The Role
We’re looking for a dynamic and driven Channel Sales Director to spearhead partner acquisition, enablement, and direct customer engagement, all while driving adoption of our cutting-edge AI/HPC networking solutions. In this hybrid role, you’ll recruit and manage a diverse ecosystem of partners—including VARs, SIs, and distributors—while acting as a trusted advisor to enterprise customers. This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated professional who thrives in a startup-like environment, blending technical background with business development expertise. If you’re a go-getter with a “hunter” mentality, we want to hear from you!
Key Responsibilities

- Recruit and empower partners (VARs, SIs, distributors) to expand market presence.
- Develop joint business plans, execute quarterly reviews, and foster enthusiasm within partner sales and engineering teams to promote our solutions.
- End-User Engagement:
- Serve as a trusted advisor to enterprise and neo-cloud customers, aligning our solutions with their unique business needs.
- Revenue Growth:
- Drive quarterly sales targets through partner-led and direct sales initiatives.
- Build and monitor a robust partner-driven sales pipeline.
- Enablement:
- Orchestrate impactful training sessions and develop resources like playbooks and pricing guides to ensure partner success.
- Collaboration:
- Work closely with sales, marketing, and product teams to align partner strategies with overall company goals.
Must-Have:
- 10+ years of both direct as well as channel/alliance sales within the Data Center networking or AI&HPC or Storage industries.
- Strong business acumen and the ability to translate technical features into clear business value.
- Proven success in partner recruitment and enablement, driving measurable revenue growth.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to connect with both technical teams and executive stakeholders.
- A tenacious, assertive, and results-driven “hunter” mindset—committed to getting things done!
Nice-to-Have:
- Previous experience as a sales engineer or solutions architect in the HPC or networking space.
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
