The market is moving fast. AI is no longer a side conversation-it is a mission-critical priority across the federal ecosystem. Federal System Integrators are helping agencies modernize infrastructure, accelerate AI adoption, and build the secure, high-performance environments needed for the next generation of mission workloads. That creates a unique opportunity for the right enterprise seller.

At DDN, you will be positioned at the intersection of:

AI infrastructure

High Performance Computing (HPC)

Cloud and data center modernization

Mission-critical government transformation

If you want to sell strategic infrastructure that powers some of the nation's most demanding environments while partnering with leading Federal System Integrators, this is that opportunity.

What you will do

Own and grow a portfolio of strategic Federal System Integrator accounts within your territory

Create and convert net-new business opportunities through FSI relationships and partner-led engagements

Lead complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales cycles from prospecting through close

Build trusted relationships with executive sponsors, capture teams, program leaders, and technical decision makers

Partner closely with solution architects and technical teams to develop AI, HPC, storage, and data infrastructure solutions for federal opportunities

Collaborate with channel partners, OEMs, and Federal System Integrators to drive joint pipeline, pursuit strategy, and revenue growth

Maintain accurate pipeline management, forecasting, account planning, and deal strategy across long, strategic sales cycles

What great looks like

You are likely a strong fit if you bring:

7-10 years of enterprise technology sales experience selling infrastructure, storage, compute, networking, cloud, AI, or data center solutions

A proven track record of winning complex enterprise opportunities through Federal System Integrators

Experience managing executive relationships across partner organizations and government stakeholders

Demonstrated success driving net-new business, expanding strategic accounts, and influencing large, multi-year opportunities

Strong communication, executive presentation, negotiation, and forecasting discipline

The ability to navigate complex partner ecosystems and multi-threaded enterprise sales environments

Preferred background

Experience selling AI infrastructure, HPC, storage, cloud, or data center solutions

Experience working directly with leading Federal System Integrators and federal channel partners

Familiarity with federal procurement, capture processes, and partner-led sales motions

7-10 years of enterprise sales experience

Based in or near one of these preferred markets: Washington, DC; Northern Virginia; Maryland; Raleigh; Atlanta; Dallas; Austin; Denver; San Diego; or other major federal technology hubs

Who will love this role

Enterprise sellers who enjoy building strategic partnerships with Federal System Integrators

Hunters who excel at developing partner-led pipeline and winning complex federal opportunities

Sales professionals who can connect technical innovation with mission outcomes

Individuals who thrive in long-cycle, high-value enterprise sales environments

Who should probably not apply

Candidates whose experience is primarily SMB or mid-market sales

Professionals focused primarily on customer success, alliances, or sales engineering rather than quota-carrying enterprise sales

Sellers who prefer highly transactional, short-cycle opportunities

Leaders who are no longer interested in personally owning strategic enterprise opportunities

Compensation Range: $350K - $400K

We pride ourselves on our commitment to delivering tangible and consistent results.
