Account Executive

LAKEORA is a Riyadh-based data and AI advisory firm and a pure-play Databricks partner. We build the governed data platforms that Saudi enterprises run their decisions on, going deep on one platform rather than wide across many, with governance designed in from the start. We are early-stage, flat, and deliberately small. You work directly with customers, own the architecture you design, and see it reach production. We like engineers who are direct, curious, and would rather get something right than get it agreed.

What are we looking for?

We're looking for an Account Executive who can identify opportunities, build relationships, and help organisations understand how data and AI can transform their business.

At LAKEORA, Account Executives are trusted advisors, not transactional salespeople. You'll engage senior decision-makers, understand business challenges, and work closely with technical teams to shape opportunities from first conversation through proposal and close.

Lean team, high visibility, real impact.
