About Farsight Vision

Farsight Vision develops AI-powered geospatial intelligence solutions for defence and security operations. The platform transforms raw aerial and sensor data into real-time 3D environments, actionable analytics, and AI-assisted operational scenarios, enabling enhanced situational awareness, mission planning, and faster decision-making for both human operators and autonomous systems. We operate at the intersection of geospatial data, computer vision, and defense operations — and if that interests you, read on.

We are looking for an experienced, commercially driven Account Executive to develop and close opportunities with defence, government, and industry customers internationally. This is not a role for someone who waits for a fully-scoped account plan and a hand-off list of leads — you will own the full customer relationship, from first conversation to signed contract, and build the strategy as you go. This is a highly customer-facing role combining new business development, account management, product demonstrations, industry events, and complex B2B/B2G sales. You should be comfortable operating independently, building relationships with senior stakeholders, and representing the company professionally in both small meetings and on large stages.

Responsibilities

• Own the full sales cycle, from prospecting and qualification through proposal, negotiation, and contract closure
• Develop relationships with defence organisations, government customers, system integrators, OEMs, and technology partners
• Build and maintain a qualified pipeline and deliver against revenue targets
• Conduct customer discovery, presentations, product demonstrations, and commercial negotiations
• Develop account and opportunity strategies for complex, multi-stakeholder sales
• Represent the company at defence exhibitions, conferences, range demonstrations, and customer events — delivering presentations and speaking confidently onstage, on panels, and in front of senior audiences
• Coordinate closely with product, engineering, operations, and leadership teams throughout the sales process
• Maintain accurate CRM records, forecasts, next steps, and account information, and travel frequently to customer meetings, events, demonstrations, and field activities

Requirements

• 5+ years of B2B/B2G sales, business development, or account management experience, preferably involving complex technology solutions
• Demonstrated experience owning and progressing sales opportunities through multiple stages of the sales cycle
• Strong communication, presentation, negotiation, and stakeholder-management skills
• Experience presenting publicly or speaking onstage at conferences, industry events, panels, or similar settings
• Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Willingness and ability to travel approximately 50% of the time, including internationally
• Professional working proficiency in English
• Ability to operate independently in a fast-moving, international environment

Nice to have

• Previous experience in the defence, security, aerospace, drone/UAV, robotics, geospatial, ISR, or dual-use technology sectors — veterans are welcome and preferred
• Experience selling to military, government, law-enforcement, or other public-sector organisations, with an understanding of defence procurement and complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles
• Existing network within the European or NATO defence ecosystem, and experience working with system integrators, defence primes, distributors, or channel partners
• Experience participating in field demonstrations, trials, exercises, or defence-industry events
• Fluency in a second European language (e.g. German, Ukrainian, Norwegian, Danish, French, or another language)
• Valid driver’s licence and willingness to drive during business travel when required

Security Eligibility

Our platform is actively used by the Armed Forces in live operations. As an Estonian-Ukrainian defence technology company handling sensitive operational data, we have a responsibility — legal, ethical, and practical — to ensure the integrity of everyone on our team.

All candidates must be able to confirm the following:

• Neither you nor your close relatives (parents, spouse, siblings, children) reside in Russia, Belarus, or temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories
• You have no regular personal, financial, business, or professional contact with individuals in those territories
• You consent to a deeper security verification if the process advances to later stages

If any of the above criteria are not met, please do not proceed with your application.

Why Farsight Vision

We are a startup operating under real-world conditions — our product is in active deployment, and the pace reflects that. You are commercially ambitious and comfortable working in an environment where selling happens as much in the field and at customer sites as behind a laptop — moving confidently between a meeting with military end users, a commercial negotiation with a partner, a technical discussion with engineers, and a presentation in front of a conference audience. Motivation to help the Defence Forces has to show up as action here, not a slogan — including being reachable when a customer or a military stakeholder needs time outside standard hours. You are structured enough to manage a complex pipeline and persistent enough to progress long-cycle opportunities, credible with defence and government stakeholders, and curious enough to keep learning as the technology and the market evolve.

Flexible working hours. Paid vacation and sick leave. Direct access to founders and leadership.
