Director of Customer Success

Tractian
Chicago, IL

Customer at TRACTIAN

The Sales team is the driving factor behind revenue at Tractian. We focus on generating new opportunities, acquiring new customers, and building even stronger relationships with our current accounts. Our Enterprise customers are comprised of Fortune 500 companies, such as Hyundai, Bosch, Kraft-Heinz, John Deere, PepsiCo, and others. Tractian's Net Revenue Retention (NRR) is as big as Silicon Valley startups, such as Snowflake (158%) and Twilio (155%), which highlights the stickiness of our products. We make sure that top performers are recognized and over-beating quota.
