About the Role
As an Account Executive at Grafana Labs, you'll be responsible for driving revenue across your assigned segment — identifying, nurturing, and closing opportunities through both outbound prospecting and inbound leads.

What You'll Do

- Manage all aspects of the sales process: discovery, demos, proofs of concept, proposals, negotiations, and account management
- Clearly communicate the value of Grafana Cloud and Grafana Enterprise to technical and business stakeholders
- Maintain a clean, accurate pipeline in Salesforce and manage forecasting, quoting, and order processing
What We're Looking For
- 3+ years of experience in infrastructure technology sales
- Consistent track record of hitting or exceeding quota in a competitive environment
- Experience managing full sales cycles across commercial or enterprise accounts
- Familiarity with Salesforce and structured sales methodologies (Command of the Message, MEDD(P)ICC, or similar)
- Strong communicator — comfortable in person, virtually, and in writing
- Entrepreneurial mindset: adaptable, self-motivated, and collaborative
- Exposure to open source technology is a strong plus
Segments We Hire For
- Commercial (Growth) — expanding Grafana usage within existing mid-market customers
- Commercial (Acquisition) — landing net-new commercial logos
- Enterprise (Growth) — deepening relationships and expanding within strategic enterprise accounts
- Enterprise (Acquisition) — opening and closing net-new enterprise deals
