do an owner-track review around this point.)
You’re a fit if
• high-agency, comfortable with ambiguity
• strong writing + follow-up discipline
• can reason about product/data flows (APIs, webhooks, logs) even if you don’t code
• want customer-facing work and enjoy moving deals forward
Not a fit if
• you want a purely internal role
• you avoid customer conversations
• you need heavy structure to execute
How to apply
Email 3–5 lines with:
• 1 thing you’ve owned end-to-end
• why this role + why legal-tech/compliance + stablecoin rails
• a simple 30/60/90 plan to learn the domain + generate pipeline
