Senior Sales Specialist – AI Data Platform

Dell's Unstructured Data Solutions (UDS) organization is building a new, global AI Data Platform business. This platform helps large enterprises unlock the majority of their data for AI and advanced analytics, combining Dell's scale and customer reach with a modern, software-driven data stack.

We are hiring Senior Sales Specialists (Senior Account Executives) to lead this growth across key regions worldwide.

• Strategic, high-impact charter: You'll be driving a new AI-driven data platform business for Dell, not just incremental hardware refresh.
• Enterprise reach: Sell into some of the world's largest enterprises across multiple industries and regions.
• Serious backing: Executive-sponsored, multi-year investment in AI Data Platform sales and presales headcount, tools, and POC environments.
• Career upside: Early position in a new, global team with clear room for growth as the business scales.

Skills & mindset:

• Strong domain fluency in: data platforms (data lakes/warehouses, lakehouse architectures), data management (ingestion, ETL/ELT, integration, quality, governance), AI/ML basics and how data platforms support AI initiatives.
• Consultative, value-based seller who can link platform capabilities to clear business outcomes (revenue growth, risk reduction, efficiency), build ROI/TCO and business cases for C-level stakeholders.
• Comfortable engaging both technical and business audiences, switching fluently between architectural discussions and business impact narratives.
