Mid-Market eCommerce Account Executive

MerchantE, Atlanta, GA, United States


Mid-Market eCommerce Account Executive


About MerchantE

MerchantE (an Omise/OPN company) provides modern acquiring and processing—gateway, risk, tokenization (including network tokens), onboarding/KYB, settlement and reporting—through modular APIs and partner-grade tools. We’re expanding our U.S. presence and hiring a Mid-Market eCommerce Account Executive to win and grow mid-market merchants that need scalable, conversion-focused payments with clear economics and rapid time-to-live.


What You’ll Do

  • Own a named territory and full sales cycle for net-new mid-market eCommerce merchants: outbound prospecting, discovery, solution design, business case, pricing and terms, and close.
  • Articulate outcomes that matter to merchants: higher checkout conversion, improved authorization rates, lower fraud/chargebacks, simplified reconciliation, and faster settlement.
  • Orchestrate multi-threaded engagements with Product, Engineering, Finance, and Risk/Compliance on both sides; run smooth handoffs to Implementation and Merchant Success.
  • Build repeatable motions: persona-based talk tracks, ROI models, proof packages, and reference loops; contribute to playbooks and vertical campaigns.
  • Maintain rigorous pipeline hygiene and forecast accuracy in CRM; deliver predictable results against quota with clear stage definitions and exit criteria.
  • Represent MerchantE at industry events and targeted conferences; create event-sourced pipeline and executive relationships.
  • Capture merchant feedback to influence product roadmap and GTM, especially around eCommerce checkout, authorization optimization, and risk controls.


How Success Will Be Measured

  • New merchants signed and activated processing volume/GMV within agreed ramp timelines.
  • Revenue and margin mix (IC++/MDR economics, take-rate, profitability by deal).
  • Conversion and authorization improvements delivered in early cohorts (where applicable).
  • Pipeline coverage, win rate, sales cycle time, and forecast accuracy.
  • Time from commercial agreement to go-live; quality of handoff to Implementation/Merchant Success.
  • Reference ability/NPS and expansion into additional modules or geographies.


Who You Are

  • 5–8+ years of solution sales in payments/fintech or adjacent SaaS, with a track record closing mid-market eCommerce merchants.
  • Working knowledge of acquiring economics (IC++/MDR), card-not-present flows, auth optimization strategies, risk/fraud tooling (3-D Secure, fraud scoring), tokenization and network tokens, settlement and reconciliation.
  • Technical fluency with APIs, webhooks, and checkout integrations; comfortable whiteboarding flows with product or engineering stakeholders.
  • Commercial and legal comfort: pricing models, MSAs, SLAs, and procurement/legal negotiations.
  • Operator mindset with strong outbound discipline, CRM rigor, and clear territory plans.
  • Executive presence and crisp communication; able to quantify value and build business cases.
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred (Business, Finance, CS/Engineering) or equivalent experience.


What You’ll Get (Why MerchantE)

  • Competitive base salary + uncapped commission with accelerators
  • Benefits: health, dental, vision, and 401(k)
  • High-impact role shaping MerchantE’s mid-market eCommerce franchise
  • Collaborative, high-performance culture with direct access to Product, Risk, and Engineering
  • Professional growth across acquiring, auth optimization, and platform strategy
  • Flexibility (remote or hybrid) and travel for customer meetings and industry events
