ABOUT DASH0

Join Dash0 and help us define the future of observability. We are OpenTelemetry-native, building a delightful, simple, and AI-centric platform that eliminates vendor lock-in and meaningless toil. Shape a product that developers love—all with transparent pricing and cost-control built in.

The Opportunity

Dash0 is experiencing rapid growth and we're looking for a Commercial Account Executive to drive our expansion across the Benelux region (Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg). This is a high-impact role where you'll be responsible for acquiring and closing new logos, building our presence in the Benelux market, and helping define the sales motion at a category-defining startup. You'll be the tip of the spear in our commercial sales efforts in the Benelux — managing the full sales cycle and articulating the value of Dash0 to technical leaders. If you're a driven, technically curious seller who thrives on building something from the ground up, this is your role. Based in Amsterdam (on-site).

What You'll Do

  • Drive the full sales cycle from initial contact to close, with a primary focus on acquiring new logos in the commercial and mid-market segments across the Benelux.
  • Work inbound leads, signups, and intent signals while driving outbound initiatives to create quality pipeline in the Benelux market.
  • Master and articulate the value of the Dash0 platform to technical leaders — VPs of Engineering, SREs, and Platform Engineers.
  • Strategically prospect into target accounts, creatively mapping organizations to identify key decision-makers and champions.
  • Partner closely with Sales Development and Marketing to generate a robust pipeline of qualified opportunities.
  • Conduct compelling product demonstrations and manage technical validation cycles (POCs) that showcase how Dash0 solves critical customer pain points.
  • Utilize modern sales methodologies like MEDDPICC to ensure a repeatable, scalable sales process.
  • Maintain meticulous records and provide accurate forecasting in our CRM.

What You Bring

  • 2+ years of quota-carrying experience in a closing role within B2B technology sales, preferably in infrastructure, DevOps, or observability.
  • A demonstrated history of consistently meeting or exceeding sales targets in a competitive environment.
  • Complete professional fluency in English and Dutch is required.
  • Comfortable and credible in technical conversations — you don't need to be a coder, but you're passionate about learning how technology solves business problems.
  • A natural curiosity and entrepreneurial mindset — you're excited by the challenge of breaking into new accounts and establishing market presence.
  • Outstanding communication and presentation skills.
  • Disciplined in your sales approach — you understand the value of qualification and are committed to accurate pipeline management.

Nice to Have

  • Direct experience selling observability, APM, or related developer tools.
  • Familiarity with the OpenTelemetry and Observability ecosystem.
  • Existing relationships with mid-market technology leaders in the Benelux region.
  • Formal training in Command of the Message and/or MEDDPICC.
  • Experience in a high-growth, venture-backed startup environment.

Why Dash0

This is a unique opportunity to help build a generational company. Dash0 is backed by top-tier investors including Balderton Capital, Accel and Cherry Ventures and led by a founding team with decades of experience in observability. We're in the middle of a massive growth phase after our Series B — and we're just getting started.

If you're looking for a place where a great product meets great people, where momentum is real and your impact is visible from day one — this is it.

What we offer:

  • Competitive salary & meaningful equity participation — you'll own part of what you're building
  • Flexible, remote-first work environment with offices in New York, Amsterdam, and Munich
  • €60/month phone & internet allowance
  • Location-specific benefits
  • Collaborative, fast-moving team culture with a builder mindset
