Now part of IBM, Confluent brings its data streaming platform—built on Apache Kafka and Apache Flink—into IBM’s broader data and AI strategy. Together, IBM and Confluent help organisations connect, process, and govern trusted, real-time data across hybrid environments, giving AI models, agents, and applications the current context they need to operate at scale.

  • A consultative, value-based selling approach, with the ability to connect data, cloud, and AI capabilities to business outcomes.
  • Strong territory planning, account research, opportunity qualification, forecasting, negotiation, and communication skills.
  • Experience selling SaaS, cloud, data infrastructure, integration, analytics, or other enterprise technology solutions.
  • Familiarity with Apache Kafka, data streaming, stream processing, event-driven architectures, or distributed systems.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with IBM and Confluent colleagues, systems integrators, cloud providers, and other partners.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
