Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA.

Responsibilities
- Generate quotes and sales orders accurately and on time, in close partnership with the Sales leads and account owners
- Own the accuracy of pipeline and forecast data in Salesforce: stages, close dates, amounts, and ownership
- Administer our CRM (Salesforce, today): support users, manage fields, reports, validation rules, and approval workflows
- Keep Salesforce current and honest as the source of truth for forecasting, new bookings, and renewals
- Produce the reporting that Sales, Customer Success, Finance, and leadership rely on
- Build and tune AI-assisted workflows using tools like Claude Cowork, OpenAI Codex, Gemini, and Agentforce
- Set up, refine, and hand off tools so the people who use them every day can run them without you
- Refine the steps and templates in quoting, renewals, and reporting, and replace manual effort with better process, configuration, or automation
- Build the connections that unify our disparate knowledge and data systems
- Work with Finance to report quote-to-cash status end to end: opportunity entry, forecasting, signed contract, purchase order, and payment
- Fulfill paperwork requests from partners and customers tied to specific deals
- Maintain partner certification document stores and assist with other compliance documentation items
- Serve as the operational point of contact for one-off requests from Sales and Customer Success
Skills
- 3+ years in Sales Operations, Revenue Operations, or CRM administration at a commercial SaaS company, or equivalent demonstrated ability
- 2+ years hands-on administering a modern CRM. We run Salesforce; comparable experience with HubSpot, Dynamics, or similar transfers. You can build and debug data-entry processes and automations, write validation rules, manage permissions, and reconcile discrepancies between account and opportunity records
- Demonstrated AI fluency. You've embedded an LLM, agent, or automation tool into a real workflow and can describe the outcome in concrete terms. You want to be the person who makes the whole team more efficient, and who makes others self-sufficient with the tools rather than dependent on you
- Strong written communication. You can write a clear update to Sales, a clean process or requirements doc for a developer, and an unambiguous email to a partner
- Order-to-cash literacy. You understand what a binding customer document is and treat it accordingly
- Bias for shipping. Good enough and delivered on time beats perfect and late, especially when there's a customer waiting
- Adaptable. This is a dynamic company; you adjust your approach as priorities, processes, and tools change
- Experience with Agentforce, headless Salesforce architectures, and production LLM integrations
- Experience with agentic coding and automation tools (OpenAI Codex, Claude Code) and building small internal tools with them
- Familiarity with government contracting processes. Not required, but useful if you have it
- Salesforce development chops are welcome, but time-sensitive customer deliverables come before code optimization
