WatchDog is hiring a senior Sales Executive to drive US-led recent-logo acquisition and growth-account expansion across the North American oil & gas market. This is a high-agency individual-contributor role — not a VP Revenue or sales-management position. You will own a defined territory, target-account list, pipeline, and recent-revenue quota, with primary emphasis on US growth. You'll be expected to open doors, create urgency, run disciplined sales cycles, and convert early deployments into larger field, basin, and enterprise opportunities. The right candidate understands complex industrial technology sales, can sell workflow change into field-driven operating environments, and is motivated by measurable revenue outcomes.

and reduced site visits Deliver product demonstrations and value-based presentations to field, technical, operational, and executive buyers Negotiate and close customer-funded pilots, initial deployments, and commercial expansion agreements Sell workflow change, not just technology

WatchDog is not a simple software seat or commodity hardware sale. Winning requires helping customers change how field work is seen, measured, escalated, and acted on. Help customers understand how remote monitoring changes daily field routines, exception management, dispatch decisions, and operator workload Build consensus across field users, operational managers, technical stakeholders, and executives sponsors Partner with Sales Engineering, Product Adoption, Installation, and Customer Success to define success criteria before pilots and early deployments begin Ensure every pilot or early deployment has an operational owner, measurable success criteria, a review date, and a defined commercial next step Avoid science project pilots by creating a clear path from early deployment to value realization and expansion Convert early deployments into scale Own your pipeline and your numbers

Maintain accurate CRM hygiene, forecasting, next steps, and pipeline transparency Manage opportunities with clear stage discipline, deal strategy, and committed customer actions Track basin activity, customer developments, and competitor positioning Represent WatchDog at conferences, trade shows, customer meetings, and field visits across North America Share field-tested market intelligence with Sales, Marketing, Product, and executive leadership Contribute practical feedback to improve WatchDog's sales playbook, messaging, discovery process, and pilot-to-scale conversion model What We're Looking For

7+ years of B2B sales experience, including a explicit track record of new-logo wins and quota over-achievement Experience selling into oil and gas operations, production, automation, asset integrity, HSE, or field technology teams Background in industrial technology, SCADA, IoT, telemetry, remote monitoring, SaaS, or operational technology strongly preferred Proven ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles from prospecting through close Strong discovery, business-case development, demo, and presentation skills Ability to sell operational workflow change, not just product features Commercial instincts: you can identify pain, find budget, build urgency,



and close the gap Self-starter with the discipline to operate independently across a large geography while maintaining strong CRM and forecast hygiene Comfortable working as a senior individual contributor inside a cross-functional team; no need for direct reports to create impact Ideal Candidate Traits

Competitive, accountable, and motivated by the scoreboard High-agency, self-directed, and comfortable building opportunity from the ground up Comfortable carrying a quota and forecasting honestly Able to build long-term customer trust without slowing down the sales cycle Strong enough to challenge the status quo with customers and internally Curious about field operations, production workflows, and the practical realities of oil and gas work Clear communicator who can move between the lease road, the control room, and the executive boardroom Energized by helping operators run safer, leaner, more profitable field operations through technology How Success Is Measured

New US revenue and new logos won Qualified pipeline created in target accounts Customer-funded pilots and initial deployments secured Pilot-to-first-order conversion, and first-order-to-second-order conversion Expansion revenue inside assigned growth accounts Quota attainment and pipeline coverage Sales cycle velocity, win rate, and stage progression Forecast accuracy and CRM hygiene Territory growth and market penetration Travel

This role requires regular travel throughout North America for customer meetings, field visits, demos, onboarding kickoffs, conferences, and strategic account development. Expect meaningful time in the field with operators and in the basins where they work. Why WatchDog
