Shape the future of monetization:
Director, Pricing Strategy - AI & Consumption Models

As AI fundamentally reshapes the software landscape, the traditional "per-seat" SaaS business model is evolving and creating hybrid opportunities. We are seeking a Director of Pricing Strategy to lead our monetization evolution, architecting and executing our strategic transition from named-user licensing to incorporate multifaceted dynamic, AI-native consumption models.

In this critical leadership role, you will architect and execute our strategic transition from only named-user licensing to incorporate multifaceted dynamic, AI-native consumption models to our existing models. You will bridge the gap between our engineering infrastructure, product management, and go-to-market execution, ensuring we monetize all our capabilities profitably while aligning our pricing directly with the value our customers receive.

What Makes This Role Great:

Key Exciting Responsibilities

• Drive the end-to-end strategic shift from a traditional seat-based subscription model to hybrid or pure consumption-based pricing models like credit drawdowns, token metering, or compute-based tiers.
• Define optimal pricing vectors for AI features, determining when to charge by the token, compute time, API call, or agentic outcome.
• Partner with Engineering and Finance to model the volatile costs of AI infrastructure against customer willingness-to-pay, ensuring strong gross margins at scale.
• Design advanced sales plays, ROI calculators, and usage estimation frameworks to help enterprise sales teams confidently pitch and negotiate consumption commitments.
• Collaborate with Rev Ops, Engineering, and Finance to ensure complex metered pricing integrates smoothly with billing, CPQ infrastructure, and evolving financial recognition policies.

Essential Skills & Experience

• Proven track record of leading a B2B software company through a monetization transition from seat-based pricing to consumption, metered, or hybrid pricing models.
• Deep understanding of AI unit economics, including token processing, inference minutes, and compute costs.
• Exceptional quantitative and financial modeling capabilities with hands-on experience using advanced Excel, SQL, or Python to analyze complex usage data.
• Demonstrated cross-functional leadership skills with the ability to build consensus across Executive, Product, Sales, and Finance teams.
• Hands-on experience working with modern metered billing systems such as Stripe Billing, Metronome, or Zuora, alongside Salesforce CPQ.

Bonus Points For:

• Previous pricing leadership experience at an AI infrastructure company, data platform, or hyperscaler.
• Familiarity with outcome-based pricing models for autonomous AI agents or market equilibrium modeling.
