We want everyone to work better – but we also want to be a tech company with a heart. Join us as we continuously innovate our award-winning products, create new solutions, and help the world work smarter, not harder.
About the role:
Tempo is expanding beyond the Atlassian ecosystem, and we're looking for an entrepreneurial Ecosystem Business Development Manager to open the door with the next wave of strategic hyperscaler and platform partners — starting with AWS and Microsoft. This is a net-new activation role: you'll be building these relationships largely from scratch, getting Tempo listed and transactable on each marketplace, and standing up the go-to-market motions that turn a new ecosystem into a real source of pipeline.
You'll work hand-in-hand with the ecosystem owners themselves — AWS, Microsoft, and others as we prioritize them — as well as their services partners, whether or not those partners have an existing relationship with Tempo or Atlassian today. This role sits at the intersection of business development, alliance management, and field execution, and reports to the SVP, Channel & Alliances.
What you'll do:
- Ecosystem Activation & Marketplace GTM: own the end-to-end activation of new hyperscaler and platform ecosystems, starting with AWS and Microsoft — building the relationship, the paperwork, and the go-to-market plan from the ground up.
- Get Tempo listed and transactable on relevant marketplaces (e.g., AWS Marketplace, Azure Marketplace / AppSource), including private offers and co-sell program enrollment (e.g., AWS ACE, Microsoft Partner Center).
- Build GTM motions directly with each ecosystem owner's partner and channel teams, identifying the programs, incentives, and joint-selling mechanics that will drive real pipeline.
- Partner Recruitment & Pipeline Development: recruit and activate the ecosystem owner's services partners — regardless of whether they're existing Tempo or Atlassian partners — to sell and deliver Tempo alongside their hyperscaler practice.
- Define and track partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline for each new ecosystem, and report progress and results to Tempo's leadership team.
- Establish pipeline review cadences and reporting frameworks as each new ecosystem matures, ensuring visibility and accountability.
- Field & Cross-Functional Coordination: coordinate with Tempo's AEs, SEs, and Marketing to build joint campaigns, co-sell plays, and enablement content tailored to each new ecosystem.
- Represent Tempo at hyperscaler partner events, summits, and marketplace programs to build visibility and relationships in each new ecosystem.
- Work with Product and Engineering to prioritize the integrations and technical requirements each marketplace and co-sell program needs.
- Use AI day-to-day to research and prioritize new partners and prospects, pull together GTM and enablement content faster, and keep pipeline reporting current across multiple ecosystems at once.
Who you are:
Must-have:
- 7+ years of experience in business development, strategic alliances, or partner management within B2B SaaS.
- Direct, hands-on experience standing up or running a hyperscaler relationship — AWS Marketplace/ACE, Microsoft Partner Center/AppSource, or a comp
