Join Dash0 and help us define the future of observability. We are OpenTelemetry-native, building a delightful, simple, and AI-centric platform that eliminates vendor lock-in and meaningless toil. Shape a product that developers love—all with transparent pricing and cost-control built in.
The Opportunity

What You'll Do
Drive the full sales cycle from initial contact to close, with a primary focus on acquiring new logos in the commercial and mid-market segments across EMEA.

Master and articulate the value of the Dash0 platform to technical leaders — VPs of Engineering, SREs, and Platform Engineers.
Strategically prospect into target accounts, creatively mapping organizations to identify key decision-makers and champions.
Partner closely with Sales Development and Marketing to generate a robust pipeline of qualified opportunities.
Conduct compelling product demonstrations and manage technical validation cycles (POCs) that showcase how Dash0 solves critical customer pain points.
Utilize modern sales methodologies like MEDDPICC to ensure a repeatable, scalable sales process.
Maintain meticulous records and provide accurate forecasting in our CRM.
What You Bring
2+ years of quota-carrying experience in a closing role within B2B technology sales, preferably in infrastructure, DevOps, or observability.
A demonstrated history of consistently meeting or exceeding sales targets in a competitive environment.
