Automat-it is an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner (All-In AWS) specializing in DevOps, FinOps, and GenAI services for high-growth startups and scaleups. With 260+ employees across EMEA and the US and 800+ clients in our portfolio, we combine the stability of a mature, profitable business with genuine startup energy.
We are expanding into the US market with a dedicated presence in New York City. Our US team is approximately seven months established, with Solutions Architects, Account Executives, and BDRs already onboarded. We are now hiring a Sales Director to lead the commercial expansion and build on this foundation.
Automat-it is backed by a multi-year Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) with AWS - a $1.4B, four-year commitment that signals the scale and ambition of our partnership. This provides significant go-to-market leverage, co-selling opportunities, and long-term investment certainty for the US expansion.
This is a greenfield builder role with full commercial ownership. You will develop Automat-it’s US client base, manage our AWS vendor relationship at a strategic level, and build a high-performing local sales team over time.
Your target buyers are CTOs and VP R&Ds at startups and scaleups. These are technical decision-makers who value deep expertise, speed of execution, and trusted partnerships - all areas where Automat-it has a strong track record.
Work location: hybrid from New York
