About M-Files
The pitch M-Files' sellers carry is that documents are found by what they relate to (a customer, a project, a transaction) rather than where they were saved, which makes them ready for workflow automation and AI; the company counts more than 6,000 customer organizations in over 100 countries and is headquartered in Finland. In the US the sales team splits three ways: new-business account executives, account managers who own the installed base, and the technical bench behind both. The three AE seats are cut by buyer: a commercial seat for remote reps on Mountain, Central or Eastern time selling to mid-market and enterprise accounts (energy, utilities and professional services backgrounds preferred), a federal seat hunting civilian, defense and independent agencies, and a state and local seat working net new counties, municipalities, states and special districts. Account managers expand and renew existing customers through QBRs and upsell, sales engineers run discovery, demos and proofs of concept and build integrations against the M-Files APIs, and solution architects in Consulting Services turn discovery into solution designs (that posting asks for daily hands-on use of Claude). Of 15 sales-titled postings, 14 are in the US, with the account manager, sales engineer and solution architect jobs each posted under several cities (Boston, Austin, San Francisco, Boise or remote), and one sales engineer seat is in Oslo for Norway and the Nordics.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
