Job description

Yugabyte is the company behind YugabyteDB, the AI-ready, multi-modal, distributed PostgreSQL database for cloud-native apps. Trusted by industry leaders including Shopify, Paramount+, GM, Kroger, Fiserv, and NPCI, YugabyteDB has been deployed in over 100 countries and powers more than 5 million clusters worldwide.

Together, our hard-working team of experts and our industry-leading technology are uniquely positioned to meet the demands of modern workloads: geo-distributed, ultra-resilient, and built to scale without limits.

Our Yugabeings (distributed, like our database) span 12+ countries and multiple time zones, sharing expertise from diverse backgrounds and industries.

Position Overview

As a member of our Americas Sales Team, you will have the opportunity to own key accounts in the Mid-West. The ideal candidate has successfully partnered with enterprise (i.e. Fortune 500) customers in a start-up environment and is excited to make a large impact at a fast-growing company. You are an ambitious sales hunter with a successful track record of bringing in new logos and closing large, enterprise deals.

Role and Responsibilities

  • Bring in new logos, helping build the foundation of this geography
  • Meet/exceed your sales quota
  • Own your franchise: prospecting, discovery, pricing, quoting, negotiating, and closing the deal
  • Manage product demonstrations with the help of Sales Engineering
  • Partner with Marketing to generate demand
  • As a member of our Americas Sales Team, you will have the opportunity to own key accounts in the Mid-West.

Required Experience

  • Deep expertise selling enterprise software in the infrastructure space (database experience preferred)
  • Full-cycle tech sales experience, from pipeline generation to closing skills
  • Coachability - tremendous desire to learn about distributed SQL and constantly improve in a “no-egos” environment
  • Entrepreneurial spirit - you’re willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done

We feel strongly about equal pay for equal work, and transparency in compensation is one way to help achieve that. The cash compensation for this role is market-competitive, with an OTE of $300,000-$360,000 made up of base and uncapped commission. Our packages also include equity and benefits including competitive health plans, retirement plans, and unlimited paid time off (PTO). The pay range for this position is a general guideline only and not a guarantee of compensation or salary. The actual pay will vary based on factors including experience, qualifications, and skill level.

#LI-Remote

Due to the Proclamation, “Restriction on Entry of Certain Nonimmigrant Workers”, which went into effect on September 21, 2025, at this time we are no longer able to sponsor new H-1B visa petitions filed after September 21, 2025 for new hires. We are still able to consider candidates who require H-1B extensions, changes of employer, or other types of work authorization.

Which visas can work for this job

Occupation: Computer Systems Analysts (SOC 15-1211) — estimated from the job title.

  • Mentioned in the listing

    H-1B

  • H-1B cap-exempt employer

    Regular cap-subject employer — a new H-1B needs to win the lottery in March (unless you already hold cap-counted H-1B status).

  • TN (citizens of Canada and Mexico)

    This kind of role may fit the USMCA profession “Computer Systems Analyst (or Engineer, for engineering-degree holders)” — it depends on the actual duties. No lottery, no cap; you need the matching degree or license.

  • E-3 (Australia) and H-1B1 (Chile, Singapore)

    Same degree requirement as H-1B, but no lottery and a separate quota that is rarely filled.

  • O-1 (extraordinary ability)

    For candidates with awards, publications, press, a high salary or critical roles at distinguished organizations. No cap, no lottery; the employer files a petition.

  • STEM OPT extension (F-1 students)

    Requires an E-Verify employer. We didn't find this company in the E-Verify list — ask HR.

Salary vs prevailing wage

Level IV (fully competent)

Computer Systems Analysts · Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN. Annual prevailing wages set by the Department of Labor (OFLC).

L1L2L3L4
LevelPrevailing wageH-1B lottery odds*
Level I$71,531~15%
Level II$89,315~31%
Level III$107,078~46%
Level IV$124,862~61%

This job pays $300,000–$360,000 a year — that's Level IV (fully competent). In the wage-weighted H-1B lottery a Level IV registration gets 4 entries; estimated selection chance about 61% — better than average.

* Odds are DHS projections for the FY2027 wage-weighted lottery (actual results vary by year and employer). Since the FY2027 cap season the H-1B lottery is weighted by wage level: Level I = 1 entry, II = 2, III = 3, IV = 4. The level is set by the offered wage against the prevailing wage for the occupation and worksite. Separately, a $100,000 fee for new H-1B petitions for workers outside the US was announced in 2025; as of September 2026 a federal court ruling keeps it unenforceable while appeals continue — check the current status.
