[Hiring] Asset Sales & Delivery Specialist @SimpleClosure

Role Description

SimpleClosure is seeking an Asset Sales & Delivery Specialist to secure the rights to the assets that power AssetHub and deliver them to our AI buyers. When a company shuts down, the codebases, workspaces, and proprietary data it built can be worth a lot, but only if the rights are clean. You will work directly with founders, investors, and counsel at companies selling their assets, negotiate and close the deals, and then own delivery to buyers such as top AI labs, RL environment providers, and agent builders. This is a short-cycle, high-ownership sales/customer success role: you will run many deals at once, from first conversation to signed agreement to delivered asset.

We are a legal tech company at heart. We buy assets from sellers and license them to buyers, and we care about the rights and risks of every party involved. Our position in the market is a curated selection of high-quality assets that come with the rights and the data to back them up. Your job is to select great assets, secure those rights on terms that are economical for us and responsible for sellers and buyers, and make sure every deal is one both sides can stand behind. You will also pass what you learn back to the team, so we can keep structuring the marketplace in a way where buyers and sellers both win.

*This is a fully remote role, open to candidates anywhere in the U.S.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the supply-side deal cycle from first conversation to signed agreement: qualify sellers and assets, position Asset Hub clearly, negotiate, and close the rights to codebases, workspaces, and other assets.
• Build trust with founders, boards, and investors by explaining clearly how licensing works, what rights we are acquiring, and how the process protects them.
• Negotiate agreements in close partnership with legal, and responsibly adjust our contracts deal by deal, using sound judgment on which terms we can and cannot give (scope of rights, exclusivity, reps and warranties, and payment structure).
• Help select the right assets: weigh quality, buyer demand, and rights clarity, and flag legal, IP, privacy, and third-party risks early, so every asset we take on is one we can license with confidence.
• Own delivery: carry each asset from signed deal to delivered product for our AI buyers, coordinating with engineering, legal, and operations on transfer, packaging, de-identification, and buyer acceptance.
• Keep deals moving: manage a high-volume pipeline in HubSpot, forecast accurately, and keep sellers and buyers informed at every step.
• Be the voice of the market inside the team: share what you hear from sellers and buyers on terms, pricing, and process, so product, legal, and the GM of Asset Hub can structure the marketplace in a way that works for everyone.
• Build repeatable playbooks, templates, and workflows (using AI tools where they help) that make each deal faster and more consistent than the last.

Qualifications

• Sales and negotiation (critical): a track record of closing deals through strong positioning and negotiation, ideally in a short-cycle, high-volume environment.
• Experience: 2-4 years in sales, customer success, deal-making, or a similar commercial role, ideally involving contracts, IP or data licensing, M&A, regulatory environments or marketplaces.
• Working with legal: comfortable reading and marking up agreements, partnering with counsel, and responsibly adjusting terms.
• Strategic judgment: you think beyond the single deal: which terms are worth giving, which are not, and what each concession means for sellers, buyers, and how we structure the marketplace.
• Ownership: goal-oriented, entrepreneurial, and flexible. You take a deal from first call to delivered asset, and you thrive in a brand-new market where the playbook is still being written.
• Communication: a clear, credible communicator who can earn trust quickly with founders, investors, counsel, and technical buyers.
• Operational rigor: organized enough to run many deals at once, keep a clean pipeline, and coordinate delivery across legal, engineering, and operations.

Requirements

• Nice to have: experience in M&A, asset sales, IP or data licensing, legal tech, or the startup wind-down ecosystem; familiarity with software, data, or the AI training landscape.
• Motivated by upside: this role carries a meaningful variable component tied to rights secured and assets delivered, so you should be energized by performance-based upside.

Benefits

• OTE (includes performance-based variable component): $70,000–$110,000 in San Francisco and New York, or $60,000–$90,000 in all other U.S. locations, depending on experience level and location.
• Competitive equity package.
• Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision.
• Life insurance.
• Unlimited paid time off.
• Remote work environment (within the U.S.).
• Two company-wide offsites each year.
• 401(k) with Traditional and Roth options, with immediate eligibility.
