The role is full-time and remote-first, based in Baghdad and covering Erbil, Basra, and Sulaymaniyah, and pays a base salary plus uncapped commission. A minimum of two years' B2B sales experience is required.</p><p>We are opening Iraq as a market and hiring two Sales Executives to do it. You will be among the first commercial hires on the ground, responsible for building a pipeline from a standing start: identifying companies with a problem worth solving, reaching the person who owns that problem, understanding how their operation actually runs, and bringing a scoped opportunity back to our engineering team. This is a consultative B2B sale. Your buyers are owners, general managers, and operations directors who will ask specific questions about what the system does, what happens when it fails, and who owns it afterwards. You will be trained on the product so you can answer those questions accurately rather than deflect them.
