- Experience navigating complex buying processes and working comfortably with multiple stakeholders across an organization.
- Actively uses AI tools for account research, outreach personalization, and deal prep as a standard part of how you work.
- A working knowledge of how developers think and operate (SDLC, cloud infrastructure, open-source ecosystems) without needing to code yourself.

- Time spent in a high-growth startup or scaling environment where you built your own playbook.
- Demonstrated success with land-and-expand strategies or growing existing accounts through proactive outreach.
- Familiarity with modern enterprise sales frameworks (MEDDPICC, Challenger, etc.).
- A track record of consistently hitting quota or exceeding targets.
- Experience building credibility with engineering teams based on genuine knowledge and curiosity, not just relationships or brand recognition.
