@marceloguimares
I close complex SaaS hiring deals and build consultative sales motions.
What I'm looking for
At TestGorilla, I own complex mid-market sales cycles for hiring solutions, coordinating infosec, legal, and engineering reviews to advance procurement. I was recognized as the top performer across the business in 2025 and increased average deal size to $6,000, including a $110,000 deal.
I've partnered with more than 300 companies worldwide and ranked #1 in revenue generation for three consecutive years. I deliver tailored demos in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, translating product value into measurable hiring outcomes.
I progressed from junior SMB Account Executive to Mid-market Account Executive within two years, contributing to TestGorilla's sales playbook, sales motion, and tech stack. My approach has evolved from high-volume outreach to high-touch, consultative selling for larger NAMER accounts.
Before SaaS sales, I led and trained teams at ModSquad, managing 50 advisors, analyzing performance in Tableau, and developing training for more than 500 advisors. I also bring early marketing experience in events, social media design, CRM implementation, and customer engagement.
