About vCluster Labs
We are a venture‑backed tech startup striving to be the leading force in enabling platform engineers. We raised +$30M from top‑tier VCs such as Khosla Ventures and are in a hyper‑growth phase looking for motivated people to complement our team. Our headquarters are in San Francisco (Salesforce Tower), but our team is distributed around the globe and we have a remote‑first work culture.

Responsibilities
- Strategic Territory Management: Own a dedicated patch of Enterprise accounts and build a comprehensive territory plan to uncover new opportunities and expand existing footprints.
- Full‑Cycle Execution: Manage the entire sales lifecycle from prospecting and discovery to negotiation and close. You are a "Hunter" who enjoys the thrill of the chase yet executes with the precision of a consultant.
- Multi‑Threaded Selling: Navigate complex organizations to build consensus across technical champions (Dev/Ops/Security practitioners) and executive economic buyers (CTO, CIO, CISO, CFO).
- Value Engineering: Go beyond feature/function selling and articulate a clear "Business Value Assessment" (BVA) that ties our technical capabilities to the customer's top‑line revenue or bottom‑line efficiency.
- Methodical Forecasting: Maintain hygiene in Salesforce/CRM and use MEDDPICC or Command of the Message to provide accurate weekly, monthly, and quarterly forecasts.
Qualifications
- Experience: 7+ years of quota‑carrying field sales experience, with at least 3+ years selling specifically to the Enterprise ($100k–$1M+ ACV).
- Technical Aptitude: You don’t need to code, but you must be "technically fluent" and hold your ground in a conversation with a VP of Engineering or Chief Architect.
- Methodology Mastery: You live and breathe sales methodology and can clearly explain how you use MEDDPICC/MEDDIC to qualify deals and de‑risk your pipeline.
- Consistency: A documented history of performing in the top 10–20% of your cohort, with President’s Club awards and consistent quota over‑achievement.
- Start‑Up Grit: Experience working in a high‑growth environment (Series B to IPO phase) and comfortable with ambiguity while building the playbook.
Bonus points for
- Domain Expertise: Proven track record of selling complex SaaS/PaaS solutions. Experience in DevOps, Infrastructure, Data, Observability, or Cybersecurity is highly preferred.
- Startup Experience: You have been at an early‑stage organization where you controlled your own desk, function autonomously, and built something great.
- Partnership Experience: Successful track record of building equitable relationships with new partners.
Benefits
- Competitive Salary: Including equity.
- Platinum‑Level Insurance: Health, dental, vision, and life insurance for you and eligible dependents (benefits vary by country).
