Head of Partnerships (CommissionEquity Only)

Head of Partnerships (CommissionEquity Only) Odea.io is an ambitious, fast-moving startup building powerful B2B solutions. Odea builds immersive AI chat experiences with 3D animated characters. Although the opportunity for our AI avatar solution is vast, we are currently focused on niches within content creators, entertainment and brands/marketing agencies. We’re searching for someone who wants to shape the future, not just fill a traditional role. If hustle, resilience, and creativity are your superpowers, let’s talk. Role Overview This is a hands-on, founder-facing role: nothing is built for you. No scripts, no lead lists, no sales ops. As our first sales leader, you’ll design, execute, and own our entire B2B outbound motion, pioneering revenue in a resource-constrained environment. You'll help set strategy, chase down leads, and close our very first customers, all while helping shape Odea.io’s go-to-market playbook and culture. What You’ll Do Build the outbound B2B pipeline from zero - prospect, qualify, and win new accounts using any means available. Develop and implement scrappy sales strategies without the luxury of a sales stack or big budgets. Personally outreach, pitch, present, negotiate, and close deals. Collaborate directly with the CEO and technical team to evolve product and value propositions. Create lightweight, repeatable processes for sales that future team members can build on. Embody founder-level hustle, rolling up sleeves to do whatever it takes to get deals done. Who You Are 3 years in B2B sales, ideally with early-stage AI saas or publishers Extremely scrappy and entrepreneurial, with a builder’s mindset and a strong bias to action. Adept at direct outreach—cold email, cold call, social, events; you can generate your own momentum from scratch Resilient, optimistic, and ready to roll with startup volatility and challenges. Incentives & Compensation Commission-based on every closed deal (uncapped, with real upside). Substantial equity stake. Be part of building and owning something meaningful. No base salary at this stage. This isn’t for someone seeking guaranteed pay; it’s for those who thrive on reward-for-results and true ownership. Fit & Culture If you want structure, process, and plenty of handholding, this won’t be the right fit. If you want autonomy, agency, and the ability to shape the company, this is the role for you. You’ll work directly with founders, influence strategy, and see the results of your work immediately. J-18808-Ljbffr
