## About this role.

AI SummaryFastly is seeking a Senior Partnerships Lead to grow revenue through VAR, MSP, and systems-integrator partners across the East Coast.

Sample interview questionsHow would you prioritize VAR, MSP, and SI partners during your first 90 days?I would segment partners by current revenue, pipeline potential, technical fit, geographic coverage, executive sponsorship, and willingness to invest in enablement. I would then create focused account plans for the highest-potential partners, establish measurable activation milestones, and build a repeatable tiering framework for the wider portfolio.

Describe how you would turn a technically capable partner into a consistent source of qualified pipeline.

I would first identify the partner’s target customer profiles and services motion, then align Fastly use cases to those priorities. I would provide sales plays, technical training, qualification criteria, joint account mapping, and recurring pipeline reviews so the partner can identify, position, and advance opportunities independently.

How would you explain the value of Fastly’s WAF and edge capabilities to both an engineer and a partner business owner?

For engineers, I would focus on protection efficacy, performance, programmability, visibility, and integration with modern application delivery workflows. For a business owner, I would translate those capabilities into recurring services revenue, customer retention, differentiated offerings, margins, and lower operational risk.

Tell us about an operational issue in a partner program that you would address without waiting for formal direction.

I would quantify where friction occurs, such as low deal-registration completion or slow onboarding, interview the affected users, and map the existing workflow. I would propose a lightweight solution with clear ownership and success metrics, pilot it with a small partner group, and use results to drive broader adoption.

How do you maintain accountability for bookings while working through partners you do not directly manage?

I establish shared goals, mutual action plans, defined opportunity stages, and a regular business cadence with both partner and internal stakeholders. I use transparent dashboards and executive alignment to make blockers visible, while ensuring every activity connects to qualified pipeline, conversion, and bookings outcomes.

Senior Partnerships Lead – New York/East Coast | Remote

The Mission

We are building the engine that powers our partners’ growth. You are not here to “manage a channel.” You are here to build a repeatable, scalable, and automated sales machine. You are a Builder-Seller: an expert who understands our technical product well enough to handle introductory, product focused conversations, and a hunter who knows how to drive the sales outcome.

Our ecosystem is primarily composed of VARs, MSPs, and SIs. Your success is defined by their success. You are the architect of that relationship.

The Scoreboard (Lag Measures)

Success is binary and measurable. You own these three outcomes:

*

New Bookings: You are accountable for the revenue generated through your partners.

*

Partner-Sourced Pipeline: You are the bridge. We don’t want “fluff”; we want high-quality, qualified opportunities formally accepted by Fastly.

*

Active/Engaged Partners: We prioritize depth over breadth. You own the health and activity level of your partner portfolio.

The Daily Work (Lead Measures)

You don’t get the outcomes above without the inputs. You are expected to operate with high agency on:

*

Co-Selling: You are in the room. You provide the technical and sales support to help partners close their deals.

*

Enablement: You ensure our partners’ teams are smarter than our competitors’. You deliver the playbooks, training, and technical confidence they need to lead with Fastly.

*

Co-Marketing: You execute “Marketing to, through, and with” your partners. You don’t just “do” marketing; you drive pipeline-generating events and campaigns.

*

Machine Building: You identify the operational “bugs” in our deal registration or onboarding processes and you fix them. You don’t wait for permission; you build the better way.

The Individual We Are Looking For

*

Deeply Technical, Commercially Driven: You can explain WAF, bot detection, and edge infrastructure to an engineer, then switch gears to explain the financial model (rebates, margins, MDF) to a business owner.

*

Builder-at-Heart: You prefer fixing an underlying process once for everyone over executing a manual workaround ten times. You use data to identify where the friction is.

*

High-Agency Owner: You don’t need a task list. You see a gap in partner engagement, you build the fix, and you report the result.

*

Ecosystem Fluent: You have significant experience working with VARs, MSPs, and SIs. You understand the unique economics of their business and how to make Fastly a foundational part of their service offering.

Minimum Qualifications

*

5+ Years Experience: Proven track record as a high-agency individual contributor in cloud, edge, or enterprise software.

*

Ecosystem Expert: 3+ years of direct experience driving revenue within the VAR/MSP/SI ecosystem.

*

Autonomy: A history of driving cross-functional alignment without formal authority.

*

Technical Credibility: Deep understanding of the modern stack: WAF, DDoS, Edge Infrastructure, and serverless compute.

This position will require you to be available during core business hours.
