About MariaDB
MariaDB's account executives sell paid subscriptions, support and services around the open source MariaDB database (the self-managed Enterprise Platform, MariaDB Cloud and the GridGain in-memory platform it now owns) into a user base it says includes 75% of the Fortune 500. Sales is cut by region (EMEA, North America, APAC) and by motion: enterprise account executives hunt new and expansion business in named territories (the UK, the Nordics, the US Northeast) using MEDDPICC and travel up to 20% of the time, while high velocity account executives in Romania and on the US West Coast chase SMB and mid-market new logos at volume through outbound calls and virtual demos. BDRs in Romania qualify inbound leads and cold prospect to set meetings for the AEs, with French, German, Spanish or Arabic an advantage, and an enterprise customer success manager in Malaysia owns onboarding, adoption and renewals for a portfolio. Of the 10 sales-titled openings, seven are in Europe (two in London, one of them selling GridGain, a Nordic enterprise role posted in Sweden, Norway and Finland, and two in Romania), two are remote in the US and one is in Malaysia.
