About the role

- Own and drive the team's revenue targets, pipeline, and forecasting cadence.
- Personally close high-priority deals while developing your team's ability to do the same.

- Partner with Sales Development, Marketing, and Solutions Architecture to generate and convert pipeline.
- Implement structured coaching, deal reviews, and pipeline management disciplines.
What You Bring
- 5+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience, with at least 2 years in a leadership role managing a commercial or mid-market sales team.
- A consistent track record of exceeding team revenue targets.
- Experience building or scaling a sales team from the ground up — hiring, onboarding, and coaching AEs.
- Strong deal execution skills with a command of value-based sales methodologies (MEDDPICC, Command of the Message, or similar).
- Ability to operate as a player-coach — leading by example in the field while developing your team.
- Outstanding communication and presentation skills.
Nice to Have
- Experience selling observability, DevOps, or cloud-native infrastructure products.
- Familiarity with the OpenTelemetry ecosystem.
- Existing relationships with mid-market technology leaders in the US.
- Experience in a high-growth, venture-backed startup environment.
