Apply

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

About the role

You’ll be a Strategic AE selling Cursor to health verticals: life sciences, biotech, chemicals, and research-heavy enterprises. You’ll help platform and engineering leaders move faster while respecting validated environments, documentation needs, and strong governance expectations.

What you’ll do

  • Build and execute account plans across pharma/biotech/CROs/chemicals and adjacent platforms

  • Prospect into R&D engineering, platform teams, security, and IT leadership

  • Run discovery that connects developer productivity to R&D velocity, quality, and compliance

  • Lead POVs in real codebases; partner with Solutions Engineering on deployment constraints

  • Navigate procurement, security reviews, and enterprise contracting

  • Close and expand: pilot → standardization → broader rollouts across teams/sites

  • Codify repeatable motions for this vertical (playbooks, messaging, reference architectures)

You may be a fit if

  • 7+ years enterprise sales; experience in life sciences/biotech/regulated R&D is a plus

  • You can sell to technical buyers and communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders

  • Strong pipeline generation habits and disciplined forecasting

  • You're a true hunter - you proactively build pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, creative sourcing, and relentless follow-up, rather than relying on inbound demand

  • Builder mindset: you like creating the motion, not waiting for it
