  • Partner internally to develop training and educational programs to raise customer awareness of serverless using edge cloud infrastructure
  • Collaborate with product management to aggregate and prioritize feature development for clients.
  • Collaborate with Product Marketing to craft and refine product-line messaging.
  • Train Fastly’s sales and support organisations on the value of serverless solutions generally and Fastly’s differentiation in market

What We're Looking For

  • Previous experience as a developer using a scripting language (Preferably Rust, JavaScript, or Go)
  • Hands on experience working with serverless or microservices architectures in a vendor or client context
  • Validated sales skills working with very technical and highly detail oriented customers in large enterprises
  • 5+ years operating in pre-sales SaaS or PaaS engagements with enterprise organizations; experience handling enterprise sales engagements with multi-tiered and matrixed organisations
  • Expert knowledge of internet protocols and website optimisation and acceleration

  • Demonstrable ability to think strategically on your feet while being persuasive and credible
  • Strong organisational, project management, and leadership skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Outstanding listening skills
  • Proven collaboration skills within cross-functional organisations
  • Deep knowledge of enterprise application development and deployment technology
  • Willing and able to travel up to 70% of time to support sellers across the UK, Spain, Germany and Sweden (when it is safe to do so!)

Why Fastly?

  • We have a huge impact. Fastly is a small company with a big reach. Not only do our customers have a tremendous user base, but we also support a growing number of open source projects and initiatives. Outside of code, employees are encouraged to share causes close to their heart with others so we can help lend a supportive hand.

  • We love distributed teams. Fastly’s home-base is in San Francisco, but we have multiple offices and employees sprinkled around the globe. In fact, 50% of our employees work outside of SF! An international remote culture is in our DNA.

  • We care about you. Fastly works hard to create a positive environment for our employees, and we think your life outside of work is important too. We support our teams with great benefits like up to 20 weeks of paid parental leave, options for free medical/dental/vision plans, and an open vacation program that enables our folks to take the time they need to recharge (some benefits may vary by location).

  • We value diversity. Growing and maintaining our inclusive and diverse team matters to us. We are committed to being a company where our employees feel comfortable bringing their authentic selves to work and have the ability to be successful -- every day.

  • We are passionate. Fastly is chock full of passionate people and we’re not ‘one size fits all’. Fastly employs authors, pilots, skiers, parents (of humans and animals), makeup geeks, coffee connoisseurs, and more. We love employees for who they are and what they are passionate about.

We’re always looking for humble, sharp, and creative folks to join the Fastly team. If you think you might be a fit, please apply!
