IC Strategic AE

About the role

You'll be an IC Strategic AE selling Cursor to life sciences, biotech, chemicals, and research-heavy enterprises. You'll help platform and engineering leaders move faster while respecting validated environments, documentation needs, and strong governance expectations.

What you'll do

• Build and execute account plans across pharma/biotech/CROs/chemicals and adjacent platforms
• Prospect into R&D engineering, platform teams, security, and IT leadership
• Run discovery that connects developer productivity to R&D velocity, quality, and compliance
• Lead POVs in real codebases; partner with Solutions Engineering on deployment constraints
• Navigate procurement, security reviews, and enterprise contracting
• Close and expand: pilot → standardization → broader rollouts across teams/sites
• Codify repeatable motions for this vertical (playbooks, messaging, reference architectures)

You may be a fit if

• 7+ years enterprise sales; experience in life sciences/biotech/regulated R&D is a plus
• You can sell to technical buyers and communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders
• Strong pipeline generation habits and disciplined forecasting
• You're a true hunter - you proactively build pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, creative sourcing, and relentless follow-up, rather than relying on inbound demand
• Builder mindset: you like creating the motion, not waiting for it
