About Maze

Maze is the user research platform that helps companies build the right products faster by making user insights available at the speed of product development.

In most companies, research demand far exceeds supply. Time, cost, and lack of access to expertise hold teams back. In today’s AI-powered world, anyone can build a product fast. The real challenge? Deeply understanding user needs and building the right product. That’s where Maze comes in.

We believe companies shouldn’t have to choose between building fast and building right. Maze makes research accessible, intuitive, and fast so product teams can put user insights at the center of every decision.

Our platform enables researchers, designers, and product managers to quickly recruit participants, run studies autonomously, and surface insights that actually drive product decisions. Our AI capabilities automate the busywork and add depth and direction to the insights themselves.

That’s why Maze was recently named the #1 user research platform in UX Tools’ Design Tools Survey—and why we’re scaling fast across industries like B2B SaaS, e-Commerce, Financial Services, Retail, and Automotive, supporting world class customers such as Uber, Amazon, Atlassian, Anthropic & more.

Maze is a Series B company backed by top-tier investors (Felicis, Emergence & Amplify). We operate a global remote workforce driven by our core values.

About the Role:

The Renewals Account Manager will be the commercial engine behind our high-volume renewal base, primarily across our SMB and Commercial segments. You’ll own a large book of business, partner closely with AEs and CSMs, and ensure timely, predictable renewals while uncovering expansion opportunities.

You’ll thrive here if you’re operationally strong, commercially sharp, and energized by improving processes that increase efficiency and retention at scale. This is a role for someone who brings structure, clarity, and rigor to a fast-moving, remote-first environment.

What You’ll Do

Renewal Ownership

• Own the full renewal lifecycle: outreach → discovery → negotiation → quoting → signature.

• Manage ~50+ renewals per quarter with accuracy and clear communication.

• Maintain reliable forecasting for the current and next quarter.

• Ensure alignment with pricing guardrails, discounting policies, and approval workflows.

• Demonstrate high attention to detail in pricing, quoting, and commercial documentation.

Customer Engagement

• Serve as the primary point of contact for renewal and commercial discussions.

• Conduct proactive outreach 90–180 days before renewal.

• Manage objections, negotiate terms, and ensure a smooth, professional renewal experience.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner with AEs on qualifying expansion opportunities and structuring multi-year or multi-product deals.

• Partner with Marketing on targeted communications and renewal readiness campaigns.

• Surface trends—risk indicators, expansion themes, segment insights—to GTM leaders.

Commercial Strategy & Operational Excellence

• Identify low-effort add-ons, term extensions, and expansion signals.

• Maintain impeccable Salesforce hygiene; leverage dashboards to manage pipeline, prioritization, and risk.

• Contribute to scalable renewal workflows, templates, and playbooks.

About You

Inclusivity and Pay

At Maze, we are dedicated to building an equitable, inclusive, and authentic workspace. Unique and diverse perspectives are welcomed, and continuous growth is encouraged. We believe that people are more than their resumes, so if your past experience looks different than the criteria listed, we'd still love to hear from you. We appreciate and celebrate non-traditional life routes and encourage you to apply should you connect with a job description or the Maze culture.

Maze values transparency and it enables us to approach compensation equitably across the world. We are informed by data and regularly check our salary ranges (either United States or Rest of World) against other venture backed companies. Additionally, we are proud of our holistic and generous benefits offerings, included in every compensation package.

Your salary is dependent upon many factors, including years of experience, expertise, etc. During your first interview, you can expect to have an open conversation with your recruiter regarding your compensation expectations.

Why Maze is unique

• Early-stage startup: You will join an early-stage startup with less than 150 team members. This means you'll have the unique opportunity to directly impact success and help shape the future of Maze.

• Market disruption: We believe that the way companies build products is fundamentally broken and the user research market is ripe for disruption. For too long, companies have been forced to choose between rapid development without user insights or investing months into research before bringing products to market. But there's finally a groundswell building around a path forward that eliminates this compromise - and Maze is leading the charge.

• Product-market Fit: Maze is used by 100,000+ brands across 4,000 companies, from SMB to enterprises, and in the last fiscal year, we saw 6.5M questions answered, supporting 25K decisions
