- Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing to define and execute joint technology roadmaps.
- Drive integrations, validated architectures, solution development, technical certification, labs, demonstrations, and proof-of-concept capabilities.
- Translate technical innovation into differentiated customer solutions and scalable go-to-market plays.
- Connect the technology partner ecosystem to Commvault's strategy around unified cyber resilience, clean recovery, and ResilienceOps.
- Build scalable routes to market
- Develop the right commercial model for each relationship, including co-sell, OEM, resale, marketplace, consumption, and channel-led motions.
- Activate partner and Commvault sales organizations around priority solutions and accounts.

- Lead at the executive level
- Build trusted relationships with senior executives across our most important technology partners.
- Establish executive sponsorship, governance, and accountability for each strategic relationship.

- Proven ability to generate material revenue and pipeline through technology alliances.
- Experience building and scaling co-sell, OEM, resale, marketplace, and integrated-solution business models.
- Strong understanding of enterprise infrastructure, cloud, cybersecurity, data protection, storage, and emerging technologies.

Success will be measured by business impact, including:
- Partner-sourced and partner-influenced ARR and pipeline
- Co-sell, OEM, and resale revenue
- New-logo acquisition and expansion
- Pipeline conversion, win rates, and average deal size
- Joint-solution adoption and attach rates
- Strategic-account penetration
- Partner seller and technical activation
- Competitive wins
- Return on alliance investments
These measures align closely with the existing strategic partner plans, which emphasize bookings, pipeline coverage, new logos, partner readiness, joint solution adoption, and investment return.
The Leader We Want:
You think like a general manager, not simply an alliance manager. You understand how to connect technology strategy, joint solutions, routes to market, field execution, and revenue.
You know when to invest aggressively and when to make hard portfolio choices. You can move comfortably from a product-roadmap discussion with a CTO to a pipeline review with a CRO. And you know that a strategic partnership only matters when it produces measurable value for customers, partners, and Commvault.
Commvault's values are We Connect, We Inspire, We Care, and We Deliver. We’re looking for a leader who lives those values and can turn ambitious strategic relationships into measurable outcomes.
