Databricks is seeking a Lakebase Sales Specialist Account Executive to help customers modernize their operational data foundation with Databricks Lakebase, our fully-managed Postgres offering for intelligent applications. This high-impact role sits within the Lakebase Go-To-Market team and partners closely with regional Account Executives to drive adoption of Lakebase with platform, application, and data teams.

Lakebase gives customers a unified, governed foundation for operational workloads and AI-native applications, helping them move away from a fragmented estate of point databases toward a modern, scalable, serverless Postgres service. If you want to be at the forefront of operational databases for AI and intelligent applications at one of the fastest-growing data and AI companies in the world, this is your opportunity.

The impact you will have

• Drive new Lakebase revenue by identifying, qualifying, and closing Lakebase opportunities within a defined territory, in partnership with regional Account Executives and the broader account team.
• Lead with outcomes for key Lakebase personas — including platform teams and developers, data teams, and central IT — articulating how Lakebase helps them ship features faster, simplify operational data architectures, and improve governance and cost efficiency.
• Sell the value of fully-managed Postgres for intelligent applications, positioning Lakebase as the optimal choice for operational workloads that power real-time, AI-driven experiences.
• Run complex, multi-threaded sales cycles from discovery and value hypothesis through commercial negotiation and close, navigating executive, technical, and line-of-business stakeholders.
• Orchestrate proof-of-value and POCs that validate Lakebase’s benefits for OLTP-style workloads, reverse ETL, and AI/ML-driven applications, in partnership with solution architects and specialists.
• Compete and win against legacy and cloud-native operational databases by leveraging our compete assets, benchmarks, and customer references.
• Align to measurable business outcomes such as performance, developer productivity, time-to-market for new features, cost reduction, and simplification of the operational data landscape.
• Partner cross-functionally with Product Management, Marketing, Customer Success, and Partner teams to shape territory plans, launch plays, and co-selling motions with key ISVs and GSIs.
• Enable the field by sharing Lakebase best practices, success stories, and sales motions with broader sales teams, helping scale Lakebase proficiency across the organization.

What success looks like in this role

This role requires the ability to operate across two key motions simultaneously:

• Establish top strategic focus accounts by engaging application development teams to create net-new intelligent applications leveraging Lakebase.
• Drive longer-term Postgres standardization and migration within Databricks' most strategic accounts.

Candidates should demonstrate how they can act as a force multiplier across multiple dimensions of the business.

Success in this role requires strength in four areas:

1. Business ownership – Operate at a business-unit level by tracking revenue, pipeline, and key observations, and by identifying areas needing additional focus or support.
2. Strategic account engagement – Partner with account teams to engage priority accounts across the global DB700, driving strategic opportunities from initial engagement through successful outcomes.
3. Field enablement – Build and execute enablement plans that empower AEs and SAs to confidently carry the Lakebase conversation even when the specialist is not present.
4. Market voice and thought leadership – Develop an internal and external presence by contributing to global AMAs and internal forums, and by representing Databricks at key first- and third-party events.

The interview process is designed to evaluate candidates across all four of these dimensions.

What we look for

• 7+ years of enterprise SaaS sales experience, consistently exceeding quota in complex, multi-stakeholder deals.
• Proven success selling data platforms, operational databases (e.g., Postgres, MySQL, cloud-native DBaaS), or adjacent data/AI infrastructure to technical buyers and business leaders.
• Strong understanding of modern data and application architectures, including cloud-native services, microservices, event-driven systems, and how operational data underpins AI and analytics strategies.
• Ability to sell to both technical stakeholders (developers, architects, data engineers) and business stakeholders (product leaders, operations, line-of-business owners).
• Demonstrated experience leading specialist or overlay motions, working jointly with core Account Executives to create and progress opportunities.
• Executive presence with the ability to whiteboard architectures, lead C-level conversations, and build trust with senior decision makers.
• Strong value selling skills: adept at discovering pain, building a business case, and tying technical capabilities to clear, quantified outcomes.
• Excellent communication, storytelling, and negotiation skills, with comfort presenting to both large and small audiences.
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience selling Postgres, operational databases, OLTP workloads, or transactional cloud database services, ideally within large or strategic accounts.
• Familiarity with data platforms, lakehouse architectures, and cloud ecosystems (AWS, Azure, GCP), including how operational databases fit within broader data and AI strategies.
• Understanding of reverse ETL, real-time decisioning, and operational analytics use cases, and how they drive value for customer-facing and internal applications.
• Exposure to AI-native and agent-driven applications that depend on low-latency, highly scalable operational data services.
• Prior experience in a high-growth, category-creating environment, helping shape new plays, messaging, and customer narratives.
• Experience collaborating with partners and ISVs to drive joint pipeline and co-sell motions.

This description is intended to outline the core responsibilities and qualifications for the Lakebase Account Executive role. Actual responsibilities may evolve as the Lakebase product and go-to-market motions continue to grow and mature.

As we continue our rapid expansion across Central Europe, we are looking for a creative, execution‑oriented Strategic Account Executive to join the team in Germany and maximise the phenomenal market opportunity that exists for Databricks within the insurance vertical. Reporting to our Senior Director of Enterprise Sales, you will focus on building relationships and closing new business opportunities within one of Germany’s largest Reinsurers, based in Munich. You will be part of an account team supporting this highly strategic client. Leveraging your consultative sales experience in the Insurance/FSI vertical, you will help shape the data and AI strategy, identify and progress high-value opportunities, and deliver tangible business outcomes.

The impact you will have:

• You will turn that strategy into action, executing with urgency and discipline to consistently overachieve your targets.

• You will build boardroom‑level relationships, becoming the trusted advisor on all things data and AI for senior stakeholders up to and including C‑level.

• You will uncover and shape new business, expanding use cases and driving deeper platform consumption across your account.

• You will orchestrate the full Databricks ecosystem, mobilising internal teams to maximise impact and customer value.

• You will demonstrate compelling value in every engagement, leading confident, insight‑led negotiations that take opportunities all the way to close.

What we look for

• A proven record of exceeding revenue targets in complex enterprise sales environments.

• Recognised insurance domain expertise, applied to expanding strategic Insurance/FSI accounts in Germany through deep understanding of regulatory, risk, and compliance dynamics.

• Proven success selling data, analytics, big data, AI, or other highly technical cloud software solutions through complex, multi-stakeholder, multi-year enterprise sales cycles

• The ability to identify high-impact data and AI use cases and engage key buying centres to expand Databricks’ footprint and strategic relevance within an organisation.

• Strong understanding of consumption-based, land-and-expand models, with the ability to drive sustained growth within a single strategic account.

• Demonstrated ability to create and shape demand, translating customer priorities into measurable business value.

• Disciplined use of sales methodologies such as MEDDPICC, account planning, Value Selling, or Command of the Message, combined with strong pipeline management and accurate forecasting.

• A track record of building executive-level champions and cross-functional account teams to execute against a defined account and territory strategy.

• Experience developing and executing partner strategies that extend reach, accelerate deal velocity, and support complex enterprise opportunities.

• Willing and able to travel to customer sites, company and industry events - regionally and internationally
