About DevRev

At DevRev, we're building the future of work with Computer – your AI teammate. Unlike traditional tools, Computer unifies all your data sources, tools, and workflows into a single AI-ready platform, giving employees real-time insights, proactive suggestions, and powerful agentic actions.

We call this Team Intelligence: human-AI collaboration that breaks down silos, brings people back together, and frees you to solve bigger problems. Backed by Khosla Ventures and Mayfield with $150M+ raised, DevRev is trusted by global companies across industries.

About the role

We're looking for a Channel Partner Manager with a startup mindset and a builder's instinct. You'll own the full lifecycle of partner relationships end to end — from acquisition through business outcomes — with no hand-offs and no waiting for someone else to figure it out. You'll identify and recruit high-potential partners, onboard them effectively, build joint business and channel plans, develop co-created solutions, and relentlessly measure and drive results. This isn't a maintain-the-program role. It's a build-the-program role — high-impact, high-visibility, and central to DevRev's go-to-market expansion across the United States.

What you'll do
  • Drive partner acquisition — Identify, prospect, and recruit high-value channel partners (VARs, resellers, SIs, and technology alliances) aligned with DevRev's ICP and growth strategy.

  • Own partner onboarding end to end — Design and execute a structured onboarding experience that gets partners productive fast — including technical readiness, sales alignment, and go-to-market activation.

  • Build and drive business plans — Co-develop joint business plans and channel plans with each partner, setting clear revenue targets, pipeline commitments, and milestones.

  • Measure and drive business outcomes — Define partner KPIs, track pipeline contribution, revenue attainment, and deal velocity. Hold partners accountable and course-correct when results fall short.

  • Develop joint solutions — Work with partners and DevRev's product team to co-create integrated solutions, use cases, and offerings that differentiate in the market and accelerate customer adoption.

  • Enable continuously — Deliver ongoing training, certifications, and enablement programs that deepen partner expertise and independence.

  • Align with direct sales — Collaborate closely with DevRev's sales organization to coordinate on accounts, avoid channel conflict, and maximize co-sell impact.

  • Advocate internally — Be the voice of your partners inside DevRev, working with marketing, product, and customer success to ensure partner needs are met.

  • Represent DevRev externally — Attend partner events, QBRs, and industry conferences to strengthen relationships and build brand presence.

What we're looking for
  • 4–7 years of experience in channel sales, partner management, or alliances — ideally in SaaS or enterprise software.

  • Startup mindset — you operate with urgency, resourcefulness, and zero entitlement. You don't wait for playbooks; you write them.

  • Builder at heart — you've created something from scratch before (a partner program, a territory, a team) and you're energized by ambiguity, not paralyzed by it.

  • End-to-end owner — you take full accountability from strategy through execution through outcomes. No "that's not my job" in your vocabulary.

  • Proven track record of acquiring partners and scaling those relationships into measurable revenue.

  • Experience building joint business plans and holding partners to outcome-based metrics.

  • Strong understanding of the SaaS go-to-market landscape and partner ecosystem dynamics.

  • Excellent communicator — comfortable presenting to C-level stakeholders at partner organizations.

  • Based in or willing to work from New York or Texas.

Nice to have
  • Experience co-developing joint solutions or integrations with channel partners.

  • Background in CRM, customer support, or DevOps tooling.

  • Existing relationships with SIs or resellers in the mid-market or enterprise space.

What we offer
  • Competitive base salary + commission structure.

  • Equity participation.

  • Full benefits package.

  • Opportunity to shape DevRev's partner program from the ground up.

This role can be based in NY, NJ or Dallas.
