Technical Account Executive

About the job

Location: Remote (Within ±3 hours of CET)

⭐️ We seek a results-driven Technical Account Executive with a robust *technical background* to join our thriving, fully remote team. Your primary focus will involve engaging directly with technical decision-makers, such as Products, CTOs, and VPs of Engineering.

Opportunity

  • Right now, we have two people in this role at NewsCatcher, so you can get in exceptionally early at a time when our revenue is rocketing.
  • There is a great deal of freedom, trust, and accountability. There are no long approval processes; you are free to take action. This freedom goes hand in hand with responsibility.
  • Gain enormous experience by working with top Enterprise-level companies.

Functions

  • Understand customers’ needs and envision what a white glove solution could look like.
  • Find the lead’s pain points and propose custom solutions while demonstrating ROI and long-term strategic value
  • Maintain accurate CRM data: anyone could understand what the status and progress is based on your CRM notes
  • Work directly with product teams to own customer feedback and ensure it reaches the wider NewsCatcher team.
  • Independently handle customer meetings. You won’t be taking someone with you to every customer meeting - it’ll normally be you and the customer. Occasionally, you might bring a product engineer with you.

  • Ability to understand and articulate technical information for both technical and non-technical clients
  • Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and manage time effectively
  • Advanced proficiency in English.
