From Sonatype's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Sonatype is the software supply chain management platform that empowers enterprises to build, govern, and secure software at AI speed. Founded on the legacy of Maven Central and Nexus Repository, Sonatype sits at the epicenter of modern software development, protecting the global digital supply chain for thousands of enterprise organizations and over 15 million developers worldwide.
As software development accelerates through AI coding agents and automated workflows, Sonatype provides the critical governance, real-time perimeter protection, and deep component intelligence required to innovate without sacrificing trust, security, or control.
The Senior Manager, Account Executives is a pivotal revenue leadership role designed to build, scale, and operationalize Sonatype’s high-velocity commercial engine. Operating at the intersection of hyper-growth commercial execution and AI-enabled sales productivity, this leader will drive the strategy and daily execution for a cohort of Velocity Account Executives managing high-volume, sub-30-day transactional sales cycles.
This is a pivotal opportunity to build the next generation of Sonatype’s commercial sales engine. As we scale toward $500M, we’re looking for a hands-on sales leader who can turn a high-velocity team into both a predictable revenue engine and a genuine talent factory for our wider GTM organisation.
You’ll lead from the front—coaching deals, developing sellers, creating outbound discipline and using AI to fundamentally improve how the team works. If you love building teams, developing talent and turning potential into performance, this is the kind of leadership role where you can leave a real mark.
Role Outcomes:: Commercial Velocity & Quota Attainment:
Achieve and exceed regional revenue targets by leading a team of AEs each managing an $800k–$1.1M ARR quota, closing 32–44 transactions annually ($10k–$30k average ARR) with sub-30-day deal velocity.
Design and implement the GTM operating model, rep onboarding playbooks, and territory guardrails to get new cohort hires productive within 60 days before scaling headcount.
Embed Level 2–3 AI sales workflows across the team (AI prospecting research, message personalization, Gong call summarization, Salesforce auto-logging) to maximize activity velocity without administrative burnout.
Recruit, coach, and retain top early-career closing talent, establishing the Velocity AE track as Sonatype's premier internal GTM talent launchpad.
