Job description

Director of Channel Partnerships About Arango At Arango , we believe the first generation of enterprise AI missed something essential :

  • context.
  • LLM models are powerful, but they didn’t understand the context needed to deliver accurate answers.
  • Arango provides a trusted data foundation for the next wave of Enterprise AI with graph-based Contextual AI — transforming enterprise data into a System of Context that truly represents the business, so LLMs can deliver better outcomes with unlimited scale and cost efficiency.
  • The Arango AI Data Platform gives developers a single, integrated environment to build and scale AI-powered applications without the complexity of stitching together multiple databases and tools.
  • At its core is a massively scalable multi-model database that unifies graph, vector, document, and key-value data with full-text, geospatial, and vector search — creating the System of Context, the bridge between enterprise data and LLMs.
  • We’re a global team based in California and Cologne, united by curiosity, collaboration, and a passion for helping developers, data engineers, and technology leaders innovate faster and smarter with AI.
  • Trusted by NVIDIA, HPE, the London Stock Exchange, the U.S.
  • Air Force, NIH, and Articul8, Arango powers enterprise AI with context, confidence, and scale..We are a proud member of the NVIDIA Inception Program and the AWS ISV Accelerate Program.  If you’re excited about shaping the future of Contextual AI, come build with us.
