We’re driving digital transformation for top enterprises, from Michelin to Roche to Blue Yonder and beyond, offering unmatched control over APIs and event streams.

Our rapid growth and leadership in API management are fueled by our team’s commitment to excellence and our core values:

As an Account Manager, you will be the trusted advisor and main point of contact for our existing customers in the EMESA and DACH regions.

• Work cross‑functionally with Product, Engineering, and Support to resolve issues and deliver strategic outcomes.

• Maintain a deep understanding of Gravitee’s platform and how it solves complex, real‑world challenges.

• Identify and mitigate risks to customer adoption, satisfaction, or renewal.

ESSENTIAL SKILLS

• 3+ years of experience in a Strategic Account Management role.

• Proven track record of managing enterprise relationships with a strategic lens.

• Strong understanding of API management, developer ecosystems, or related technologies (not mandatory but a plus).
