Role
Who you are
- The ideal candidate has a proven track record of navigating, negotiating, and closing complex Reseller and OEM agreements with major financial technology ecosystems—specifically targeting banking infrastructure giants like Fiserv and Jack Henry
- 7+ years of professional work experience, with 3+ years specifically focused on sourcing, negotiating, and closing Reseller and OEM partnerships in the technology or financial services sector
- Proven track record of hitting and exceeding partner sales quotas
- Demonstrated experience managing deep commercial relationships or closing deals with major core banking platforms (e.g., Fiserv, Jack Henry, FIS) is preferred
- Expertise in structuring complex technical and commercial agreements
- Experience in high-growth, venture-backed, or pre-IPO technology companies is strongly preferred
- Willingness to travel up to 25% of the time for partner meetings and industry events
- Discovery-first mindset: you ask before you pitch, and you can translate a prospect's business problem into a product & GTM structure recommendation
- Technical fluency: comfortable in conversations that involve API integration, compliance considerations and technical architecture, even when you're not the technical expert in the room
- Data-driven: you own your pipeline numbers, understand what they mean, and use them to prioritize your time
- Commercial grit: reseller and OEM partnerships with massive institutions are complex and lengthy; you stay persistent, creative, and strategically aligned without losing momentum
- High Collaboration: you naturally bridge gaps across engineering, legal, product, and sales teams to bring highly multi-faceted deals across the finish line
- Don’t meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At Prove we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles
