As a Strategic Core Account Executive at Databricks, you are a sales professional experienced in leading go-to-market campaigns in Fortune 500 accounts. You know how to sell innovation and change through customer vision expansion and can guide deals forward to compress decision cycles. You love understanding a product in depth and are passionate about communicating value to Customers and System Integrators.

As we continue our rapid expansion, we are looking for a creative, execution-oriented Enterprise Account Executive to join the CPG team and maximize the phenomenal market opportunity that exists for Databricks.

Reporting to our Director of Enterprise Sales, you will manage a strategic enterprise client in the CPG vertical.  You will come with an informed point of view on Big Data, Advanced Analytics and AI which will help to guide your successful execution strategy and allow you to provide genuine value to the client.

The impact you will have: 

  • Build relationships with CIOs, IT executives, LOB executives, Program Managers, and other important partners.
  • Drive value-based growth within the account.
  • Expand the Databricks footprint into new business units and use cases.
  • Exceed activity, pipeline, and revenue targets.

  • Promote Databricks' Data Intelligence Platform powered by Apache Spark™ and Delta Lake
  • Prioritize opportunities and leverage appropriate resources.
  • Build a plan for success internally at Databricks and externally with your account

What we look for:

  • You have previously excelled in an early-stage company -- you know how to navigate and be successful with limited oversight
  • Previous field sales experience within big data, Cloud, SaaS, and a consumption selling motion
  • Prior customer relationships with CIOs, program managers, and essential decision makers at local accounts
  • The ability to simplify a technical capability into a value-based benefit
  • 7+ years of Enterprise Sales experience exceeding quotas in larger accounts
  • Managing a small set of enterprise accounts rather than a broad territory
  • Bachelor's Degree
