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 for everything from stopping fraudulent credit card swipes, verifying identities, and maximizing clean energy capture.

We've recently raised a $50 million Series A, led by Felicis.

As an Enterprise Account Manager, you will own commercial growth and long-term revenue outcomes across Chalk’s enterprise customer base.

This is not a traditional renewals or farming role. Chalk is an early-stage, consumption-based ML infrastructure company. Revenue growth depends on helping customers identify, launch, and scale high-value production use cases. You will work closely with customers, Forward Deployed Engineering, Product, and Sales to expand Chalk’s footprint across strategic accounts.

You will be responsible for building executive relationships, developing account plans, identifying expansion opportunities, forecasting consumption growth, managing renewals, and turning successful use cases into broader enterprise adoption.

• Own post-sale commercial outcomes for a portfolio of enterprise customers, including expansion, renewal, retention, and consumption growth.

• Build and execute strategic account plans that map customer priorities, technical use cases, stakeholders, budgets, buying centers, and expansion paths.

• Partner with Forward Deployed Engineering to move customer use cases from early deployment into production and scaled usage.

• Identify new use cases, teams, business units, and workloads where Chalk can create measurable value.

• Build trusted relationships with technical champions, business owners, procurement teams, and executive sponsors.

• Forecast expansion, renewal, and consumption growth with rigor and accuracy.

• Lead commercial conversations around renewals, expansions, pricing, packaging, and enterprise agreements.

• Develop a deep understanding of each customer’s ML infrastructure, production workflows, data architecture, and business objectives.

• Surface customer patterns, blockers, and product feedback to leadership and Product.

• Help define the playbook for account management in a high-growth, consumption-based ML infrastructure company.

• Build a clear understanding of Chalk’s product, customer base, use cases, and revenue model.

• Develop account plans for your assigned enterprise customers.

• Establish strong working relationships with CS, Sales, Solutions, Field Engineering, and Product.

• You can operate with technical depth and credibility across ML, data, infrastructure, developer tools, cloud, or enterprise software environments.

• You are highly structured: you build account plans, inspect pipeline, manage next steps, and forecast carefully.

• You are comfortable in an early-stage company where the playbook is still being built.

• You can work cross-functionally without needing perfect role clarity.
