Tines serves a diverse range of customers, from startups to public companies, including Canva, Databricks, Elastic, Kayak, Intercom, and McKesson. As an integrator across the entire tech stack, Tines is vendor-agnostic integrating with any API-enabled service. This flexibility enables our customers to achieve their highest-priority goals faster. And because Tines is secure and private by design, it's popular with security, IT, engineering, finance, and other security-focused teams.

At Tines, we're driven by our values of Simplicity, Speed, and Soundness.

• Develop and execute business plans with priority resellers, distributors, systems integrators, services partners, and technology alliance partners.
• Take commercial accountability for partner-driven pipeline, revenue, opportunity progression, and account outcomes.
• Work with Public Sector account executives and sales engineers to develop and advance partner-led opportunities.
• Coordinate Sales, Sales Engineering, Marketing, Services, Alliances, Sales Operations, and partners around priority accounts and programs.
• Use partner intelligence, relationships, contract vehicles, services, and technology alliances to strengthen our position in priority opportunities.
• Establish a consistent cadence of partner engagement, field activity, enablement, measurement, and follow-through.

What You Bring With You

• 10+ years of relevant experience in partner sales, channel sales, alliances, business development, or Public Sector sales, or equivalent experience demonstrating senior-level commercial ownership.
• Significant experience owning partner or channel sales motions involving Federal civilian, Department of Defense, or intelligence community organizations.
• A record of delivering measurable pipeline and revenue through partners.
• Experience building or scaling a partner motion for an emerging technology vendor or startup.
• Strong knowledge of the Federal partner ecosystem, including resellers, distributors, systems integrators, services partners, and technology alliance partners.
• Experience developing strategic partner business plans and navigating Federal procurement, contract vehicles, and partner-led routes to market.
• The ability to position a technical platform and lead complex cross-functional initiatives without direct authority.
• Strong executive communication, operational rigor, and the ability to manage a high volume of activity.
• The ability to meet the travel requirements, including frequent in-person engagement in the Washington, DC area.

Experience across multiple Federal segments, SLED partner sales, FedRAMP, regulated Public Sector procurement, Salesforce, or cloud and enterprise software will help you succeed.
