How commission works

You earn 15% of the revenue from every project you independently bring to Polynode and we successfully close. Commission is paid as Polynode receives payment from the client, so you're paid as we are. Full commission terms are shared in your offer.

About Polynode

Polynode Technologies builds custom, AI-powered software for enterprises anywhere in the world: internal platforms, web and mobile applications, AI automation, data dashboards and digital transformation. We are founder-led today and growing a team of people who care about solving real problems for real businesses.

The role

We're looking for someone who can help bring Polynode its next clients. You'll find companies that are still running on spreadsheets, manual processes and disconnected tools, start the conversation, and help them see where we can help. You'll work directly with the founder, and you'll have room to decide how you open doors: calls, email, LinkedIn, events, introductions, or something we haven't thought of.

What you'll do

  • Identify and research companies, anywhere in the world, that could benefit from custom software, AI or automation
  • Reach out through whatever works: cold calls, cold emails, LinkedIn, in-person meetings, meetups and industry events
  • Build and use your own network and referrals to get introductions
  • Hold first conversations (discovery calls), understand the client's problem, and judge whether and how we can help
  • Bring qualified opportunities to the founder and help shape the proposal
  • Keep every lead and follow-up organised in a simple pipeline, and tell us what you're learning about what clients respond to
  • Represent Polynode well: honest, clear and unpushy

What we're looking for

  • Experience in business development, sales, partnerships or a similar client-facing role. Tell us what you've sold, to whom, and how you found those clients.
  • Confident, clear communication in English, in writing and in person
  • Comfort starting conversations with people you've never met, and persistence when the first answer is silence
  • Curiosity about how businesses operate and about technology; you don't need to be an engineer, but you should be able to talk with one
  • Self-direction: you'll plan your own week and own your numbers
  • Strong follow-up habits

Nice to have

  • An existing network of business owners and decision-makers
  • A second language besides English, which can open doors with clients in other markets
  • Experience selling software, IT services or other B2B services
  • Familiarity with a CRM and LinkedIn Sales Navigator-style tools

What we offer

  • Direct work with the founder, and real influence on how Polynode sells
  • A growing company with a clear focus: custom, AI-powered software for enterprises
  • This is a commission-based role. There is no fixed salary, and you earn through the clients you bring in.
