- Possess a proven track record of building and scaling systems, operations, and processes specifically within the SaaS industry.
- Naturally prioritize building automated, scalable workflows over implementing manual, one-off fixes for messy processes.
- Fully autonomous in your data work, capable of writing your own SQL, building custom dashboards, and conducting deep cohort analyses.
- Lead with a "spreadsheet-first" mentality, using advanced modeling and technical data skills to drive strategic decisions.
- Can seamlessly pivot from ghostwriting high-level strategy memos for the CEO to troubleshooting granular CRM lead-routing errors.
- Have the conviction to make high-stakes decisions in ambiguous environments with only 70% of the available data.

- Scalable Playbook Design: In close lockstep with Sales Enablement, you will translate high-level strategy into actionable playbooks. You’ll build the "Remote HR Way"—equipping our sales and success teams with the scripts, objection handling, and value-prop frameworks for the entire product suite.
