Every day, our technology securely powers millions of critical data exchanges that keep the automotive industry moving.

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY

This isn't just another Channel Account Executive role.

We're looking for a high-performing partnership and channel sales professional who thrives on building relationships, enabling partner networks, and creating strategic co-selling frameworks that deliver real business value across an ecosystem.

You'll play a critical role in Authenticom's continued growth by identifying, recruiting, enabling, and managing strategic channel partners (including OEMs, tech integrators, reseller partners, and dealership software providers). You'll work directly with partner executives and their sales teams while partnering across Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Customer Success to help scale Authenticom's market presence through indirect revenue channels.

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys building—not simply maintaining—a partner ecosystem. If you're energized by driving exponential revenue growth through partner relationships and want to be part of a company with significant growth ambitions, we'd love to meet you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

BUILD STRATEGIC PARTNER PIPELINE

• Identify, recruit, and onboard high-impact channel partners, resellers, system integrators, and software vendors within target markets.

• Manage deal registration programs and navigate potential channel friction between direct and indirect sales streams.

DEVELOP TRUSTED PARTNER & EXECUTIVE RELATIONSHIPS

• Build lasting relationships with partner C-level executives, practice leads, and front-line sales representatives.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to partners, helping them align Authenticom’s solutions with their core product offerings and client demands.
• Represent Authenticom with professionalism, credibility, and integrity across the partner network.

PARTNER ACROSS THE ORGANIZATION

• Collaborate with Product, Marketing, and Customer Success to develop co-branded collateral, joint marketing initiatives (MDF), and integration pathways.
• Ensure seamless transitions from partner sales motions through technical implementation and long-term customer success.
• Share ecosystem feedback and market intelligence to influence product strategy and partner program evolution.

DRIVE CHANNEL REVENUE GROWTH

• Consistently exceed partner-sourced and partner-influenced revenue goals.
• Drive partner activation, engagement, and recurring deal velocity across target accounts.
• Contribute to the strategy and scaling of Authenticom’s overall channel partner program.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

Within your first year, you'll

• Recruit, activate, and enable a key network of productive channel partners.
• Establish a healthy joint pipeline of qualified co-selling and partner-sourced opportunities.
• Consistently achieve or exceed partner revenue and pipeline objectives.
• Build deep credibility and trust within partner sales organizations.
