Promoting From Within

Matt Bour joined DataDome in February 2023 as an enterprise business development representative. Since joining, not only has he smashed his objectives, he’s positioned himself as a leader and driving force within the US BDR team. He embodies DataDome’s four core values—Passion, Growth, Customer Centricity, and Team Spirit—and takes every opportunity to go above and beyond in efforts to better himself and his peers. For these reasons, Matt was promoted to commercial account executive in early October 2023!

Based in New York City, Matt chooses to go into the office three days a week. DataDome’s US HQ, located in the heart of Soho, is home to many functions at DataDome including sales, marketing, finance, people operations, strategy, and executive leadership. He explains “going to the office never feels like an act of labor because I know I have my people there. Having this level of exposure and ability to wear many hats helps me stay agile, aids immensely in my professional development, and provides me with a stronger business IQ in general.”

When asked about his experience during the end-of-year sales training, Matt says his biggest takeaway was the tone of cross-team collaborative sessions with Benjamin Fabre (Co-founder & CEO), Chris Raneire (Chief Revenue Officer), Aurelie Guerrieri (Chief Marketing Officer), and Andrew Hendry (Sr. Director of Product Marketing). After their informative presentations on product roadmaps, upcoming events, and feedback sessions to enhance the overall sales journey, Matt explains everyone pulled up chairs in a circle to discuss. From executives, to BDRs and AEs, every voice was heard and every idea was equal.

The executive team is so aligned in transforming and ensuring the outbound US sales process has every piece in place to succeed. Having most of the C-Suite in-person with us showcases that devotion.

Another key takeaway was learning more in-depth about DataDome’s growth journey—from its origination in 2015 to now—from Nicolas Tenacci, US Lead AE, who moved from Paris to NYC years ago to establish our sales presence in the states. Through stories similar to Nicolas’, it is obvious DataDome has been transformative and instrumental not only in professional lives, but personally as well.

As our team continues to expand, Matt explains, “future new joiners would want to join our team because when an idea sprouts, from any department, it is all hands on deck to execute priorities. Not only does our executive team hear us, they act quickly. We outperform Q4 year after year, which shows the amount of growth and career opportunity when joining the BotBusters.”
