“do the search again”

A third fresh live-web search covering Oct 17–23, 2026 found 25 additional qualifying openings across 24 companies, after excluding every company + role identity from the two previous reports (158 roles and 34 roles). 20 of the 25 disclose compensation; listings span 9 source hosts. “All” means every qualifying new role found in this broad scan, not a census of private or unindexed ATS systems.

Each opening by posted date, colored by role family

Source concentration: builtin.com backs 15 of the 25 rows (each listing has its own URL). The remaining 10 roles come from 8 other hosts.

Third-batch directory: 25 net-new founding/first sales roles at 24 companies, posted 2026-10-17 to 2026-10-23, found in a fresh live-web search. The two earlier reports (158 and 34 roles) were used as exclusion sets by normalized company + role identity, so variants of previously shown roles are treated as repeats. Generic multi-role announcements, GTM engineering without quota-carrying sales ownership, marketing, customer success, and non-revenue account management were removed in a quality pass. Compensation is quoted as posted and unverified; verify each opening before applying. The chart shows one dot per opening by posted date; the full “why this is a founding role” text is in the table.
