What you'll do

  • Partner with sales on strategic opportunities, leading in-depth demos, discovery, and solution design
  • Scope and build proposals for custom solutions, including white label playtests, managed creator programs, player acquisition campaigns, and integrations
  • Translate studio goals into practical plans with clear deliverables, timelines, and success metrics
  • Act as the product expert in deal cycles, answering complex questions and handling objections
  • Ensure a smooth handoff from sale to onboarding so nothing gets lost between the deal and delivery
  • Own relationships with a portfolio of strategic enterprise studios and publishers
  • Lead onboarding, success planning, and regular business reviews tied to measurable outcomes
  • Drive expansion through additional licenses, add-ons, and campaigns, and own renewals for your accounts
  • Identify opportunities to grow within studios and publishers, working with sales to reach new teams and titles
  • Monitor account health and usage, flag risks early, and own the follow-through
  • Bring structured customer feedback and product needs to Product and Engineering
  • Help shape how we deliver custom solutions as the business grows, turning repeat work into repeatable playbooks
  • Support and backstop teammates on strategic accounts, and help support APAC accounts during overlapping hours
  • Keep account plans, opportunities, and next steps current in our CRM

What we're looking for

  • 6+ years in account management, solutions engineering, partnerships, or business development, ideally at a platform or SaaS company serving game studios or publishers
  • Track record of managing large, complex accounts and growing them commercially
  • Experience designing and selling custom or consultative solutions, not just standard packages
  • Experience owning commercial conversations, including proposals, pricing, renewals, and expansion
  • You can learn software deeply and demo it confidently. You don't need an engineering background.
  • Equally comfortable in a technical deep dive with a studio's engineering team and in a commercial conversation with their head of marketing or publishing
  • Organized and self-directed: you can juggle several strategic accounts and live deals at once without dropping either
  • Excellent written and verbal communication in English

Nice to have

  • Existing relationships with game studios and publishers in North America or Europe
  • Background in player acquisition, playtesting, creator or influencer programs, community platforms, payments, or e-commerce for games
  • Experience at a games platform or marketplace working directly with publisher partners
  • Additional European or Asian language skills

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation, including variable compensation tied to account growth

Benefits vary by country and employment arrangement
