Freshworks uncomplicates work with simple, powerful, and intuitive solutions trusted by 72,000+ organizations, including Bridgestone, Sony Music, and S&P Global, to create exceptional customer (CX) and employee (EX) experiences. With more than 4,500 colleagues worldwide, we're showing that enterprise software can be easy to use, quick to deliver value, and built for people. 

FireHydrant, a Freshworks company, is focused on a different but equally critical mission: helping modern engineering teams manage incidents, reduce downtime, and operate with confidence. FireHydrant is a leading incident management and site reliability platform trusted by fast-growing, highly technical organizations across cloud infrastructure, developer tooling, fintech, gaming, and e-commerce 

At Freshworks and FireHydrant, you'll be part of teams that value curiosity, collaboration, and impact—and you'll help customers solve problems that truly matter.

In this role, you'll own the full sales cycle for mid-market and commercial accounts, partnering with fast-growing companies to help them improve incident response, operational resilience, and reliability. You'll take a consultative, value-driven approach—guiding customers through complex buying journeys and helping them connect their reliability challenges with FireHydrant's platform.

• Share feedback from the field to help shape FireHydrants go-to-market strategy and product evolution 

Represent FireHydrant Thoughtfully
