• Drive complex, cross-organizational programs spanning multiple domains, ranging from internal platform improvements to customer-facing software delivery.

• Measure the quantifiable impact of implemented outcomes and define clear KPIs to ensure successful execution and sustainable improvement.

• Enable structure and clarity in ambiguous problem spaces, driving decisions and mitigating risks even with incomplete data.

• Maintain a deep technical understanding of the solutions being built, identifying hidden technical risks and resolving upstream and downstream technical dependencies.

• Act as a force multiplier by introducing scalable processes, and driving organizational efficiency at the company level.

What We Look For

• 8+ years of experience driving strategic technical initiatives across multiple functions and influencing VP+ stakeholders.

• Experience creating and evolving program management frameworks and practices.

• Deep expertise in one or more of the following domains: Business Platforms / Enterprise Systems, Commercialization, or cross-system process automation. Experience leading Quote-to-Cash (Deal Operations) initiatives is a strong plus.

• Expertise in Fit-Gap Analysis and leading design and technical trade-off discussions to closure.

• Advanced ability to define and break down ambiguous and complex business problems.

• Strong communication skills with the ability to convey complex ideas authoritatively and influence executives and department leadership.

• Experience driving cross-system process automation and integrations across business-critical workflows (e.g., quoting, pricing/discounting, approvals, contracting, order handoff, invoicing) is a plus.

• Experience with Salesforce CPQ and/or adjacent enterprise systems and integrations that support Quote-to-Cash workflows is a plus.

• Familiarity with compliance, access controls, and secure integration practices in enterprise systems is a plus.

• Experience in the enterprise software industry, SaaS and B2B experience preferred.

• Comfortable thriving in a rapidly scaling, dynamic startup environment.
