Account Manager

About Chalk

Chalk is building the data platform that powers the future of machine learning applications. We tear down complexity, latency, and scale barriers that have traditionally constrained ML capabilities. Our platform combines Rust-speed performance with elegant tools that developers love to use. Leading companies depend on Chalk to run real-time ML systems for fraud prevention, identity verification, and dynamic decisioning. We’ve recently raised a $50M Series A led by Felicis.

About the role

As an Account Manager (IC) at Chalk, you’ll own the commercial and strategic success of a portfolio of enterprise customers post-sale. You’ll drive usage, retention, and expansion by deeply understanding how customers deploy Chalk across their ML and data workflows.

Reporting to the VP of Sales, this role is for someone who is commercially minded, technically fluent, and accountable for outcomes. You are not just maintaining relationships, you are driving measurable impact.

We work in person Monday through Friday from our SF, LA, or NY offices. We do not currently offer remote or hybrid roles.

What you’ll do

• Own post-sale relationships for a portfolio of strategic enterprise accounts as the primary point of contact
• Drive product usage and adoption across teams and workflows, ensuring Chalk becomes embedded in customers’ production systems
• Identify and lead expansion opportunities including cross-sells, upsells, and net-new use cases in partnership with sales
• Collaborate closely with Forward-Deployed Engineers (FDEs) and Engineering to ensure successful deployments and ongoing customer health
• Partner with Technical Support to resolve issues efficiently and feed recurring patterns back into Engineering
• Design, maintain, and act on customer health scores using quantitative signals such as usage, adoption depth, support trends, and engagement
• Monitor and own metrics including NDR, NPS, CSAT, and expansion performance
• Proactively identify risk, mitigate churn, and course-correct accounts before issues escalate
• Identify strong customer outcomes and partner with Marketing to develop testimonials, case studies, benchmarks, and reference accounts
• Build strong relationships with engineering leaders and business stakeholders
• Translate customer feedback and technical requirements into actionable insights for Product and Engineering
• Maintain clear reporting on account health, usage trends, risks, and opportunities

What we’re looking for

• 2–5 years of experience in Account Management, Customer Success, Solutions Engineering, or a related role
• Experience supporting enterprise customers with complex, technical products across long sales cycles
• Comfort discussing APIs, data infrastructure, ML systems, and enterprise architectures
• Demonstrated history of carrying a number or owning measurable outcomes such as NDR, NPS, CSAT, or expansion revenue
• Strong quantitative mindset with comfort analyzing data, building reports, and communicating insights
• Ability to collaborate effectively across sales, engineering, FDEs, and Support
• Consultative approach and curiosity for uncovering new use cases

Bonus points

• Experience with ML infrastructure, data platforms, or developer tools
• Familiarity with MLOps or real-time ML systems
• Prior experience working closely with sales on expansion motions
