Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Enterprise Growth Account Executive roles matter in SaaS because they sit at the point where product capability becomes repeatable revenue. In Snowflake’s case, the remit spans net-new pursuit and expansion within existing accounts, a common pattern in enterprise SaaS where adoption and scale inside large customers can rival initial land deals in importance.
For a SaaS sales career, this kind of seat builds durable enterprise GTM skills: running structured discovery, tailoring demos to technical stakeholders, and navigating longer buying cycles with multiple internal partners. The listing also signals frequent cross-functional work with sales engineering, services, marketing, legal, and finance—useful exposure for understanding how enterprise SaaS deals are shaped by solution design, delivery constraints, and commercial terms, not just pipeline activity.
This role tends to suit sellers who prefer autonomy and accountability and who are comfortable developing strategy for a defined territory or account set. It will likely appeal to professionals who enjoy complex, solution-based conversations and want their day-to-day to include both hunting and account development, rather than focusing exclusively on one motion.
