Responsibilities
- Own your territory and the full sales cycle: account prioritization, direct outreach, discovery, technical validation, quantified business value, executive alignment, negotiation, and close.

- Control POCs and POVs with clear success criteria, and build business cases that give buyers a reason to act now.

- Build champions and executive relationships, and navigate security, procurement, finance, and multi-stakeholder buying committees.
- Orchestrate Solutions Engineering, product, executive, and partner resources through close and expansion.
- Keep disciplined account plans, a current CRM, realistic close dates, and forecasts grounded in buyer evidence.
- A sustained record of enterprise quota attainment and personally led new-logo wins, with 7+ years of direct enterprise quota-carrying experience preferred.
- Experience closing multiple technical enterprise deals and carrying a $1.5M+ quota (or comparable responsibility).
- Experience as one of the first one to three sellers building a region, segment, or new-market account focus at an early-stage or category-building company.
- Technical credibility in storage, object storage/S3, data infrastructure, data lake/lakehouse, AI/ML, analytics, HPC, or adjacent platforms.
- A repeatable, metrics-based approach to direct outreach, territory building, and pipeline creation including effective partner co-selling.
- Skill in technical validation, value selling, competitive displacement, executive access, and complex negotiation.
- Entrepreneurial ownership combined with disciplined forecasting, account planning, and collaboration.
Qualification
- Direct object-storage and S3 ecosystem experience.
- AI/ML, lakehouse, analytics, or HPC workload experience.
