Who You Are You're a quantitative, detail-oriented SalesOps analyst who has hands-on experience building compensation models and quota models. You build rigorous models, explain trade-offs to leaders, and execute operationally so compensation and growing headcount programs run smoothly. You embrace automation and are constantly using AI tools to improve efficiency, reduce manual work, and accelerate analysis. You're curious, organized, and comfortable working across People, Finance, Sales Leadership, and Analytics. What You'll Do
  • Compensation design & administration — build, test, and maintain compensation plan models (OTE, base/variable split, accelerators, SPIFs); run commission calculations, audits, and payout validations.
  • Quota & floor design — develop quota-setting methodology and quota floors by segment/role/location; run quota scenario modeling and sensitivity analysis; lead quota calibration exercises.

  • Promotions & special programs — assess promotion impacts on pay and quotas; design SPIFs/short-term incentives and measure program effectiveness.
  • Comp reporting & governance — own recurring comp reporting, ad-hoc analyses, and audit controls; document runbooks and change-management processes.
  • Systems & automation — partner with Systems/IT to maintain Salesforce and comp tooling, automate repetitive tasks, and improve data flows.
  • AI-enabled productivity — apply AI tools (LLMs, automation scripts, no-code/low-code tools) to speed model building, automate reporting, draft executive summaries, and improve accuracy.
  • Cross-functional partnership — translate technical models into clear recommendations and build trusted relationships with Revenue leaders, Finance, People/HR, and Recruiting. 
  • Executive communication – Present directly with the CEO and executive team.
What You've Done
  • 3+ years experience in Sales Operations, Sales Compensation, Revenue Operations, or Finance in a SaaS or high-growth environment.
  • Hands-on experience building and maintaining compensation models and quota models (commissions, accelerators, quota/PTO impacts).
  • Advanced Google Sheets / Excel skills (scenario modeling, pivot tables, complex formulas).
  • SQL fluency and experience with Salesforce (opps, territories).
  • Strong written/verbal communication and experience producing executive-ready decks.
  • Proven attention to detail and a control-minded approach to payouts and comp changes.
  • Comfortable adopting and using AI tools to accelerate analysis, automation, or content generation.
  • Experience with compensation platforms (CaptivateIQ, Xactly, Anaplan, or similar). [nice to have]
  • Prior exposure to headcount modeling and workforce cost scenarios. [nice to have]
  • Familiarity with forecast accuracy metrics (MAPE, bias) or formal forecasting processes. [nice to have]
  • Experience integrating AI tools into analytics workflows or building automation pipelines. [nice to have]
