New AI and ISV Partner Business Development Manager

United States

About Nebius:

Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.

Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.

Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.

 

The role:  New AI and ISV Partner Business Development Manager
 
We’re building Nebius’ next-generation partner ecosystem — and this role is at the center of it.

This is not a traditional partner management role. We are not looking for account managers or program operators. We are looking for a builder — someone who can identify, recruit, and activate high-impact partners that drive real business outcomes.
You will define and scale Nebius’ ISV and AI partner ecosystem from the ground up, creating partnerships that generate net-new pipeline, open new accounts, and scale through repeatable co-sell motions.

What You’ll Do
  • Own and build Nebius’ ISV partner ecosystem from the ground up with your key target accounts — defining strategy, segmentation, onboarding models, and long-term growth frameworks
  • Identify, recruit, and close high-impact AI and ISV partners that can drive net-new customer acquisition and revenue growth
  • Develop and scale repeatable co-sell motions, embedding partners into Nebius’ core sales plays and strategic opportunities
  • Drive partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline, with a strong focus on net-new accounts and expansion
  • Build structured frameworks for joint business planning, pipeline generation, forecasting, and performance management
  • Lead joint go-to-market execution, ensuring partners are actively generating demand and influencing deals
  • Drive partner technical readiness and platform adoption through onboarding, enablement, and joint solution development
  • Act as a key architect of Nebius’ partner program, including co-sell models, incentives, and engagement frameworks
  • Stay deeply connected to the AI ecosystem, identifying emerging players, trends, and high-leverage partnership opportunities
  • Represent Nebius across industry events, ecosystem forums, and strategic partner engagements
  • Serve as the voice of partners internally, working cross-functionally with Sales, Product, Engineering, Marketing, Legal, and GTM teams


What We’re Looking For
  • 10+ years of experience in partnerships, business development, or indirect sales within B2B technology
  • Strong understanding of the AI/ML and cloud ecosystem (infrastructure, models, data pipelines, ISVs, tooling
  • Proven track record of building partner ecosystems from early stages — not just managing existing relationships
  • Demonstrated ability to source, negotiate, and close strategic partnerships that drive measurable business impact
  • Proven success in driving net-new pipeline, opening new accounts, and scaling revenue through repeatable co-sell programs
  • Experience leading co-sell and joint go-to-market motions with sales organizations
  • Solid grasp of cloud platforms and consumption-based business models
  • Technical fluency — able to engage in architecture discussions, use-case validation, and product alignment
  • Builder mindset — comfortable operating in ambiguity and creating structure from scratch
  • Strong executive presence with experience navigating complex, multi-stakeholder environments
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and prioritization skills


Nice to Have
  • Experience working closely with Product and Engineering teams to influence partner integrations and roadmap
  • Background in AI-intensive industries such as Financial Services, Healthcare, Robotics, Retail, or Automotive


What Makes This Role Different
  • You are building the ecosystem — not inheriting one
  • Direct ownership of partner-driven revenue and growth
  • High autonomy and visibility across the business
  • Opportunity to shape how modern AI partnerships are defined and executed at Nebius

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
