Overview
About this role
MotherDuck is looking for an Account Executive who can do more than just run a sales motion — someone who helps shape it. The best AEs the company has met bring authentic confidence, real urgency, and the kind of entrepreneurial ownership that comes from genuinely believing in what they’re selling. Time in the data analytics, database, or developer tooling space counts, and a candidate who lights up when a customer finally connects the dots on a hard problem might be just the duck MotherDuck is looking for.
This is a hybrid role based out of MotherDuck’s Seattle office (Eastlake). This isn’t a role where the AE is handed a polished playbook and told to execute. The job means selling to data engineers, analysts, and technical decision-makers who will absolutely ask hard questions — and loving that part of it. Deal teams are collaborative by design (AE, customer engineer, support engineer, and manager all working together), so nobody goes it alone, but the role calls for curiosity, grit, and the ability to read the room and adjust appropriately.
Compensation listed on the posting: $175K – $260K • Offers Equity • Offers Commission.
