About Us

Machines will make decisions, move value, and coordinate on behalf of organizations, instantly, autonomously, and at unprecedented scale. But the systems that govern today’s economy weren’t designed for that world. Turnkey is building the infrastructure for this future: programmable guardrails that enable autonomy without sacrificing control.

Founded by the team that scaled Coinbase Custody to $100M+ in ARR and secured more than $100B in crypto assets, we’ve built the systems trusted to move and protect billions in value.

Our mission is to help the world operate an economy on autopilot, safely.We're low-ego, high-agency, and deeply technical. Our team consists of experts in cryptography, security, and systems who believe great infrastructure is invisible. We're building the trustless, programmable foundation for the autonomous economy, and we're hiring people who understand what that requires.

Your Role

As an Account Executive at Turnkey, you will be one of the earliest sales hires, responsible for driving revenue growth by building our business from the ground up. You’ll own the full sales cycle; from pipeline generation and outreach to deal strategy, negotiation, and close; while navigating long, complex sales processes with some of the largest and most sophisticated companies in the world.

This role requires the ability to operate in uncharted territory: exploring new verticals, creating new lines of business, and forging relationships with senior executives at Fortune 500 companies, financial institutions, and leading technology firms. You’ll combine technical fluency with high level selling skills to help customers understand how Turnkey can become mission-critical to their infrastructure.

What You’ll Do

• Build the GTM Motion: Establish Turnkey’s presence in the crypto/fintech market, identifying new verticals and high-value opportunities.
• Own Full Sales Cycle: Drive deals end-to-end—prospect, qualify, run technical discovery, design solutions, negotiate contracts, and close.
• Craft Deal Strategies: Develop creative approaches for first-of-kind, complex deals; align cross-functional stakeholders internally and externally.
• Engage the C-Suite: Build trusted relationships with senior decision makers (CIO, CTO, CISO, CFO) at our prospective and current clients.
• Navigate Complex Products: Translate technical capabilities (APIs, security models, integrations) into clear business value for diverse stakeholders.
• Influence GTM & Product: Partner closely with founders, exec, Product, and Engineering—bringing market insights back to shape our roadmap.
• Represent Turnkey Externally: Act as an ambassador at industry events, conferences, and in strategic networks.

What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years of sales experience, including proven success in building net-new business in complex technical sales.
• Strong track record of closing large, multi-stakeholder deals with long sales cycles.
• Ability to engage credibly with both technical teams (developers, security engineers) and business leaders (C-suite, finance).
• Experience selling APIs, infrastructure, or highly technical SaaS products is a plus.
• Entrepreneurial, self-starter mindset with the ability to thrive in ambiguity and build systems from scratch.
• Exceptional executive presence, communication, and relationship-building skills.
• Comfort working cross-functionally with Product, Legal, Risk, and Finance teams.

Style Points

• Experience at a high-growth startup or scaling a new vertical within a larger organization.
• Crypto, fintech, or security infrastructure background preferred.
• Technical proficiency and curiosity about developer tools, APIs, or cryptography.
• Biased towards action & a one-team mentality.

What We Offer

• Full benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life, disability, HSA/FSA, 401(k)
• Paid parental leave
• Unlimited PTO
• $3,000/yr learning and development budget for conferences and education.
• Multiple team offsites per year.
• Lunch stipend
