About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Own a named-account and vertical-based territory of hyperscale, edge scaler, large enterprise, AI / HPC, and wholesale prospects; develop a written account plan and multi-year pursuit strategy for each.
  • Identify, qualify, and close large-format colocation opportunities: multi-hundred-kilowatt to multi-megawatt, single- and multi-site, powered-shell, and build-to-suit engagements.
  • Build executive-level relationships across IT, cloud, real estate, procurement, sustainability, and the C-suite within each target account.
  • Maintain an active named-account pipeline of at least 3–4x annual quota with rigorous stage discipline and forecast accuracy in Salesforce.
  • Lead multi-month to multi-year sales cycles involving RFI / RFP / RFQ, capacity reservations, and phased delivery commitments.
  • Partner with Sales Engineers & Solutions Architects, critical facilities engineering, product, finance, and legal to shape economics, commercial terms, and contract structure (MSAs, service orders, LOIs, capacity agreements).

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 8+ years of quota-carrying enterprise sales experience, with at least 5 years selling wholesale colocation, hyperscale data center capacity, or large-format critical infrastructure.
  • A track record of closing multi-megawatt and / or multi-site colocation transactions, or comparable large-format infrastructure deals.
  • Deep working knowledge of the wholesale ecosystem: hyperscaler procurement patterns, data center REITs, brokers, EPCs, and the commercial constructs used in large capacity deals.
  • Fluency in the commercial and technical vocabulary of critical facilities: power (kW, MW, PUE), cooling, resiliency (N, N+1, 2N), interconnection, and delivery timelines.
  • Executive-level presence with C-suite, real estate, and infrastructure buyers; ability to defend commercial and technical positions under sophisticated procurement pressure.
  • Rigorous use of Salesforce and a modern sales methodology (MEDDPICC or equivalent) for named-account planning, pipeline management, and forecast accuracy.
