Revenue Operations Manager
Critical Loop | Full-Time | Hybrid, Long Beach, CA (remote considered for the right candidate)
The Role
We are hiring our first dedicated Revenue Operations Manager. This is a net-new, foundational role, not a seat maintaining a system someone else built. You will own the tools, data, and processes that keep our revenue engine running as we scale: Salesforce, forecasting, commission tracking, and the full closed-won to cash flow.
Today this work sits with our Head of Revenue on top of selling and leading the team, and it has outgrown that arrangement. You will take it over end to end, report directly to the Head of Revenue with no layer in between and have a clean slate to build the RevOps function the way it should be built. You will work closely with Revenue, Product, Accounting, and Operations.
You will be the person who keeps our revenue data honest, our forecasts trustworthy, and our reps clear on exactly what they are earning.
What You'll Do
Own, manage, and roadmap Salesforce, including custom objects, flows, integrations, and dashboards that support accurate reporting on pWin, pipeline growth, segmentation, and revenue shape
Own the closed-won to invoice to collection process across sales, accounting, and the customer, and build a feedback loop that tightens cash conversion timing
Build and maintain a commission tracking system that gives both reps and accounting clear visibility into what is owed and why
Own revenue forecasting and reporting so leadership can rely on it for hiring and planning decisions
Maintain data integrity and pipeline hygiene across Salesforce, G-Drive, and the rest of the go-to-market stack
Partner across Revenue, Product, Accounting, and Operations to sequence work and surface issues before they slow the business down
Recommend and implement new tools and process as the company scales
Must-Haves
Deep, hands-on Salesforce expertise. You have personally built or rebuilt an org, not just maintained one someone else architected, and can speak to custom objects, validation rules, flows, integrations, and AppExchange decisions
Has owned or directly supported end-to-end Sales or Revenue Operations in a startup environment
A proven track record creating, managing, and iterating process from scratch, without waiting for tools or a playbook to exist
A self-starter who owns outcomes in ambiguity and can think on their feet
Comfortable holding forecasting, commission tracking, AR and cash conversion, and tooling at the same time
Nice-to-Haves
Experience at a Seed to Series C company; tech or SaaS background preferred
Familiarity with Google Workspace, Atlassian, and Slack
Experience using AI tools such as Agentforce, Slack AI, Claude, or ChatGPT with a human in the loop, and good judgment about what to automate versus keep manual
Experience building or formalizing a RevOps function from the ground up
Compensation
$110,000 to $135,000 base, plus a 10% annual bonus target and equity.
