About the Team

Rain is seeking a seasoned Account Manager to join our team, with a dedicated focus on our most strategic accounts. These relationships carry outsized revenue and reputational weight for Rain and require a high-touch, white-glove, deeply relationship-driven servicing model. In this role, you will be a key player in managing these top accounts end-to-end: driving expansions and renewals, leading QBRs, and ensuring Rain shows up as the best possible partner at every stage of the relationship. You will operate in a player-coach model, working closely alongside our existing senior and enterprise account managers.

  • Provide data-driven insights to enhance the user experience and ensure companies are making the most out of Rain's products

  • Set the enterprise account management operating rhythm: weekly account health reviews, escalation triage, and internal and third-party coordination on behalf of partners

  • Build the playbook for what dedicated enterprise servicing and relationship management looks like at Rain

  • Senior roles at both large enterprises and startup or scale-up companies. Demonstrated ability to identify process improvements, build scalable solutions, and thrive in fast-moving, iterative environments

Bonus attributes:

  • Experience standing up a new team or function from scratch, rather than inheriting an existing one

  • Deep familiarity with stablecoins, cross-border payments infrastructure, and card issuing ecosystems

  • Existing network across fintech, banking, payments, stablecoin, or broader financial infrastructure ecosystems
