Enterprise Account Executive

New York, New York, United States

Who We Are:

Materialize is the context engine for AI agents and applications. It lets engineering teams use SQL to transform siloed operational data into up-to-the-second, trustworthy views into any element of their business. Use Materialize to deliver fresh context to AI agents, power data-intensive UIs, and create low-latency, event-driven architectures that drive microservices and core business processes. Materialize is trusted by General Mills, Bilt Rewards, and Crane Worldwide Logistics to solve their most pressing operational data challenges while building a live data foundation for their AI transformation.

Our team spans the US (with a NYC headquarters), Canada, and EMEA. 

Investors:

Kleiner Perkins, Redpoint Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners.

About the Role:

Materialize is seeing strong inbound demand and growing market interest for our technology. As an Enterprise Account Executive, you’ll help convert that momentum into long-term customer relationships by owning complex sales cycles and partnering closely with technical and business stakeholders. You’ll work directly with our Head of Sales to engage high-intent prospects, expand existing customer relationships, and articulate the value of Materialize to engineering-led organizations. This role is well-suited for someone who enjoys selling deeply technical products in fast-moving environments and thrives on collaboration with product and engineering teams. This role offers meaningful ownership, exposure to enterprise-scale customers, and the opportunity to shape how Materialize grows its commercial motion.

This role is based in our NYC office near Astor Place, with an expectation of at least 3 days per week in person.

Responsibilities:

  • Drive new land pipeline generation, including fielding inbound interest, out-bounding to high-intent prospects, and outbounding to named target accounts.
  • Expand relationships in existing enterprise accounts, identifying and driving expansion opportunities across large organizations.
  • Lead complex sales cycles end-to-end, including scoping, demonstrating, negotiating, and closing six- and seven-figure deals.
  • Sell mission-critical enterprise software to technical buyers: engineering executives, software architects, and development teams.
  • Collaborate with Field Engineering to position Materialize as the trusted solution for real-time, operational data challenges.
  • Operate with a builder’s mindset — you’ll help shape not only our customer base but also how we sell and scale as a team.
  • Leverage AI-assisted sales tooling to maximize efficiency and impact as part of a small, high-performance team.
  • Travel frequently to build in person relationships with our prospects and customers, as well as joining tradeshows and events.

What We're Looking For:

  • 3+ years of enterprise software sales experience, with a strong track record selling complex solutions to technical buyers.
  • Experience closing six-figure enterprise deals; seven-figure deals a strong plus.
  • Proven success in outbound prospecting and managing full-cycle enterprise sales.
  • Background in selling mission-critical, highly technical software is a must; experience with OLTP or operational databases is a strong plus.
  • Comfortable engaging with C-suite executives, navigating procurement, and negotiating SaaS contracts.
  • Thrive in lean environments — you take initiative, operate autonomously, and enjoy working directly with executive leadership.
  • Familiarity with tools like SFDC, Outreach, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and sales platforms.
  • Experience at a fast-growing startup is a plus.
  • Deep understanding of database technologies is a plus.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
