  • Travel as needed across the region to support key relationships and deals (20–40%)

What We’re Looking For:

  • Background in consulting or professional services (preferred)
  • Or deep experience selling or implementing observability platforms like Datadog, Dynatrace, App Dynamics, Splunk, or New Relic
  • Entrepreneurial mindset - you thrive in less-structured environments, build your own motion, and hunt for opportunity
  • Proven ability to work independently while staying tightly aligned with internal and external teams
  • Strong presence, emotional intelligence, and ability to build trust with enterprise buyers
  • A likable, credible, and partner-friendly style - you’ll be an extension of the Datadog team in-region
  • Familiarity with SOWs, project scoping, pricing strategies, and services packaging
  • Experience with managed services or recurring services-based revenue models (a plus)

Why Join?
