Head of Retail Energy GTM

SentiLink
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 10/11/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 12/21/2026
SentiLink stops more than 150,000 fraud attempts and verifies more than 3 million identities every day to protect both institutions and consumers. The problems we work on are challenging, and solving them takes deep domain expertise, rigorous analysis, and a willingness to dig into the details.

At SentiLink, you'll work alongside smart, highly collaborative colleagues who respect each other's time and judgment, take ownership, and follow through on their commitments. Together, we do truly meaningful work protecting the identities of innocent consumers and flagging the fraudsters attempting to exploit them.

We're well capitalized and growing quickly. We already serve 13 of the top 15 U.S. banks, we're expanding into new markets, and we're backed by Craft Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, NYCA, and Max Levchin. We've been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 and as a 2026 FICO Industry Vanguard Decision Award Winner. We were also the first company to go live with the electronic Consent Based Social Security Number Verification (eCBSV) service, and we've testified before the U.S. Congress on the future of identity.

We want SentiLink to be the best place you've ever worked. We offer generous benefits and support a range of working arrangements, from fully remote to in-office. We are a digital-first company with strong collaboration across the U.S. and India, and we meet in person regularly to build relationships. We have offices in Austin, San Francisco, New York City, Seattle (Bellevue), Los Angeles, and Chicago in the U.S., and in Gurugram (Delhi) and Bengaluru in India.

  • Partner cross-functionally with Product, Marketing, Partnerships, and Customer Success to drive successful customer outcomes
  • Stay current on evolving fraud trends, customer acquisition challenges, regulatory developments, and identity-related risks impacting energy providers

Requirements

  • Demonstrated success selling into complex enterprise environments using a multi-stakeholder sales motion
  • Experience working with retail energy providers, utilities, energy marketplaces, energy technology companies, or customer acquisition organizations preferred
  • Strong understanding of customer onboarding, identity verification, fraud prevention, account security, payment risk, revenue protection, credit risk, or compliance workflows preferred
  • Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and highly driven in fast-paced startup environments
  • Excellent communication, relationship-building, and strategic selling skills

Perks
