• Build and convert qualified new business pipeline into targeted segments.
• Sales Leadership & Coaching
• Set the standard for preparation, product knowledge, and deliberate practice across your team.
• Establish a consistent cadence of call reviews, 1:1’s, deal coaching, and skill-building.
• Hold sellers accountable for activity levels, pipeline hygiene, and execution quality.
• Create a culture where reps are expected to know their accounts, their competitors, and their value proposition cold.
• Sales Motion & Process
• Implement a repeatable sales process motion and buyer profile.
• Help build the infrastructure (playbooks, cadences, qualification criteria) to make performance predictable.
• Own your forecast and deliver it with accuracy.
• Cross-Functional Alignment

• Track record of consistent attainment in mature or competitive markets.
• Experience in PE-backed or resource-constrained environments where execution discipline, not headcount, drives results.
• Familiarity with the open source, developer tools, and/or adjacent infrastructure software markets is a plus, but not a requirement.
• Known as a developer of sellers, not just a manager of results.
• Comfortable with direct, specific feedback. Able to give it in a way that improves performance.
• Sets high standards for preparation and follow-through, and models those standards personally.
• Knows how to hold people accountable without destroying morale.
• Reads deals accurately and coach sellers to do the same.
• Can prioritize ruthlessly across a portfolio without losing the thread on any individual business.
