  • Listen to and organize customer challenges and technical requirements, and lead proposal activities.

  • Maintain close coordination with US Headquarters and domestic departments to advance business negotiations.

  • Ensure alignment across the team by sharing customer status and plans with other members.

  • Perform daily tasks using Microsoft Office applications and other web-based tools.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in IT infrastructure (office network, data center, security) or SP infrastructure business.

  • 5+ years of experience in business development or pre-sales activities.

  • 3+ years of experience in SaaS or software sales.

  • Experience driving business in large, cross-functional organizations as a high-touch account manager.

  • Language: Native-level Japanese; Business-level English (communication and negotiation).

  • Ability to execute sales methodologies based on strategic thinking and strong negotiation skills.

  • Team-oriented: Ability to share information, seek advice from others, and support/mentor team members.

  • Respect for business partners, both internal and external.

  • High coachability: A proactive attitude toward accepting advice/feedback and driving self-growth.

  • GRIT: Ability to take action to persevere through challenging situations.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Expertise in data center infrastructure (including networking, computing, AI accelerators) or public cloud.

  • Pre-sales experience for service providers or IT service companies.

  • Proven track record of expanding business using cutting-edge technology.

  • Experience using various business support tools and applications.
