Key skills for this role
Tempo is expanding beyond the Atlassian ecosystem, and we're looking for an entrepreneurial Ecosystem Business Development Manager to open the door with the next wave of strategic hyperscaler and platform partners — starting with AWS and Microsoft. This is a net-new activation role: you'll be building these relationships largely from scratch, getting Tempo listed and transactable on each marketplace, and standing up the go-to-market motions that turn a new ecosystem into a real source of pipeline.
You'll work hand-in-hand with the ecosystem owners themselves — AWS, Microsoft, and others as we prioritize them — as well as their services partners, whether or not those partners have an existing relationship with Tempo or Atlassian today. This role sits at the intersection of business development, alliance management, and field execution, and reports to the SVP, Channel & Alliances.

Get Tempo listed and transactable on relevant marketplaces (e.g., AWS Marketplace, Azure Marketplace / AppSource), including private offers and co-sell program enrollment (e.g., AWS ACE, Microsoft Partner Center).
Build GTM motions directly with each ecosystem owner's partner and channel teams, identifying the programs, incentives, and joint-selling mechanics that will drive real pipeline.
Partner Recruitment & Pipeline Development: recruit and activate the ecosystem owner's services partners — regardless of whether they're existing Tempo or Atlassian partners — to sell and deliver Tempo alongside their hyperscaler practice.
Define and track partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline for each new ecosystem, and report progress and results to Tempo's leadership team.
Establish pipeline review cadences and reporting frameworks as each new ecosystem matures, ensuring visibility and accountability.
Field & Cross-Functional Coordination: coordinate with Tempo's AEs, SEs, and Marketing to build joint campaigns, co-sell plays, and enablement content tailored to each new ecosystem.
Represent Tempo at hyperscaler partner events, summits, and marketplace programs to build visibility and relationships in each new ecosystem.
Work with Product and Engineering to prioritize the integrations and technical requirements each marketplace and co-sell program needs.
Use AI day-to-day to research and prioritize new partners and prospects, pull together GTM and enablement content faster, and keep pipeline reporting current across multiple ecosystems at once.
Experience launching or scaling an AWS Marketplace or Microsoft co-sell/AppSource presence for a B2B SaaS company.
Familiarity with the enterprise PPM, SPM, ITSM, or project management software landscape.
An existing network within AWS, Microsoft, or other hyperscaler partner and channel organizations.
Experience working in a high-growth, PE-backed or venture-backed SaaS environment.
Comfort operating as a senior individual contributor — highly autonomous, structured, and able to create leverage without a large team.
Comfortable using AI tools to support research, content, and reporting from day one is a plus — we're glad to help build that fluency further on the job. What matters most is good judgment about when a relationship or a deal needs a human touch AI can't replace.
Build a New Growth Engine: help build one of Tempo's newest strategic growth engines — taking Tempo beyond the Atlassian ecosystem and into the AWS and Microsoft partner worlds from the ground up.
Scale at an Inflection Point: Tempo is expanding from a time-tracking heritage into full Strategic Portfolio Management, with a platform that serves enterprise organizations at Fortune 100 scale.
Autonomy & Visibility: real autonomy and executive visibility — reporting to the SVP, Channel & Alliances, with the mandate to shape how Tempo shows up in each new ecosystem.
Collaboration: a remote-first culture with flexibility, a collaborative global team, and a track record of strong employee development.
