Ray Colletti serves as Vice President, Market Development at Primary Venture Partners. He is also an angel investor. He has spent his whole career working at high-growth B2B startups, first joining AppNexus as the 40th employee and, 2.5 years later, joining Datadog as the tenth. Ray feels as comfortable closing deals and cold calling as he does talking data pipelines and product architecture. At AppNexus, Ray started and grew the Ad Quality team, which was instrumental in AppNexus' ability to guarantee quality across the platform. When he made the switch to Datadog, he was excited by the prospect of serving in many different functions - from product to sales to customer success - and making an impact at such an early-stage. In 2017, Ray led technical implementations at nine of 15 Datadog's largest Enterprise customers and worked closely with 20 Fortune 500 companies. Ray is a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, where he majored in Political Science and Marketing.
