Position Summary
Marqeta is looking for a highly motivated Account Executive who is
passionate about scaling the success of our Fintech, Financial
Institution and Embedded Finance businesses. This exciting role is
ideal for individuals seeking to go deep in all aspects of complex
business and technical engagements and will span multiple areas of
development: (1) cultivating and managing relationships with
executives and entrepreneurs seeking to innovate and disrupt B2B &
consumer payments; (2) working closely with internal stakeholders
in Product, Legal, Compliance and Delivery to define solutions that
will empower our customers; and (3) originating new customer
opportunities, responding to inbound opportunities, and shepherding
deals from opening through to contract and closing stage.
The Business Development team at Marqeta focuses on the largest and
most impactful commercial opportunities in Marqeta's evolving
business. These customers include challenger banks, fintech
innovators and traditional financial institutions, all looking for
solutions to launch, scale and continuously evolve their banking
products and services. Key to this role is an ability to understand

understand the basics of how SaaS and platform technology companies
work, and be able to communicate technical and product benefits to
both sophisticated and unsophisticated buyers.
