We’ve seen tremendous traction and are growing extremely quickly. Our real-time APIs have helped verify hundreds of millions of identities, starting with financial services and rapidly expanding into new markets.

We have also been named a 2026 FICO Industry Vanguard Decision Award Winner. Last but not least, we’ve even made history - we were the first company to go live with the eCBSV and testified before the United States House of Representatives on the future of identity. SentiLink supports a variety of ways to work, ranging from fully remote to in-office. We operate as a digital-first company with strong collaboration across the U.S. and India.

If you’re located near one of these offices, we would love for you to spend time in the office regularly. Some roles are hybrid or in-office by design. For example, our engineering team in India works primarily from our Gurugram office.

National Account Executive Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions

Most national account executives in California start with a bachelor's degree in business, marketing, communications, or a related field, then build several years of outside or B2B sales experience before moving into national accounts. California employers in technology, life sciences, and enterprise software typically promote from regional or territory sales roles. There is no state-issued license required, but industry certifications such as Certified Sales Professional can strengthen a candidacy in competitive California markets.
How much do national account executives make in California?

Which companies hire national account executives in California?
Employers hiring national account executives in California right now include SentiLink, CVS Health, and Kuehne+Nagel, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. California's concentration of technology headquarters, life sciences firms, and large consumer brands means national accounts roles here often cover high-value enterprise or healthcare clients.
Which California cities have the most national account executive jobs?
Los Angeles, Sacramento, and San Francisco post the most national account executive openings in California. The distribution reflects the state's industry anchors: San Francisco and Silicon Valley drive demand in enterprise software and cloud, Los Angeles concentrates roles in media, entertainment, and consumer goods, and San Diego's strong life sciences and biotech base generates consistent openings in medical device and pharmaceutical national accounts.
Are there remote national account executive jobs in California?
Yes, and more than most sales roles, since national account executives primarily work through calls, virtual presentations, and periodic travel rather than a fixed office. About 40% of national account executive openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting how relationship-driven and travel-intensive the role already is. Strategic account management and sales operations functions within the role tend to be the most fully remote.
How can I get hired as a national account executive in California with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a sales development representative or inside sales role at a California technology or life sciences company, then building toward territory or regional sales before making the move to national accounts. Large California employers like enterprise software firms in San Jose and medical device companies in San Diego commonly hire through rotational sales associate programs designed for recent graduates. A Salesforce certification or demonstrated success in quota-carrying roles, even at smaller companies, gives candidates a measurable edge.
