Silk is seeking a VP, Strategic Business Development to build and drive high-impact commercial partnerships across the AI infrastructure, neo-cloud, hyperscaler, and enterprise data ecosystems.
This is a builder role, not a traditional alliances or account management position. We need someone who can identify opportunities where none exist today, open doors at the executive level, structure complex commercial agreements, and turn strategic relationships into meaningful revenue.
Working directly with the CEO and alongside our VP, Strategic AI & Technology Partnerships, this leader will own the commercial side of strategic partnerships, with particular emphasis on OEM, embedded technology, and platform agreements.
We offer an opportunity for an entrepreneurial, commercially driven leader to build something meaningful, take substantial ownership, and influence Silk's next stage of growth.
Highly desirable: Established commercial relationships across AI infrastructure and neo-cloud ecosystems; experience with multi-year OEM agreements; exposure to corporate development.
What We're Looking For
A commercial hunter and relationship builder with strong sales instincts, strategic judgment, and a bias for execution. Someone who is comfortable taking calculated risks, creating opportunities from scratch, and being measured by the business they generate — not simply the relationships they maintain.
