In this role, you'll be the program owner for Datadog's solution provider (reseller) partner program — setting program strategy, structure, tiering, and requirements, and driving the partner lifecycle from recruitment and onboarding through enablement and ongoing performance management. You'll also serve as the subject matter expert for partner pricing, helping shape how Datadog structures, operationalizes, and scales partner pricing across its ecosystem, and acting as the primary liaison between Channels & Alliances and Deal Desk on partner-specific pricing requirements and commercial frameworks. You'll support both internal teams and external partners by providing guidance on program benefits, pricing models, deal structures, incentives, and commercial programs. You'll own enablement for the solution provider program more broadly, including pricing enablement, developing training content and onboarding programs that help Partner Sales Managers and partners confidently navigate the program and Datadog's evolving pricing landscape. This is a highly cross-functional role that requires deep experience building and running reseller-focused partner programs, along with experience in partner commercial models and SaaS pricing, and the ability to translate program and pricing strategy into scalable processes, tools, and training.
