Description

The Red Hat Sales team is looking for a Cloud Sales Executive to join us in Singapore/Malaysia. In this role, you will be the primary driver of Red Hat's sales-led cloud business within this assigned territory. You will be responsible for developing and executing a comprehensive cloud go-to-market strategy that accelerates customer adoption and consumption of Red Hat's portfolio through hyperscaler marketplaces and our managed cloud service offerings. As a Cloud Sales Executive, you will act as the subject matter expert (SME) on cloud business models and co-sell motions. Your success will depend on building strategic relationships with our hyperscaler partners (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud) and the broader channel ecosystem. You will collaborate closely with Red Hat's direct sales teams to identify cloud opportunities, structure complex deals, and provide expert guidance throughout the sales cycle to drive significant revenue growth. What you will do: Strategic Deal Alignment and Sales Execution (approx. 50% of time): Act as the primary sales driver and SME on customer engagements for all Red Hat cloud offerings, including Red Hat’s managed cloud services (e.g., Red Hat OpenShift on AWS, Azure Red Hat OpenShift) and marketplace offerings. Proactively identify and qualify opportunities for cloud adoption, focusing on key sales plays like application modernization, data center migration, and VMware displacement. Own the cloud sales cycle within the account team, from initial discovery and value proposition to deal structuring, negotiation, and closure. Lead the creation and delivery of compelling commercial proposals, including Marketplace Private Offers, to meet customer needs and secure long-term commitments. Work directly with C-level executives, procurement, and FinOps teams to articulate the value of Red Hat's cloud solutions and consumption models. Partner Strategy and Co-Sell Execution (approx. 25% of time): Develop and maintain a robust co-sell pipeline by building deep, trust-based relationships with hyperscaler account teams in your territory. Lead joint account planning sessions with Red Hat and hyperscaler sales teams to align strategies, identify joint targets, and drive tri-party (Red Hat, Partner, Customer) meetings. Serve as the internal and external evangelist for Red Hat’s cloud value proposition, enabling Red Hat and partner sales teams in collaboration with Partner Account Managers (PAMs) on how to position and win together. Understand the motivators, compensation models, and priorities of partner sales teams to create mutually beneficial co-sell engagements. Collaborate with the broader partner ecosystem, including regional cloud providers, system integrators (SIs), and resellers, to scale the business across your territory. Business Operations and Enablement (approx. 25% of time): Act as the territory’s escalation point for removing friction in the cloud sales process, including private offer creation, reporting, and booking. Maintain an accurate forecast for your cloud business and provide visibility into pipeline development and deal progression. Analyze market trends and customer consumption data (e.g., traditional CCSP) to identify opportunities for conversion to sales-led, committed-spend contracts. Identify and share best practices across the sales organization to improve cloud sales effectiveness and guide field teams to relevant training and resources. What you will bring: 5+ years of experience in a solutions sales, business development, or partner management role within the enterprise software or cloud industry. Demonstrated experience selling complex IT solutions, preferably in areas of application platforms, automation, middleware, or cloud infrastructure. Deep understanding of the public cloud ecosystem, including the core services, sales motions, and marketplace transaction mechanisms of major hyperscalers (AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud). Proven ability to work collaboratively in a matrixed organization, building consensus and driving results with cross-functional teams (e.g., Direct Sales, Solution Architects, Alliances, Operations). Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical and commercial concepts to a wide range of audiences, from technical practitioners to senior executives. Experience in consultative selling, with a track record of meeting and exceeding sales targets. Self-motivated and able to thrive in an autonomous environment, managing multiple priorities effectively. Fluency in English and the language of the assigned region/country is required. #EG-LI1 About Red Hat Red Hat is the world’s leading provider of enterprise open source software solutions, using a community-powered approach to deliver high-performing Linux, cloud, container, and Kubernetes technologies.
