    About this role

    Joining Collibra’s AI Sales team

    Collibra’s AI Sales team is at the forefront of how enterprises adopt and scale AI, selling a suite of AI products including AI Command Center, Collibra Units, and Deasy Labs, Collibra’s unstructured data platform for AI, directly to the builders and technical leaders driving production AI systems.

    This role exists because the market is moving fast and we need elite hunters who can open doors, build trust with technical buyers and close net-new logos in a category that’s still being defined. Your work will directly shape how Deasy Labs grows and how Collibra establishes itself as the leader in enterprise AI.

    About Deasy Labs

    Deasy Labs, part of Collibra, develops technology that automatically discovers, enriches, and maintains the semantic context inside unstructured data. Enterprise knowledge often lives in documents, PDFs, reports, and transcripts that traditional data systems cannot easily organize or govern.

    The Deasy platform analyzes that content and generates structured metadata, taxonomies, and relationships that allow AI systems to retrieve the right information with accuracy and control.
