About the Role This is a newly formed sales role within a dedicated overlay team, purpose-built to accelerate growth for Uniphore Customer Service AI (CSAI) — our flagship suite of AI agents that transforms how enterprises deliver customer experiences at scale. This team operates alongside the existing field sales organization, with a focused mandate to drive pipeline, develop strategic accounts, and close enterprise deals specifically within the CSAI solution set. In addition to your overlay responsibilities, you will carry and own a direct book of business, running full-cycle deals independently from prospecting through close. This is a ground-floor opportunity to help build something new — ideal for a commercially driven sales leader who thrives at the intersection of enterprise relationships, consultative selling, and cutting-edge contact center AI.
