Role Summary 

As Mistral's first Director of Systems Integrators, you will build and lead our global SI ecosystem, turning top GSIs into strategic growth engines for our AI platform

This is a high-impact, revenue-critical role where you'll:

• Define and execute Mistral's SI partnership strategy, aligning with our GTM, product, and engineering teams.

• Negotiate and close global SI agreements, ensuring Mistral's open-source models are embedded in enterprise workflows.

• Build and scale a high-performance SI team, setting the playbook for how we collaborate, co-sell, and co-innovate with the world's largest integrators.

You'll work directly with Mistral's founders and executive team, shaping how enterprises adopt AI—from pilot to production

What you will do

Strategic Partnerships

• Lead end-to-end SI relationships, from initial engagement to joint go-to-market execution.

• Develop and launch co-branded offerings with top GSIs, ensuring Mistral's platform is the default choice for enterprise AI.

• Drive alignment between SI sales/technical teams and Mistral's GTM org, removing blockers and accelerating deals.

• Establish executive sponsorship at SI partners, ensuring Mistral is a top-tier priority in their AI practice.

Team & Ecosystem Leadership

• Hire, coach, and mentor a world-class SI team, setting clear performance expectations and a culture of ownership.

• Collaborate with Product/Engineering to ensure our platform meets SI and enterprise needs (e.g., on-prem deployments, custom integrations).

• Enable SI consultants to sell, deploy, and support Mistral's solutions at scale.

GTM Collaboration

• Integrate SI-led selling into Mistral's global GTM motion, working closely with regional sales leaders.

• Host quarterly business reviews with SI execs to track progress, resolve issues, and unlock new opportunities.

Who you are:

Must-Have:

• You've built and scaled SI partnerships at a top cloud provider, AI startup, or enterprise software company

• Player-coach: Equally skilled at leading a team and closing high-stakes deals.

• Builder mentality: You thrive in early-stage, high-growth environments—creating playbooks, not following them

• You understand AI/ML deployment, cloud architectures, and enterprise sales motions.

• Executive presence: You can align C-level stakeholders on strategy and execution

Nice-to-Have:

• Experience with open-source or commercial open-source models 

• EMEA enterprise expertise, including navigating regulatory and local SI landscapes.
