• Enterprise Sales Execution: Drive and close large, complex deals across industries such as finance, telecom, manufacturing, and public sector.
• Customer Lifecycle Ownership: Collaborate with global CS, support, and solutions engineering to deliver an exceptional customer experience from onboarding through renewal.

• Ability to navigate long, consultative enterprise sales cycles and lead teams selling to CDOs, CTOs, and enterprise architects.
• Strong operational acumen and experience building full regional teams from the ground up.
