Rubrik, the Cloud Data Management Company, has appointed Bertrand Yansouni as the company’s VP of Worldwide Channel. In this role, Yansouni will develop and lead the global vision and strategy for Rubrik channel partners, including value added resellers, distributors and solution providers. Yansouni will report to Mark Smith, EVP of Global Sales and Business Development.
 
Yansouni has helped design and execute highly leveraged go-to-market strategies at market-defining enterprise technology companies for over 25 years. In his most recent role as Google Cloud’s VP of Global Partner Sales and Strategic Partnerships, he was responsible for a go-to-market partner ecosystem of 13,000 partners and led a business unit that achieved 300% YoY growth.
 
“From day one, Rubrik has pursued a 100% channel driven go-to-market strategy. We're excited to broaden our capabilities with Bertrand taking leadership of Channel and Randy Schirman focusing exclusively on our rapidly growing Managed Service Provider business,” said Bipul Sinha, Co-founder and CEO, Rubrik. “Bertrand's 25 years of experience building high-performing channel organizations is a big win for Rubrik, our partners and customers.”
 
Prior to joining Google, Yansouni was VP of Global Partner Sales at Cloudera, the leading provider of Apache Hadoop-based software, services and training. Yansouni has also held channel leadership roles at Riverbed and VMware. Yansouni holds a BSIE from Stanford University and an MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business.

“Today’s enterprises must provide instant application availability to weather data corruption, disasters and cyber threats like ransomware. Rubrik’s game-changing Cloud Data Management Platform answers these fundamental challenges while simplifying the path for cloud adoption and automation at scale,” said Yansouni. "I’ve witnessed the rapid uptake of Rubrik’s technology, and this is a huge opportunity for the channel. I’m thrilled to join the company at this exciting time."
