About The Position

Why should you consider joining Auvik?
You want to work at a company that is building impactful, relevant technology.

It’s more important than ever to be able to remotely monitor and manage network infrastructure, and with Auvik, IT professionals have that essential visibility and control.
You want to work with a leadership team who are transparent and trustworthy. Our senior leaders have a vision for Auvik. They are experienced, knowledgeable, approachable, and consistently working hard to drive success, both for the company and the team of people who make it happen.
You want to work with a product customers love. People rave about what we’ve built. Our customers are smart, aspirational, and highly technical. It pays to get the details right.
You want regular opportunities for learning and growth. With ongoing feedback from leadership, you’ll find that Auvik encourages you to be your very best. Our onboarding process is thorough and informative because we want to make sure you’re prepared to have a great work experience. We also have programs designed to help you take the next steps you want for your career.

We’re looking for a Director of Channel Sales to accelerate and scale Auvik’s partner ecosystem.

You will operate at both a strategic and operational level, partnering cross-functionally while establishing the structure, discipline, and execution model required to scale channel into a consistent and predictable growth engine.
