Cloud Partner Sales Manager
Join the company that’s building the telemetry infrastructure for the AI era. At Cribl, we partner with IT and Security teams at many of the world’s biggest enterprises, including half of the Fortune 100, to bridge the gap between AI ambition and infrastructure reality.

We’re one of the fastest‑growing private companies and a leading player in a massive, fast‑moving market. With a global workforce, we’re remote‑first and grounded in a simple idea: software is a people business. Cribl is the place where curious, collaborative people can do their best work, grow fast, and bring their full selves to the herd.
Why You’ll Love This Role
The Cloud Partner Sales Manager builds and executes joint go-to-market plans with AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The role grows partner-sourced and partner-influenced revenue by connecting Cribl’s sales teams with CSP field, executive, and technical organizations and advancing co-sell, marketplace, and customer adoption opportunities.
You will act as the key connector between internal enterprise sales teams and external CSP ecosystems. By cultivating executive, field sales, and technical relationships, you will align key cloud sales plays, oversee joint account mapping, and lead co-selling initiatives to drive top-line pipeline growth and customer adoption.
This is a remote role with a preference for candidates located in the Northeast.
