Elastic, the Search AI company, is looking for a high-energy Enterprise Account Executive to drive net-new revenue and expansion within strategic Enterprise accounts. You’ll be the owner of a defined territory where you’ll build your own pipeline, tell the Elastic Search AI story, and close complex, multi-stakeholder deals in a consumption-based model. This role sits at the intersection of sales execution, technical fluency, and cross-functional collaboration—and is critical to our growth in the Enterprise segment.

  • Own your territory & build pipeline: Develop and execute a proactive outbound cadence (email, call, social) that generates ≥50 % of your booked opportunities.
  • Deep discovery & qualification: Uncover pain, business impact, budget, and decision criteria using frameworks like MEDDPICC so you chase only the highest-confidence deals.
  • Value storytelling & demos: Craft and deliver tailored narratives and live demos that map Elastic’s Search, Observability, and Security capabilities to measurable business outcomes.
  • Mutual deal strategy & forecast accuracy: Collaborate with customers to build formal close plans and keep your CRM up-to-date, maintaining ≥90 % forecast accuracy within ±10 %.
  • Executive negotiation & closing: Lead high-stakes contract and pricing discussions—defend your value, structure give/get trades, and land multi-year consumption commitments.
  • Domain & cloud acumen: Position Elastic as the Search AI platform of choice by speaking fluently about cloud economics, usage-based pricing, and modern data architectures.
  • Cross-functional partnership: Work hand-in-glove with Solutions Architects, Customer Success, Marketing, and RevOps to accelerate deals and drive exceptional customer outcomes.
  • Proven SaaS quota‐carrying success: 5+ years closing complex Enterprise deals, consistently overachieving targets in a consumption-based or usage-model environment.
  • Expert discovery & qualification skills: Demonstrated ability to apply MEDDPICC or equivalent frameworks to drive disciplined pipeline and eliminate low-probability deals.
  • Compelling value storytellers: Track record of delivering executive-level presentations and demos that tie product capabilities to real dollars saved, revenue gained, or risk mitigated.
  • Strong negotiation chops: History of landing multi-year, high-ACV contracts while protecting margin and securing executive stakeholder buy-in.
  • Technical & cloud fluency: Comfortable discussing a broad range of technical topics including observability, security, vector/traditional search, and cloud cost optimization.
  • Collaborative mindset & coachability: A learner who partners effectively with internal teams, incorporates feedback, and embodies Elastic’s values of community and openness.
  • Prior experience at an open-source or developer‐centric infrastructure company.
  • Familiarity with observability (logs, metrics, traces) or security analytics (SIEM/XDR) use cases.
  • Competitive pay based on the work you do here and not your previous salary.
  • Health coverage for you and your family in many locations.
  • Ability to craft your calendar with flexible locations and schedules for many roles.
  • Generous number of vacation days each year.
  • Increase your impact - We match up to $2000 (or local currency equivalent) for financial donations and service.
  • Up to 40 hours each year to use toward volunteer projects you love.
  • Embracing parenthood with minimum of 16 weeks of parental leave.
