Drive end-to-end sales cycles including early architecture influence, technical alignment, commercial negotiation, and long-term supply agreements

Secure design wins for Xsight Labs silicon and platforms within hyperscale data center and AI infrastructure roadmaps

Build trusted relationships with VP and C-level leaders, principal architects, networking teams, and sourcing organizations

Collaborate closely with product management, engineering, and marketing to align customer requirements with roadmap priorities

Translate complex technical value propositions into clear business outcomes

Strong executive presence with the ability to engage technical and business audiences equally

Leader that can work across diverse, and global teams, to deliver upon strategic goals with limited direction in a fast-moving, high-growth startup environment

Willingness to travel globally, as needed to support customer engagements

What Success Looks Like:

Secured design wins and roadmap inclusion at multiple hyperscale accounts

Established Xsight Labs as a strategic, long-term partner rather than a point vendor
