Your focus will be on working closely with Databricks field sellers and MathCo account teams to advance current pursuits, uncover new opportunities, and expand the partnership across strategic enterprise clients.

The ideal candidate understands how to operate within the Databricks partner ecosystem and has experience selling data, analytics, AI, cloud, engineering, or technology consulting services into large enterprises.

• Proactively engage Databricks sellers to identify customer priorities where MathCo’s consulting, AI, analytics, data, and engineering capabilities can help accelerate client outcomes.
• Manage the day-to-day co-sell motion across joint opportunities, including introductions, discovery sessions, account planning, solutioning, proposals, follow-ups, and opportunity progression.
• Partner with MathCo sales and account leaders to develop Databricks-sourced and Databricks-influenced pipeline across existing and new clients.
• Support joint pursuits in areas such as:

• Maintain accurate visibility into partnership pipeline, opportunity progression, forecast, blockers, wins, and partner-sourced revenue.
• Identify successful co-sell patterns that can be replicated across additional Databricks accounts and sellers.
• Support joint client workshops, executive meetings, industry events, seller enablement, and field activities where they contribute to commercial opportunities.
• Help increase awareness of MathCo within the Databricks field organization so that Databricks sellers proactively bring MathCo into relevant client conversations.
