About the job

Postman is the world's leading API platform, used by more than 45 million developers and 500,000 organizations, including 98% of the Fortune 500. The company is headquartered in San Francisco and has offices globally.

We are looking for a Key Account Director to lead growth within a set of Postman's most important enterprise accounts. This role is part of a new strategic go-to-market motion designed to deepen engagement with large enterprises, expand footprint, and deliver the full value of the Postman platform. You will be paired with a pod that includes a Principal Solutions Engineer and a Field CTO, forming a high-caliber account team focused on building long-term, value-based relationships.

What You'll Do

  • Own and grow a portfolio of strategic enterprise accounts (e.g., Fortune 500, cloud-first companies, large-scale developer organizations).
  • Deeply engage with senior buyers—CIOs, CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Platform, Security, and Collaboration—to position Postman as a critical platform solution.
  • Drive multi-threaded sales campaigns that expand existing usage and convert massive developer adoption into enterprise-wide value.
  • Lead complex solution sales cycles across collaboration, security, API governance, and emerging AI-enabled workflows.
  • Identify customer pain points and design tailored value propositions that demonstrate ROI and impact at scale.
  • Orchestrate cross-functional engagement with Customer Success, Product, and Marketing to maximize customer outcomes.
  • Track, forecast, and report on account progress, pipeline health, and business results.
  • Be a thought partner to your accounts, staying ahead of industry trends like agentic AI, workflow automation, and cloud-native development.

About You

  • 10–15 years of enterprise sales experience, with a proven track record in strategic account management and expansion.
  • Experience selling technical and platform products (developer tools, SaaS platforms, cloud infrastructure, or security solutions).
  • Demonstrated success in solution selling—engaging with senior technology leaders and driving multi-million dollar expansion deals.
  • History of working long cycles and successfully growing accounts over time.
  • Ability to navigate large, complex organizations with thousands of users and multiple stakeholders.
  • Collaborative mindset with experience working closely with technical teams (solutions engineers, architects, CTOs).
  • Deep understanding of enterprise buyer personas (security, collaboration, platform, developer productivity).
  • Curiosity and fluency in emerging technologies, particularly AI/agentic AI, and how they can automate workflows and deliver customer value.

Compensation: The reasonably estimated OTE for this role is $350,000-$420,000 plus a competitive equity package.

Benefits: Postman offers full medical coverage, flexible PTO, wellness reimbursement, and a monthly lunch stipend, along with other wellness programs and team-building events.
