Senior Account Executive, Apps and Gaming

Proxima is the Conversion Intelligence platform for ecommerce. Powered by a proprietary Commerce Graph spanning 73M unique buyers across 2,200 ecommerce brands, representing $60B in cross-brand transactional signals, we help teams understand what actually drives conversion across the broader market, and turn those signals into clear creative direction. Our data is behavior-based, not survey- or panel-driven, and not modeled intent — it's built on observed, cross-brand buying behavior, continuously updated in real time. Headquartered in New York City, we're a team of operators, builders, and ecommerce veterans who've built and scaled 8 companies across commerce, data, and growth, now solving the hardest problems in modern customer acquisition.

About the Role

You’ll join Proxima as the inaugural Senior Account Executive for our new mobile vertical — owning outbound and full-cycle sales into mobile gaming studios, social casinos, and app developers. You’ll show UA and growth leaders how Proxima's Commerce Graph and targeting tools improve campaign performance and scale acquisition, while defining the playbook as you go. This is the right role if you’re a builder, want real autonomy, direct revenue ownership, and the upside that comes with getting in early on a new vertical.

This is a Hybrid role for candidates in the NYC area with option for remote candidates based in the US.
