About the Role

Tailscale is looking for a Director, APAC Go-to-Market to build and lead our GTM business in Asia Pacific, starting from Singapore.

APAC represents an important growth opportunity for Tailscale. We have strong conviction in the region and are looking for a leader who can turn that opportunity into a meaningful, durable business: building pipeline and revenue, developing a strong partner ecosystem, winning strategic customers, and building the team we need to scale.

We are looking for someone who has built a region before and wants to do it again from scratch. You will set the APAC go-to-market strategy, determine where and how we invest, recruit and lead our initial regional team, and be directly accountable for commercial results. You will have significant autonomy to determine what Tailscale needs to win in the region.

You will also be a hands-on commercial leader. You’ll spend time with customers and partners, help shape and close our most important opportunities, and develop a deep understanding of how technology companies need to go to market differently across APAC. You’ll bring those insights back to our global Sales, Marketing, Product, and Engineering teams and help Tailscale become a truly global company.

In this role, you will be able to hire the team you need to succeed. We suspect that will include Sales Development, Account Executives, Solutions Engineering, Customer Engineering, and Partner Marketing, but ultimately we will be open to your recommendation based on expertise. These hires will report directly to you with dotted lines to functional departments in North America and EMEA. You’ll lead that team as a region, while working closely with their functional counterparts elsewhere at Tailscale. This role will report to Tailscale’s President, Kevin Kotecki.

Key Responsibilities

Own the APAC number. You will be accountable for regional pipeline creation and revenue growth. Establish clear targets, build the plan to reach them, maintain strong forecasting and pipeline discipline, and continuously adjust our approach based on what the data and the market tell us.
Build and execute Tailscale’s APAC go-to-market strategy. Determine which markets, customer segments, use cases, and routes to market offer the greatest opportunity for Tailscale. Translate global company strategy into a focused regional plan while recognizing that what works in North America or Europe will not always work in APAC.
Build a high-performing regional GTM organization. Recruit, lead, and develop exceptional sellers and other customer-facing talent in the region. Build a team that operates as one APAC organization while remaining tightly connected to its global functional counterparts. Create the culture, operating rhythms, and accountability required for a small regional team to move quickly and perform at a high level.
Lead from the front with customers. Personally engage in Tailscale’s most important opportunities in the region. Build relationships with senior technical and business leaders, help the team navigate complex enterprise sales cycles, and serve as executive sponsor for strategic customers. Stay close enough to the market to know why we are winning, why we are losing, and what needs to change.
Build Tailscale’s presence in the region. Establish Tailscale as a credible and increasingly visible technology company in APAC. Represent Tailscale with customers, partners, at industry events, and within the broader technology ecosystem. Develop the relationships and market intelligence that allow us to identify opportunities earlier than we otherwise would.
Be the voice of APAC inside Tailscale. Build a strong point of view on regional customers, competitors, partners, buying behavior, and market dynamics. Bring that perspective into company decisions about product, packaging, marketing, partnerships, and future investments.
Build the region for the long term. We expect the shape of our APAC organization to evolve considerably. Identify what capabilities and investments we need next, make thoughtful resource tradeoffs, and build systems that can scale beyond the first phase of the Singapore office.

What We Are Looking For

Significant experience in enterprise technology go-to-market, with meaningful experience leading Sales or a broader GTM organization across APAC.
You have done this before . You have helped build or materially scale an APAC business rather than only operating within an already mature regional organization.
A proven track record of owning and exceeding meaningful pipeline and revenue targets in a B2B technology business.
Deep familiarity with the APAC technology market and experience operating successfully across multiple countries and cultures, with particularly strong knowledge of Singapore and Southeast Asia.
Established relationships within the regional channel and partner ecosystem, along with a track record of turning those relationships into measurable commercial outcomes.
A strong network of exceptional GTM talent in the region. You know what great sellers and SEs look like and have demonstrated that you can attract them to work with you.
Experience leading complex enterprise opportunities personally. You are comfortable moving from regional strategy and forecasting into a customer meeting or deal review and materially improving the outcome.
Experience selling highly technical products to sophisticated buyers. Experience with infrastructure, networking, security, developer tools, cloud, or adjacent enterprise technology is particularly relevant.
Strong commercial judgment and analytical ability. You understand pipeline mathematics, forecasting, unit economics, market prioritization, and where to invest limited resources to produce the greatest return.
Strong cross-functional leadership skills. You can lead a regional team while partnering effectively with global Sales, Marketing, Product, Engineering, Customer Success, Finance, and Operations teams that you do not directly manage.
Excellent written and verbal communication and strong executive presence with customers, partners, candidates, and internal leaders.
A builder’s mindset. You are comfortable with ambiguity, limited infrastructure, and changing plans, and you know how to introduce enough process and structure to improve execution without slowing the organization down.
High agency and low ego. You are willing to personally do the work required to establish the region while simultaneously building an organization that will eventually make you less central to every decision.
A strong perspective on how technology GTM is changing in the age of AI and what those changes mean for winning customers and building partnerships in APAC.
