My background
Kris Billmaier is EVP & GM of Sales Cloud and Growth at Salesforce, where he leads product strategy, vision, and execution for Sales Cloud — helping customers of every size put the latest AI & core innovations to work. He’s spent 8+ years at Salesforce driving the product roadmap for sellers worldwide.
Before Salesforce, Kris spent 7 years at Microsoft across Product Management and Business Development, and built his product instincts even earlier as a founder — starting and scaling his own startup, YOUbeQB — along with product and business development roles at Sezmi and Digeo.
Kris brings a competitor’s mindset to product leadership: before his corporate career, he played collegiate baseball at the University of Notre Dame, where he served as team captain, and went on to play in the Detroit Tigers organization.
My expertise
Kris has spent over 15 years in technology product management and business development across CRM, office productivity, search technologies, and entertainment systems. His focus on building new products that help teams embrace the agentic future of selling, working closely with customers to help them take full advantage of innovations like Agentic Sales. Kris’ work spans product strategy, roadmap planning, and go-to-market execution, and frequently shares my perspective on how AI and agentic tools can empower sellers.
When I'm not working
Teams have been a constant throughout my life — from playing baseball at Notre Dame and in the minor leagues, to now coaching my daughter’s softball team. I enjoy staying close to competitive team sports outside of work.
