Account Executive

Austin, United States | Posted on 06/01/2026

Bright Watch is a fast-growing commercial security integration firm specializing in video surveillance, access control, and intrusion systems. We partner with industry-leading platforms like Verkada to deliver enterprise-grade solutions across Texas and beyond. We're building a serious sales organization - and we want people who already know this space.

We're looking for a driven, experienced Sales Executive to take ownership of a territory and build a pipeline from the ground up. You'll work directly with leadership to target and close commercial accounts - multi-locational operations, logistics facilities, healthcare, commercial real estate, and more. This isn't a training-wheel role. If you know the industry, know how to prospect, and know how to close, we want to talk.

• Identify and pursue new commercial accounts through outbound prospecting, referrals, and networking
• Manage the full sales cycle - from first call to signed contract
• Build and maintain relationships with key decision-makers at the property, operations, and executive level
• Leverage our CRM (Zoho) to manage pipeline, track activity, and forecast accurately
• Collaborate with project management and operations to ensure seamless handoffs and client satisfaction
• Represent Bright Watch at trade shows, industry events, and partner events

Bright Watch is committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences.

• Security integration industry experience strongly preferred - familiarity with Verkada, Eagle Eye, Brivo, Axis, Genetec, Lenel, or similar platforms is a genuine advantage
• Proven track record of hitting or exceeding sales quotas
• Strong prospecting skills - you know how to open doors, not just manage inbound leads
• Experience with CRM platforms (Zoho, Salesforce, or equivalent)
• Excellent communicator - in person, on the phone, and in writing
• Self-directed with strong time management; comfortable in a high-growth, lean environment
• Bachelor's degree preferred; relevant experience considered in lieu
• Competitive base salary + uncapped commission
• Performance bonus structure
• Paid time off + paid training
• Five-week paid sabbatical after 3 years
• Participation in trade shows and industry events
• Direct access to senior leadership and ongoing professional development
