DoraHacks is one of the world’s largest hackathon community and developer incentive platforms, powering global innovation through hackathons, grants, and decentralized governance. We’ve supported over 500 hackathons and distributed more than $70M to 250,000+ developers across Web3, AI, quantum, and other frontier tech spaces.
BUIDL AI is our next-gen hackathon automation platform — a tool designed to help enterprises, startups, Crypto/Web3 protocols, and tech communities launch, manage, and scale developer initiatives with ease. From page creation and judging to reporting and marketing, BUIDL AI streamlines the entire process.
We’re looking for a driven and results-oriented Account Executive (AE) to own the full sales cycle for BUIDL AI in the United States. You’ll be responsible for closing new business with organizations looking to host hackathons, developer programs, and open innovation challenges.
Working closely with our Business Development Representatives (BDRs), you’ll take qualified leads, run high-impact discovery calls, craft tailored proposals, and close deals that expand BUIDL AI adoption across our ideal customer profile (ICP), including Web3, AI, big tech, and emerging technology communities.
Your role will be highly visible and critical to DoraHacks’ growth in North America — combining relationship-building, solution selling, and deep understanding of the developer ecosystem.
