About CoLab At CoLab, we help mechanical engineering teams bring life-changing products to market years sooner. We build AI for engineers designing cars, medical devices, and jet engines. Products this complex aren't sketched and sent to production. Teams spend months on iterations, reviews, and tests, predicting how every part performs before anything is built. CoLab is where those reviews happen, and we capture the rationale behind every change. Other tools show what changed between versions. Only CoLab knows why. That's how our AI helps manufacturers like Bobcat, Triumph Motorcycles, and GE Appliances make better decisions, eliminate rework cycles, and get to market faster. Proudly based in St. John’s, Newfoundland, CoLab started with one customer in 2018. Since then we’ve raised a $72M Series C, been named the 57th fastest growing company in North America by Deloitte (Fast 500™), signed multi-year AI partnerships with companies like Bombardier, and grown to a team of 250+. About the Role As a Key Account Executive focused on Aerospace & Defense, you'll own and grow some of CoLab’s most strategic enterprise accounts across North America. You’ll engage with senior engineering, program, and procurement leaders at large A&D companies, closing enterprise deals ranging from $200K to $2M+, and uncovering opportunities to expand across business units and global programs. This is a high-impact role for a consultative, relationship-driven seller who understands the complexity of regulated industries and thrives in long-cycle, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales. You’ll play a key role in shaping CoLab’s presence in the A&D market, bringing valuable insights from the field back into our GTM and product strategy. This position will require occasional travel for on-site team meetings in Newfoundland Canada, at least twice per year (primarily in December and June) in addition to occasional travel to customer sites. We recognize that travel can involve personal commitments, and we strive to accommodate individual circumstances, however the expectation is that travel to, and attendance at, the majority of these events is mandatory. Details about travel arrangements and covered expenses will be discussed during the hiring process.
