We are seeking a deeply technical and strategic leader to spearhead our engagement with the world's most innovative Software and Platform companies. This executive role is focused on establishing Google Cloud as the premier foundation for ISVs, SaaS providers, gaming developers, and digital-native businesses to build, scale, and innovate their own products.

The Work

You will be responsible for driving the adoption of Google Cloud's most advanced Data, AI, and agentic technologies to help these technology companies accelerate their development cycles, create intelligent user experiences, and redefine their markets.

Key Responsibilities

• Strategic Industry Leadership: You will define and execute the comprehensive go-to-market strategy for Google Cloud within the independent software vendor (ISV) and digital-native platform segment. This involves acting as the senior technical voice for this unique customer base, translating the needs of software developers and platform architects into actionable strategies for Google's own product and engineering teams. Your ultimate goal is to ensure Google Cloud is the most innovative and developer-friendly platform for building and scaling software businesses.

You will guide them on architecting highly scalable, resilient, and intelligent applications on Google Cloud. This includes providing expert guidance on cloud-native design patterns, microservices, DevOps, data mesh architectures, and leveraging Google's global infrastructure to achieve elite performance and efficiency for their own products.

This involves championing the use of AI to radically accelerate the software development lifecycle (SDLC), from AI-assisted coding to automated testing and deployment. You will also drive the integration of generative AI and agentic frameworks into our customers' platforms, enabling them to create novel, intelligent user experiences, build powerful data analytics features, and unlock new monetization models.

• Developer Ecosystem and Advocacy: Your success hinges on winning the hearts and minds of developers. You will lead Google Cloud's strategy for engaging with the software and platform developer community, including fostering relationships with open-source projects, venture capital firms, and startup accelerators. You will be a credible and authentic advocate for developers, ensuring they have the tools, resources, and support needed to build successfully on Google Cloud.

• Thought Leadership and Market Influence: As a prominent technical voice for Google Cloud, you will establish and maintain a high-profile presence within the software engineering and platform development community. This includes speaking at top-tier developer and architectural conferences, publishing technical articles and white papers, and engaging with key influencers and media.
