About the role

Operating within our broader GTM Strategy & Operations team, you will own the global operating rhythm, operational infrastructure, and capacity planning for the entire SE organization. You will drive strategy across a highly matrixed, global environment. You are part strategist, part builder, and part operator - responsible for ensuring our pre-sales motion scales seamlessly.

What they're looking for

  • 6–8+ years of experience in GTM Strategy, Sales Operations, or Revenue Operations, with a distinct focus on supporting technical pre-sales, SE, or Solutions Architecture teams
  • Pre-Sales fluency: You intimately understand the mechanics of the technical win, POC lifecycles, and how SE capacity differs fundamentally from Account Executive quotas
  • Technical & Data fluency: You are highly analytical. You are comfortable diving deep into data, navigating CRM hygiene, and building out complex reporting and operational workflows directly within Sigma
  • Matrix leadership: You thrive in a matrixed global environment, highly capable of influencing cross-functionally across Sales, Ops, Finance, and Product without relying on direct authority
  • Analytical rigor: You are deeply comfortable building complex capacity models, analyzing funnel conversion metrics, and modeling headcount plans from scratch
  • Builder's mindset: You don't just want to run the playbook, you want to write it
