AboutThe Role
Role Mission:
To execute world‑class GTM architectures and Salesforce configurations that transform our clients' CRM environments into high‑velocity revenue engines.
You are the technical champion. While the Director of Rev Ops defines the high‑level architecture and leads the pitches, you own the execution. You are responsible for making the blueprint a reality within Salesforce, ensuring data hygiene, routing logic, and reporting are flawless.
What You Bring- Technical Prowess: You are a Salesforce wizard. You think in ERDs. You know when to use a Formula Field vs a Flow. You have battle scars from messy data migrations.
- Consultant Mindset: You don't just take tickets; you ask "Why?". You can explain to a Sales Manager why a specific validation rule is going to save their team 5 hours a week.
- Agency DNA: You understand that Time is Money. You are disciplined with time‑tracking and thrive in a high‑velocity, multi‑client environment.
- Precision‑Obsessed: You have a "double‑check" culture. You wouldn't dream of pushing a Flow to production without testing it in a Sandbox first.
- 4+ years of deep Salesforce Administration/Strategy experience (SaaS experience preferred).
- 2+ years in a client‑facing agency or consultancy is highly preferred.
- Expert‑level knowledge of Salesforce Flows (Workflows and Process Builder are "dinosaurs" to you).
- Experience with the modern Rev Ops stack:
Lean Data, Gong, Outreach/Salesloft, and CPQ tools. - Proven ability to manage multiple projects concurrently without dropping the ball.
- Salesforce Certified Administrator (Advanced Admin or Platform App Builder preferred).
- Compensation for this role includes a competitive base salary.
- Medical, dental, vision plans, disability, and life insurance coverage for you and your family that fit your lifestyle; 100% employer‑paid plan for you and 50% employer contribution for dependents.
- Benefits to support the whole person.
- Mental — access to certified therapists through Spring Health, membership to Headspace.
- Physical — Gympass.
- Time Off — Unlimited PTO (2‑week minimum), paid company holidays, your birthday off, end of year recharge (closed December 24 – January
1), paid parental leave. - Financial — Traditional and Roth 401(k) with a 3% company match.
- Bonus — Annual bonus based on tenure, which scales in total amount over time.
- Annual anniversary trip with peers and executive leadership for fun and entertainment.
