*"Basis is on the frontier of building production-grade, long-horizon agents. **They've pushed the limits of what we thought our models could do** on real-world, economically valuable, complex accounting tasks. They've been a great collaborator in helping us shape what the future of agents looks like." — Prashant Mital, Applied AI Lead, OpenAI*
What you’ll be doing:As the Sales Manager, you will be responsible for leading a team of Account Executives to drive revenue growth during our most critical scaling phase.
