Reporting to the Regional Sales Director, you will be responsible for driving Telnyx's expansion across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. As we scale rapidly from our Dubai foundation into Riyadh and beyond, this is a high-impact opportunity to own a territory and shape how businesses across KSA adopt next-generation communications infrastructure.
Telnyx is a global leader in Voice AI and programmable telecom infrastructure - we provide the building blocks (SIP trunking, Voice API, SMS, WhatsApp Business API, AI inference, IoT connectivity, and AI-powered voice solutions) that companies use to embed real-time communications into their products. From AI-driven call centers to embedded phone systems in SaaS platforms, we're the infrastructure layer powering the future of voice. We hold a Saudi VVSP license and operate a Dubai and soon a KSA anchorsite for low-latency delivery and data locality across the Kingdom.
Supported by our marketing and BDR teams, you will focus on identifying and closing new high-value customers across KSA's key sectors - fintech, retail, healthcare, government, AI/voice startups, and giga-projects aligned with Vision 2030. This role would suit an experienced sales professional who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment, understands the Saudi market deeply, and can operate independently in a remote-first setting while being based in or frequently traveling to Riyadh.
