About Redpanda

A Redpanda rep carries two stories into the same account: the streaming stack data teams already run (Redpanda Streaming, Redpanda Connect and Redpanda SQL) and the Agentic Data Plane, a governance layer of managed agents, an MCP gateway and an AI gateway for enterprises putting agents onto their own data. Three of the seven sales openings sit in the Sales department: a San Francisco enterprise account executive in a pure hunter seat who works a territory with heavy outbound and forecasts every quarter, a remote solutions engineer who runs demos and proofs of concept, and an Austin BDR who answers inbound inquiries, runs discovery and hands qualified meetings to the AEs. The other four belong to Customer Success: a technical customer success manager measured on net revenue retention, a senior technical engagement manager leading a delivery pod, and two forward deployed engineers who build agents and pipelines on site with customers rather than demo. Six of the seven are in North America, with the San Francisco and Austin seats hybrid at 3 office days a week, and one forward deployed engineer works remotely from the UK. The AE posting asks for 5+ years selling open source and SaaS with cloud or infrastructure software as the floor, and lists MEDDIC and agentic AI deals as pluses.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
