It addresses the limitations of current financial systems by enabling instant, global, and micropayments specifically tailored for AI and machine interactions. By leveraging stablecoins and blockchain technology, Skyfire offers a scalable and efficient solution for AI to pay for APIs, data, and services, as well as for enterprises to automate micropayments. With a strong team experienced in payments and a strategic go-to-market plan, Skyfire aims to become the financial backbone of the rapidly growing machine economy.

You will be a key early member of Skyfire's Business Development team and Company, reporting to the Head of Business.

Collaborate with Skyfire's strategic product partners to drive joint GTM opportunities. Close technical sales involving programmable payments, identity and new transaction flows.
  • Lead Deals End-to-End: Lead the full sales cycle, from first contact to solutioning, commercial terms, and signature. Many deals may involve non-standard commercial structures.
  • Evangelize: Establish Skyfire as a credible name in agentic commerce through events, talks, and relationships. Be the face of Skyfire, speaking and prospecting at AI, technology and vertical industry events and developer conferences. Articulate Skyfire's narrative and value proposition to executives and leaders in product, engineering, marketing and more.
