Head of Sales-Vindexa (first sales hire)

Vindexa is an AI-powered compliance platform purpose-built for the clean energy industry. We automate the verification of Prevailing Wage and Apprenticeship (PWA) requirements under the Inflation Reduction Act -- the compliance obligations that determine whether renewable energy developers keep or lose their IRA tax credits. The stakes are real. A single construction project can carry $50M+ in tax credit exposure. Developers, EPC contractors, and their tax equity partners need certainty that compliance holds up to IRS scrutiny in real time, not months after the fact. We built the alternative: an AI system that ingests certified payroll data, validates it against DOL wage determinations and apprenticeship program requirements, surfaces violations in real time, and generates the audit trail needed for tax credit certification. Vindexa is backed by AI Fund (Andrew Ng) and AES Clean Energy, one of the largest renewable energy developers in the world, as our anchor design partner and early customer. The product is built, the first customer relationship is deep, and the pipeline is building. Now we need the engineering foundation to match the ambition. The Role-First Sales HireThe product works. Our first enterprise customer is live and serious developers are already in conversation with us. The next constraint is pipeline: building it, warming it, and helping close it. The team is small and intentional. We are building in the age of AI, deliberately lean, and expect everyone here to operate with that same mindset: using intelligent tools to do what previously took teams, moving fast, and treating leverage as a core competency. There is no playbook handed to you. No inherited pipeline, no prior GTM lead to follow. You are building the commercial foundation of this company alongside a founder who will be in the trenches with you on every deal. The GTM function at Vindexa will be shaped by what you build in the next 12 months.
