At Databricks, we empower organizations to make better decisions with data and AI. As an Emerging Account Executive, you'll partner with some of Japan's most innovative and fast-growing companies - helping them unlock the full potential of their data to scale faster and smarter. You will own an Emerging territory, a portfolio of high‑potential, under‑penetrated accounts (often SMBs and Mid-market) that are not yet covered by a dedicated account owner.
You are a strategic, growth-minded sales professional who thrives in dynamic environments. You understand how to engage with senior stakeholders, navigate complex organizations, and drive meaningful outcomes. You're comfortable managing both short-term opportunities and multi-threaded, strategic initiatives that expand our footprint and customer impact.
You will report to Sr Manager, Sales in Japan.
The impact you will have:
- Develop and execute a territory plan targeting Japan’s emerging market segment - growth-stage organizations with significant data and AI ambitions.
- Effectively manage a mix of rapid, transactional deals and complex, strategic engagements.
- Consistently meet and exceed activity, pipeline, and revenue goals through active prospecting and account development.
- Maintain high standards of operational excellence in Salesforce and Clari, including accurate forecasting, opportunity tracking (MEDDPICC), and detailed account notes.
- Lead with a customer-first mindset and focus on delivering measurable business value.
What we look for:
- 3+ years of closing experience in SaaS, Cloud, Big Data or AI sales.
- Proven success exceeding sales KPIs and quotas.
- Demonstrated ability to acquire new customers and expand existing relationships.
- (Nice to have) Experience collaborating with partners or engaging in co-selling or partner-led motions within the technology ecosystem.
- Ability to quickly learn new technical concepts and confidently communicate value propositions.
- Fluency in Japanese and business-level English is required.
