Kelly Kohlleffel

Kelly currently leads the Fivetran Partner Sales Engineering organization where he collaborates with a broad ecosystem of technology partners and consulting services partners on modern data stack solutions and approaches.
He previously led the GTM team (sales, technical sales, marketing, and alliances) at Hashmap (acquired by NTT DATA) and also hosted Hashmap on Tap, a weekly podcast focused on data company founders and industry leaders. Kelly enjoys all aspects of the data industry and prior to Hashmap helped grow Hortonworks (one of the pure-play Big Data / Hadoop providers) across the energy industry and worked closely with enterprise clients on data and technology solutions at Oracle.
He’s also passionate about his family and when he gets the chance to unplug from tech for a while you can catch him (usually with a family member) on the tennis court, basketball court, or on the lake in a kayak.
