This is a senior individual contributor role with direct business impact and high executive visibility. You will be the primary relationship owner and joint go-to-market driver for our most strategic technology partners - Red Hat Ansible, Nvidia, Cisco, HPE, Arista Networks, and Itential - with one clear mandate: open doors, drive business, and convert these relationships into revenue-producing routes to market for NetBox Labs, up to and including placement on our partners’ global price lists.\nFour of our five priority partners are among the largest technology companies in the world, where executive access is earned, not given. We’re looking for a sophisticated, alliance professional with relentless energy, initiative, and creativity - someone who builds their own momentum, navigates complex global organizations to reach the executives who matter, and is equally comfortable and productive with a senior leader in São Paulo, Bangalore, or Munich: a true citizen of the world. Reporting to the Vice President of Global Partnerships, you will work closely with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing - and you will define the objectives and metrics by which NetBox Labs’ executive leadership tracks the alliance program’s progress.\nWhat You’ll Do\nAlliance Strategy & Executive Access\nOwn the global technology alliance strategy across Red Hat Ansible, Nvidia, Cisco, HPE, Arista Networks, and Itential, ensuring the portfolio aligns with NetBox Labs’ product vision, platform priorities, and go-to-market objectives.\n\nMap the organization, build champions at every level, and convert them into VP- and C-suite sponsorship - these doors do not open by themselves.\n\nRun two motions in parallel: land fast, visible wins with nimble partners like Itential while executing the longer, more complex campaigns required to break through at Cisco, HPE, Arista, and Red Hat.\n\nDefine partner tiering, engagement models, and investment levels across the technology alliance portfolio, and identify emerging partnership opportunities in adjacent ecosystems.\n\nRoutes to Market & Joint Go-to-Market Execution\nDrive NetBox Labs onto partner global price lists and into resale, OEM, and marketplace programs that connect our products to partner sales organizations worldwide.\n\nDesign and launch joint GTM programs - co-sell motions, joint solution packaging, co-marketing campaigns, and field enablement - with success measured in programs launched and partner-influenced pipeline.\n\nBuild multi-year joint business plans and lead complex commercial engagements, including contract negotiations, pricing strategy, and incentive structures.\n\nPartner with Sales team on account planning, opportunity identification, and co-selling with partner field organizations, and partner with Marketing on co-branded content, joint events, and demand campaigns.\n\nProduct & Integration Alignment\nServe as the voice of the partner in internal product planning, ensuring partner integration requirements and joint roadmap opportunities are reflected in NetBox Labs’ priorities.\n\nWork with Engineering and Product to scope and deliver certified integrations and joint solutions that create tangible customer value.\n\nMaintain command of partner platform roadmaps, capabilities, and certification programs, and position NetBox Labs strategically within them.\n\nExecutive Metrics & Alliance Governance\nDefine the objectives, KPIs, and scorecards for the technology alliance program - and build the reporting rhythm that enables NetBox Labs’ executive leadership to track and monitor progress with clarity and confidence.\n\nEstablish governance frameworks for each alliance: executive business reviews, partner lifecycle management, performance tracking, and long-range strategic planning sessions.\n\nReport data-driven results to leadership: programs launched, integration adoption, partner-influenced pipeline, and route-to-market milestones such as price-list placement and partner-status achievements.\n\nCross-Functional & Global Representation\nOperate as the internal champion for technology alliances, building simple, repeatable playbooks that help internal teams and partner stakeholders co-sell and co-market effectively.\n\nRepresent NetBox Labs at partner summits, industry forums, and ecosystem events worldwide, engaging partner executives across regions, cultures, and time zones.\n\nRequired Qualifications\n5-7+ years of experience in technology alliances, business development, or strategic partnerships within enterprise software, SaaS, or infrastructure technology - including direct experience with one or more priority partners (Cisco, Red Hat Ansible, Nvidia, HPE, Arista Networks, or similar network infrastructure and automation vendors).\n\nA track record of earning executive sponsorship inside matrixed global organizations and converting it into commercial outcomes - global price list placement, resale or OEM agreements, marketplace listings, or equivalent routes to market.\n\nSelf-generated energy, initiative, and creativity: you build your own momentum, hunt for opportunity, and never sit back waiting for the business to come to you.\n\nDemonstrated ability to define alliance objectives, metrics, and scorecards, and to communicate progress to executive leadership in clear, data-driven terms.\n\nDeep domain expertise in network automation, network infrastructure, or IT operations technology - credible with both technical and business audiences at partner organizations.\n\nDemonstrated executive presence and global refinement: culturally fluent, polished, and effective when engaging with senior executives throughout the Americas, APAC, and EMEA.\n\nProven ability to align stakeholders across Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing without direct authority.\n\nBachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field; an advanced degree is a plus.\n\nPreferred Experience\nExperience with open source ecosystems or community-driven platform businesses; familiarity with network source of truth, IPAM, DCIM, or automation tooling such as Ansible, Nornir, or Terraform.\n\nBackground in product management, solutions engineering, or technical pre-sales - fluency in integration architecture discussions.\n\nA successful record in large, complex deal negotiations; experience with hyperscaler marketplaces, global price lists, or channel/alliance programs at major technology vendors.\n\nUnderstanding of agentic AI, MCP (Model Context Protocol), or API-first platform architectures and how they are reshaping enterprise infrastructure management.\n\nInternational experience - living, working, or managing alliances across regions; additional languages are a plus.\n\nAbout NetBox Labs:\nNetBox Labs helps companies build and manage complex networks.
