About the role

As a Channel Account Manager for Japan, you will be responsible for building, managing, and scaling strategic partnerships with both System Integrators (SIs) to accelerate the adoption of our solutions in the Japanese enterprise market. You will work at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and Japan's unique business ecosystem, helping partners integrate our products into their solution portfolios and joint go-to-market strategies.

As a Channel Account Manager, you will focus on growing SIers in Japan and achieving quarterly revenue targets through new customers and upsells.
