The Opportunity
Dash0 is experiencing rapid growth and we're looking for a Commercial Account Executive to drive our expansion across the DACH region. This is a high-impact role where you'll be responsible for acquiring and closing new logos, building our presence in a key market, and helping define the sales motion at a category-defining startup.

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.
