About this role
Datadog is hiring a Commercial Account Executive focused entirely on hunting and closing new business in the DACH region from Amsterdam. You'll own the full sales cycle—prospecting into technical decision-makers like CTOs and engineering leaders, running demos alongside Sales Engineers, and using tools like Sales Navigator to strategically break into accounts. The role demands fluency in German and a proven track record of closing net new logos in a competitive market.
This suits someone who thrives on the phones and in outbound email, with the strategic thinking to map complex accounts and the drive to hit quota consistently. SaaS or cloud sales experience is valuable, as is familiarity with Salesforce. Datadog invests in its sellers through structured training in MEDDIC methodology and product knowledge, paired with mentorship and a clear path to advancement—top performers reach President's Club. You'll work hybrid from Amsterdam with the backing of a company that's profitable, growing, and genuinely built by engineers solving real infrastructure and security problems at scale.
