Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code. We're looking for a Sales Compensation Manager (IC) to join our Variable Compensation team within RevOps. This role sits on a small, fast-moving team that owns the full lifecycle of sales compensation — from plan design and stakeholder alignment to tooling administration and payout accuracy — working closely with RevOps, Finance, and Sales leadership to shape how our go-to-market teams are paid and incentivized. About the role Our GTM org is scaling fast. As we expand into new segments and geographies, the number of roles and individuals on a sales compensation plan is growing with it. You'll be designing plans from the ground up, navigating ambiguity, and building the process infrastructure that makes accurate, timely commission payouts possible at scale.

The right person will be able to wear multiple hats — equally comfortable owning the commission calculations, the plan design, the stakeholder conversations, and enablement. If you've been the person on a small comp team who is able to balance the entire sales compensation process — you'll feel right at home. What you’ll do - Design, build, and administer variable compensation plans across GTM, globally - Implement metrics for the plans that are specific, measurable, and align with company priorities - Own day-to-day commissions administration and calculations, ensuring payments are accurate and timely - Collaborate with Finance on payout reporting, commission accruals, and ad hoc analysis - Lead stakeholder c
