Freebuff a free AI coding agent, funded by ads.

Our ads platform helps companies reach developers while they're working with AI. We're hiring a Founding Advertiser Success Manager to help advertisers get live, see results, and keep growing with us.

You'll own the full sales cycle, from finding a prospect and making the first call to closing their initial advertising campaign. This is a hands-on individual contributor role with room to shape how we sell.

What you'll do

  • Identify promising advertiser segments and build targeted prospect lists, starting with developer tools, software, and products relevant to our audience.
  • Run consistent outbound through cold email, cold calls, and thoughtful follow-up. Test messages, offers, and prospecting channels to learn what converts.
  • Respond quickly to qualified inbound opportunities, run discovery calls and demos, and help advertisers define campaign goals and an initial budget.

What we're looking for

  • Experience personally prospecting and closing B2B business, with specific examples of revenue you generated.
  • Willingness to pick up the phone, write strong outreach, and follow up consistently.
  • Strong organization and ownership. You can build a pipeline and operating habits without an established sales organization.
  • Interest in AI and developer products. Experience selling advertising, sponsorships, or developer tools is a plus.

What success looks like

  • New paying advertisers, collected revenue, a healthy qualified pipeline, and a sales process that reliably turns outreach into launched campaigns.

Why join Freebuff?

  • We are the fastest growing developer product on the planet - 20% week over week.
  • We have 200k monthly active developers, we are making millions in ad revenue, and are on track to be an 100B company in less than 2 years.
  • At Freebuff, you will work with the most talented engineers, designers, and marketers in Silicon Valley. Our team is lean and elite, with several ex-YC founders.

Compensation

  • We offer significant equity compensation.
  • This role’s cash compensation will be 1/2 commission and 1/2 base salary. The On Target Earnings range is between $160,000 - $200,000 / year.
