Software and technology

Commercial talent for companies that build and sell technology.

Align helps software development, SaaS, IT services, and technology companies hire sales, business development, partnerships, customer success, and commercial leaders who can turn complex solutions into growth.

Commercial context matters

The right seller must understand the product and the buying process.

Software and technology companies need more than a polished resume. The right person must understand the buyer, communicate technical value in practical terms, navigate the sales cycle, and create momentum in a competitive market.

Align evaluates the evidence behind performance: what the candidate sold, who bought it, how opportunities were created, how complex the process became, and whether those results can translate to the company's stage and sales motion.
