Trusted by more than 29,000 companies, including Workday, Pinterest, LG, and Rakuten Viber, Mixpanel’s AI-first digital analytics help teams accelerate adoption, improve retention, and ship with confidence. Powering this is an industry-leading platform that combines product and web analytics, session replay, experimentation, feature flags, and metric trees. Mixpanel delivers insights that customers trust.
About The Team
The Strategic Alliances team is small, fast, and outcome-oriented - not a program or account mapping factory. We spearhead the identification, investigation, development and execution of initiatives & partnerships aimed at moving the needle for some of Mixpanel’s most strategic levers. As Mixpanel continues its evolution, this team is at the forefront of defining our new ecosystem realities and opportunities, particularly within the emerging spaces in, and enabled by, AI. LLM’s, Vibecoders and MCP Servers and their adjacencies are our workspace.
About The Role
This is the number two on the Alliances team. You'll own a portfolio of partner opportunities and sourcing of structural deals — embedded distribution, revenue share, API embedding, committed co-sell — with the companies defining how AI-native software gets built and distributed (think Snowflake, Stripe, Anthropic, Google, Glean and Replit) and target new relationships, owning first conversation through execution. You’ll also provide due diligence support for in-flight opportunities. You need to be comfortable with ambiguity and have the ability to translate company priorities into a set of actionable and achievable partnerships. You will work closely with stakeholders and senior leadership across Product & Engineering, Marketing, Channel and Sales teams to ensure tight alignment and smooth execution - to be successful, you will need a track record of this collaboration with quantifiable outcomes.
Responsibilities
- End-to-end ownership of a set of strategic partnerships with LLMs, Hyperscalers, AI developer tools, data platforms and niche providers who can fill product gaps.
- Market analysis and due diligence, with emphasis on quantitative support for new partnerships and market entries.
- Deal structuring and negotiation: term sheets, rev share, data licensing, API embedding, pipeline and revenue commitments.
- Expand and elevate Mixpanel exposure within our newest strategic partners; driving alignment up to, and including, C-level relationships.
- Work closely with Channel & Enablement teams seamless handoffs, as needed, around GTM execution: co-sell motions, joint pipeline, co-marketing in service of revenue or branding.
- Inbound partner management — screen fast, route correctly, don't let it become a distraction.
- Own the room with cross-functional stakeholders including Product, Engineering, Sales, and Legal to close and activate partnerships.
- Design and execute unique playbooks with partners with aligned, committed outcomes; not a rinse and repeat of collateral creation, account mapping and team socialization.
- Collaborate with marketing & demand gen teams to launch partnerships and campaigns designed to spread awareness and drive pipeline.
- Define and evangelize the value proposition with partners; what are we doing together, why and who should care; Product Marketing is there for support, but this is yours to own.
We’re Looking for Someone with
- 8+ years of professional experience with minimum of 5+ in strategic technology partnerships, alliances, or corp dev; ideally at a hyperscaler, high-growth SaaS, or with a consulting/banking background before going operator.
- Track record of having closed deals with real structure: you've negotiated terms, not just managed relationships.
- Fluency in the modern data stack (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Supabase) and the AI developer ecosystem (LLM platforms, agentics frameworks, vibe-coding tools, MCP Servers).
- Technically fluent enough to hold a credible conversation with a CPO or platform team; commercial enough to close; your job is not to set meetings.
- Innate sense of urgency and prioritization; fast qualification, clear POV, no committee thinking.
- Exceptional communication skills; creates executive-level deliverables that are outcome-first, data-backed, decision-ready.
- Hands-on experience with AI; you’ve moved beyond chat interfaces and built something, shipped something, or broken something trying. You understand what developers actually experience when they evaluate a platform, and you can hold a credible technical conversation because of it, not despite your role.
- Ability to operate and create structure within ambiguity; our scope of impact is broad and strategic - you need to be able to translate company goals into executable initiatives and be able to clearly articulate that connection; you won’t have a quota and systems to execute against.
- Exceptional cross-functional leadership and the ability to command the room and drive alignment across Product, Engineering, Sales/GTM, Legal, and Channel organizations.
- Strong executive presence, negotiation capability, and comfort operating in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
Bonus Points For
- MBA or other advanced business degree, JD or engineering degree.
- Previous experience in management or strategy consulting.
- Experience partnering with Snowflake, Databricks or GCP, Anthropic and others across the AI space.
- Hands-on experience with Mixpanel; able to connect the dots on partner opportunities.
- Sold or partnered in a product-led growth context.
- Built or shipped an integration — you know what it actually takes.

Tips for Your Partner Development Manager Job Search
Quantify your partner-sourced revenue
Hiring managers for this role want to see numbers tied to partner-influenced pipeline, not just relationship-building activities. Pull co-sell revenue, partner-sourced deal counts, or channel attach rates from your past roles and lead your resume bullets with those figures.
Tailor applications to partner motion type
Resellers, technology alliances, and systems integrators each require a different skill set. Read each job posting for clues about which partner model the company runs, then mirror that language in your resume and cover letter so your experience maps directly to their motion.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists partner development manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Highlight cross-functional deal experience
Partner roles sit at the intersection of sales, product, and marketing. On your resume, call out specific examples where you aligned internal teams to close a joint deal or launch a co-marketing program, because interviewers will probe exactly those scenarios.
Prep a partner business review example
Many interview processes for this role include a business review presentation or a role-play with a fictional partner. Prepare a real example of a quarterly business review you ran, the metrics you tracked, and how you moved a stagnant partner to active selling status.
Negotiate on variable compensation structure
Partner development manager offers often include a partner-influenced or sourced bonus on top of base pay. Before accepting, clarify how partner attribution is tracked and whether the variable component is tied to outcomes you directly control versus shared team targets.
Partner Development Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most partner development managers?
The companies hiring the most partner development managers right now include Klaviyo, Intuit, and TikTok, with the largest share of openings in California, New York, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Demand is concentrated in technology and cloud services companies expanding their indirect sales and ecosystem programs.
How many partner development manager jobs are remote?
About 43% of partner development manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting the relationship-driven nature of the role and broad geographic partner coverage requirements. Alliance management and technology partnership roles tend to offer more remote flexibility than channel field roles that require regional travel to reseller offices.
How do you become a partner development manager?
Start by building experience in an adjacent sales or business development role, such as account management, channel sales, or inside sales, where you interact with external partners or resellers. Develop familiarity with joint go-to-market frameworks and partner enablement. Then move into a junior partner manager or partner success role before stepping up to a partner development manager position with full ownership of a partner segment.
Can you get a partner development manager job with limited experience?
Yes, if you reframe transferable experience strategically. Candidates moving from account executive, solutions consultant, or customer success roles often break in by demonstrating that they have managed external stakeholders, built joint account plans, or run enablement sessions for a third party. Targeting smaller companies or high-growth startups building out their partner programs from scratch also increases your chances, because those employers weigh potential and initiative more heavily than years in a titled partner role.
What does the partner development manager interview process look like?
The process typically runs through a recruiter screen, a hiring manager conversation focused on your partner methodology and past results, and then one or two rounds with cross-functional stakeholders from sales or product. Many employers add a take-home or live presentation where you build a mock partner business plan or quarterly review, so expect to demonstrate structure and commercial reasoning, not just relationship skills.
Where can I find and apply to partner development manager jobs?
You can find and apply to partner development manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Find roles that match your experience and background, then apply directly to each listing from the page.
