Jobs in Alameda, CA

Role Overview

Cascade AI is hiring a Senior Account Manager to own renewals, expansion, and strategic account growth across our existing customer base.

This is a commercially oriented role. You will manage a portfolio of accounts, drive adoption, run QBRs, map stakeholders, and identify expansion opportunities across new departments and workflows.

You are not responsible for implementation — that function is owned separately. Your focus is revenue retention and growth within existing logos.

What This Role Is

This is not a support or onboarding role.

This is a revenue-carrying account ownership role focused on:

• Re-selling into the same organization
• Expanding into new departments (HR → IT, Legal, Finance)
• Strengthening executive relationships
• Driving renewal confidence

You will operate as the commercial owner of your accounts post-sale.

Core Responsibilities

1. Own Renewals

• Manage renewal timelines and negotiation strategy
• Identify risks early and create mitigation plans
• Ensure customers clearly understand value delivered
• Forecast accurately and maintain strong renewal hygiene

2. Drive Expansion Within Accounts

• Map accounts across departments and stakeholder groups
• Identify new workflow and use-case expansion opportunities
• Position Cascade’s value to new executive buyers
• Partner with AEs where appropriate to close larger expansions

Expansion at Cascade often means entering new departments, not just increasing seat counts. This requires strategic navigation and commercial skill.

3. Lead QBRs & Executive Conversations

• Run structured Quarterly Business Reviews
• Anchor discussions in value, ROI, adoption, and roadmap alignment
• Build relationships beyond day-to-day users
• Multi-thread across HR, IT, Finance, Legal, and other stakeholders

4. Drive Adoption & Account Health

• Monitor usage and engagement data
• Recommend actions to improve adoption and workflow integration
• Work closely with Implementation to ensure time-to-value
• Identify and qualify expansion signals within accounts

5. Account Strategy & Mapping

For each account, you will maintain:

• Executive stakeholder map
• Expansion pathways
• Risk assessment and mitigation plan
• Quarterly action plan

You should be able to clearly articulate:

• Where growth will come from
• What risks exist
• What next steps are required

Cross-Functional Collaboration

You will work closely with:

• CEO, Sales, and Marketing (for larger expansions or joint selling motions)
• CS Implementation for onboarding and complex rollout support
• Product & Engineering to communicate strategic customer feedback

This role requires influence without formal authority.

Who You Are

• 5+ years in Account Management, Strategic CSM, or post-sale revenue roles
• Experience owning renewals and expansion quotas
• Comfortable navigating enterprise stakeholders
• Strong account mapping and multi-threading skills
• Confident running executive-level conversations
• Commercially minded and revenue-oriented

Bonus:

• Experience selling across departments within the same organization
• Experience in B2B SaaS, HR tech, IT systems, or enterprise AI

As the Technical Sales Specialist , you’ll be responsible for building customer relationships, driving new business, and growing sales in the life sciences and microbiology space.

You’ll own the microbiology and laboratory equipment portfolio with deal sizes from a few hundred dollars up to $60K, with sales cycles varying from weeks to years.

This is an exciting opportunity to hit the ground running, take ownership of a high-potential territory across the West Coast, and play a pivotal role in the company’s growth.

What You’ll Do:

• Drive direct sales of microbiology and life sciences products across the West Coast (focus on BayArea).
• Build and maintain strong customer relationships within academia, research, and industry.
• Leverage your technical knowledge to confidently present and sell microbiology solutions.
• Develop and execute sales strategies that accelerate growth in the US market.
• Travel 2–3 days per week to customer sites across the region.
• Work independently while staying connected to the wider global team.

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven track record in technical sales within the life sciences / microbiology field.
• A “road warrior” mentality — motivated by being in front of customers and closing business.
• Strong technical acumen; able to speak the language of microbiology with confidence.
• Well-networked across research, academia, and/or life science markets.
• Independent, self-motivated, and results-driven.
• Experience managing distributor relationships is a plus, but this role requires hands-on direct sales.

Leadership & Culture:

You’ll report directly to a highly experienced commercial leader who:

• Empowers people with autonomy — not a micromanager.
• Believes in work-life balance and values people as individuals.
• Measures success through sales results and team growth.
• Celebrates promotions and personal development as much as company wins.

Compensation & Benefits:

• Competitive base salary.
• Uncapped commission structure (bonus ~1/3 of OTE).
• Quarterly pay.
• 401k plan.
• Clear career progression opportunities as the US business grows.

About Whistler Partners

Matchmakers, Not Headhunters

Whistler Partners is a boutique matchmaking firm focused on counseling the best and the brightest attorneys over the course of their careers. We believe that the right move comes from working closely with talent to curate their long-term career paths. When it comes to career advice, what matters is not the size of the agency but the strength of your individual recruiter.

We readily admit that we are elite and only work with the best – after all, a little elitism is okay when it comes to your career. Employers love us because we are picky about whom we represent, and attorneys love us because we get them their dream jobs.

Our client is looking for an IP Litigation Associate with 3 to 5 years of AMLAW 200 experience for their very sophisticated practice group. The firm is looking for those that have backgrounds in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science from top schools for this above market to market salary opportunity in any of their 3 locations: Washington D.C., New York or San Francisco. This is a fantastic opportunity to work with a close-knit group that offers no billable hour requirements and the ability to work on some of the most important intellectual property disputes in recent times. If you or someone you know meet these requirements, please message me today. I would LOVE to chat!
