Zendesk is hiring a Senior SMB Account Executive to grow its SMB base in SaaS by acquiring new customers and expanding existing relationships through data-driven prospecting and value-based selling. Responsibilities include driving top-line revenue, nurturing relationships for retention, cross-selling additional products, maintaining a robust Salesforce pipeline, delivering forecasts, and collaborating with internal teams to optimize sales strategies. Requirements include a BA/BS or equivalent, 4+ years of B2B SaaS sales or solution engineering experience with a proven track record, strong presentation and negotiation skills, prospecting and territory planning abilities, and familiarity with Salesforce and Clari. The role is hybrid, requiring some in-office presence with the schedule determined by the hiring manager, plus remote work part of the week, with Zendesk offices worldwide for in-person collaboration. Zendesk highlights equal opportunity and inclusion, notes that AI or automated decision systems may screen applications, and provides accommodations for disabilities via a designated email contact.

Zendesk is transitioning from “Systems of Record” to “Systems of Action” with the Resolution Platform, aiming to be the first CX company to secure $1B in AI-driven revenue and solve the Orchestration Trap by building a high-performance runtime for fleets of AI Agents that Perceive, Reason, and Act. You will operate at the cutting edge of large language models, planning algorithms, and multi-agent coordination, designing memory structures and autonomous learning mechanisms to bridge offline model capabilities with dynamic, real-world task execution. We have production AI agents that autonomously resolve customer service tickets across 100,000+ Zendesk accounts, planning multi-step resolutions, executing live API actions, and closing tickets without human intervention, using a proprietary iterative architecture and a self-learning loop that synthesizes successful resolutions into new skills; our GAIA-class benchmarks show parity with top results, and our internal suite of 158+ scenario tests includes regression detection on every deploy. We need help pushing the architecture further by solving open questions on plan decomposition for ambiguous goals, memory tier interference under concurrent sessions, selective skill acquisition, and multi-agent delegation via an Agent-to-Agent protocol, plus domain-specialized models with RL on production trajectories—a 6-12 month build requiring ownership of both science and systems. Requirements include 5+ years building production ML/AI systems with hands-on agent architectures (not just LangChain), strong evaluation instincts, optional RL depth for language models, Python and PyTorch fluency, familiarity with at least one agent framework, and Zendesk’s commitment to inclusion, hybrid work, AI screening, equal opportunity employment, and accommodations for disabilities.

Zendesk’s mission is to power exceptional service worldwide using AI-informed technology that humanizes customer interactions at scale.

Ideal candidates have 2+ years in B2B SaaS sales or solutions engineering, strong technical aptitude for value-driven conversations about software integrations, the ability to build relationships across organizations, and a growth mindset; formal degrees are not strictly required. Zendesk promotes a hybrid work culture with learning and mentorship, equal opportunity and inclusion, and uses AI screening in the applicant process; they encourage applicants who may not meet every point and offer accommodations.

Responsibilities include advocating a user-centric approach, influencing senior stakeholders, defining OKRs and success metrics, and scaling services to handle thousands of rule executions with minimal impact on infrastructure. Basic qualifications include a bachelor’s degree, 5+ years of product management experience delivering customer-focused SaaS products, full-stack understanding, strong collaboration and communication skills, and a data-driven decision-making mindset.
