About the role
RB DesignTech has been engineering since 1995 — AI agents, real-world asset tokenization, IoT systems and complete product development — for 74 Fortune 500 enterprises and more than 450 SMB clients.
This is a 1099 partnership, not a salaried role. There is no base and no territory cap. You bring the relationships and run your own book; we handle scoping, delivery and support. Partners typically work a small number of accounts deeply rather than running high-volume outbound.
Unlike a single-product sale you have four lines to take into the same account, and a delivery team that can scope across all of them. Smaller engagements can close inside a couple of weeks; the larger transformation programmes are worth more and take longer, and you can run both at once.
What you’ll do
- Source and qualify opportunities inside your existing network of enterprise and mid-market buyers.
- Run discovery that works out which of the four service lines actually fits — and says so plainly when none of them do.
- Bring the solutions team in for technical scoping, and stay the commercial owner through close.
- Negotiate and close engagements ranging from focused pilots to multi-phase programmes.
- Hold the relationship after close to surface expansion work across the other lines.
What we’re looking for
- A sales record you can talk about — B2B, real estate, insurance, solar, SaaS or anything else where you had to open the conversation and close it.
- People you could call. You do not need a CRM full of enterprise logos; you need a network you are willing to work.
- Comfort talking to a business buyer and a technical one in the same room. You do not need to be an engineer — the solutions team joins for anything technical.
- Genuine interest in emerging technology. You will be selling AI, robotics and automation, and enthusiasm carries further here than pedigree.
- Self-direction, and enough financial runway to build a book on commission. You set your own hours and work your own accounts.
- Prior 1099, commission-only, contractor or founder experience is a plus, not a requirement.
- You must be able to work as an independent contractor in the United States.
This role uses an automated employment decision tool
Your interview is conducted by AI and scored by AI. A person at RB DesignTech reads that score alongside your transcript and your resume and makes the decision — the software does not decide.
- What it assesses
- Sales track record (30%) · Domain and industry fit (25%) · Independence and self-direction (25%) · Communication and motivation (20%)
- What it collects, and from where
- Your resume and the details taken from it, and the transcript and video and audio recording of the interview — all from you, during this application. Nothing is bought from anyone or taken from anywhere else.
- How long it is kept
- Up to 24 months, or until you ask us to delete it.
- If you would rather not be assessed this way
- Ask for an alternative selection process, or for an accommodation, on the Your data page. Asking never counts against your application.
