## Job description

Over 4M developers have used Resend, and we're onboarding hundreds of new paying customers every day. We've built enrichment and segmentation systems to identify high-value accounts across our inbound funnel. Founder-led sales have closed enterprise deals. We've brought in experienced GTM help to build early infrastructure and playbooks. We're looking for a Technical Account Executive to join our small and growing Buyer Experience Squad. This is a building and closing role. You'll take what exists, pressure-test it, expand it, and iterate on our repeatable sales motion. This role is remote based in the Americas Time Zones. [Read more about how we work, how we hire, and what we value here](https://resend.com/handbook).

In this role, you will…

- Work high-intent inbound opportunities from enriched, segmented enterprise logos and high-growth companies
- Build on existing playbooks - we have hypotheses and early wins; you'll validate, iterate, and scale what works
- Run experiments across messaging, timing, and channels to find repeatability
- Expand existing customers by identifying accounts that could benefit from higher tiers or additional products
- Prevent churn by distinguishing accounts worth saving from natural lifecycle churn
- Be the voice of the customer internally - feeding learnings back to product, marketing, and success
- Document everything - your learnings become the playbook the team builds on

You’ll be a great fit if you…

- You've built before. You know what it's like to operate without a finished playbook and have built out a new role, team, or function from zero
- You're customer-obsessed. Genuinely curious about customers' problems. Comfortable working with deeply technical infrastructure engineers and newer developers alike. You meet people where they are
- You think like a scientist. Hypotheses, tests, measurements, iteration. You're trying to learn something with every conversation
- You document and share. Not a lone wolf. You write things down and make the whole team smarter from your work
- You're technical enough. You don't need to be a developer, but you can hold a credible conversation about infrastructure, APIs, and email deliverability
- You care about craft. You notice sloppy details. You believe sales can and should be done with the same care as great product
- You’re comfortable with travel. Conferences, prospect on-sites, team events and everything in between to help drive value to our users

What it means to join the team...

- First 3 months focused on learning and experimentation, not rigid quotas
- Work directly with founders who are invested in building this function the right way
- Clear path to define quotas together based on what we learn
- Team-oriented culture with part of quota shared
- Honest, low-ego team with autonomy to ship
- 100% remote with flexible schedule
- Comp: $160,000 - $220,000 USD OTE (base + variable), commensurate with experience

## About Resend

## About Resend

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Resend provides a modern email API for developers to build, test, and send transactional and marketing emails at scale.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, USA
- **Founded**: 2023
- **Founders**: Zeno Rocha (CEO), Bu Kinoshita (CTO), Jonni Lundy

## Core Business
- Primary industry: Developer tools / Email infrastructure (Communication API)
- Target customers: B2B, primarily developers and engineering teams at startups, SMBs, and enterprises
- Mission statement: Reimagine email for the modern web — building the best communication platform for developers

## Products & Services
- **Email API**: A RESTful API for sending transactional and marketing emails at scale, with SDKs for Node.js, Python, PHP, Ruby, Go, Java, Laravel, Rust, and .NET.
- **React Email (open source)**: A library (5.1k+ GitHub stars) that lets developers code email templates using React components instead of outdated HTML layouts.
- **Resend CLI**: Command-line tool for sending emails directly from the terminal.
- **Deliverability Engine**: Infrastructure focused on inbox placement and avoiding spam folders, backed by SOC 2 compliance and GDPR adherence.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Total Funding**: $18M Series A (announced December 4, 2024)
- **Key Metric**: Total funding raised — $18M Series A
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Y Combinator (Winter 2023 batch), with backing from "incredible investors" including Diana Hu (YC primary partner)
- **Growth Signals**: Launched in 2023, grew to 45 team members as of mid-2025; Y Combinator backing; open source community traction (React Email); challenger brand in a market dominated by SendGrid, AWS SES, and Postmark

## Competitive Advantages
- **Developer-first experience**: React-based email components, modern API design, and extensive SDK support set them apart from legacy providers.
- **Open source community**: React Email has strong adoption (5.1k+ stars) and creates a natural pipeline to the paid API.
- **Deliverability focus**: Deep investment in inbox placement technology, a known pain point for developers.
- **Challenger mindset**: Actively rethinking email infrastructure from scratch, not just copying incumbents.

## Strategic Focus
- **Default to action**: Company culture emphasizes shipping fast, iterating quickly, and taking initiative without permission.
- **Remote-first**: Fully remote company with async communication, two annual offsites, and timezone overlap within the Americas.
- **Quality obsession**: Focus on craft, attention to detail, and delighting developers — challenging the "good enough" status quo in email.
- **Growth stage**: Post-Series A, actively hiring across engineering (Backend, Security, Product, Deliverability) to scale the platform.

## Why Work Here
- **Remote-first culture**: Fully remote with async communication, no plans for mandatory offices. Two annual in-person retreats.
- **Engineering philosophy**: "Default to action" — makers ship PRs, not wait for permission. Emphasis on speed, iteration, and quality.
- **Benefits (Global)**: 20 PTO days/year, 12-week family leave, unlimited sick days, 10 holidays/year (choose US or local), $2,000 home office allowance, annual retreat.
- **Benefits (US-only)**: 100% employee / 90% family health/dental/vision coverage, 401K account (no matching), life insurance.
- **Team size**: ~45 people (as of mid-2025) — early-stage energy with significant traction.
- **Culture values**: No ego, confident curiosity, challenge the status quo, use resources available — documented in a public handbook.
