2.Strategic Account Management
- Engage senior stakeholders across Engineering, Product, Technology, Digital, Marketing and

- Build multi-threaded relationships within strategic accounts.




- Understand customer business and technical challenges and position Gumlet around measurable business outcomes.
- Lead complex evaluations, POCs, commercial negotiations, and procurement processes.
- Develop account strategies for large opportunities and strategic logos.

3.Consultative & Technical Selling
- Run high-quality discovery conversations that uncover business, technical, and commercial

pain points.
- Translate Gumlet's technical capabilities into clear business value.
- Work closely with Solutions Engineering, Product, and Customer Success teams to create

- Become an expert in the media infrastructure, image optimization, video delivery, CDN, and

- Partner with SDR/BDR teams to define target accounts and outbound strategies.
- Provide market intelligence to Product, Marketing, and Leadership.
- Help scale Gumlet's enterprise sales motion across APAC.

Growth Opportunities:

This role is designed for someone who wants more than just a quota-carrying AE position. As one of the senior members of the APAC sales organization, you will have the opportunity to:

- Build a region: Help shape Gumlet's APAC enterprise GTM strategy from the ground up.
- Own strategic accounts:



Work on $20K to $100K+ ARR opportunities with some of the region's largest digital businesses.
- Influence product: Bring enterprise customer insights directly to Product and Engineering leadership.
- Build sales plays: Identify winning use cases, industries, and messaging that can become repeatable GTM motions.

- Excellent communication, presentation and negotiation skills.
- Ability to understand and confidently discuss technical products with Engineering/Technology stakeholders.
- Experience selling into APAC markets is strongly preferred.
- A builder's mindset - someone who enjoys creating new sales motions rather than simply

following an established playbook.

Why Gumlet :

- If you are looking for a role where you can close large enterprise deals, work directly with leadership, influence product and GTM strategy, and eventually build a regional sales organization, this is an opportunity to have a disproportionate impact.
- You won't just be selling into a market, you'll have the opportunity to help build the market for Gumlet.
