About Port:

Port is the Agentic SDLC Platform. The way engineering teams build software is constantly evolving, and every new wave - such as AI agents operating across the SDLC- makes engineering more powerful, but also more complex and chaotic.

Port turns that chaos into control: one platform to build, govern, and operate the software development lifecycle, enabling every team to move as fast as technology allows.

Following our $100M Series C funding round, we are entering an exciting stage of significant growth and global expansion. As a product-led company, we believe the recipe for success is a world-class product that speaks for itself.

About your Day-to-Day:

Port is looking for a Channel Manager to help grow and manage our partner ecosystem across North America.

Day to day, you will collaborate with partners across North America to identify opportunities, support joint sales motions, and ensure partners are enabled with the tools and training needed to drive revenue.
