Full Job Description
Why this role, why now

As a Go-to-Market (GTM) Engineer you will sit at the intersection of Product, Sales, Operations, and Engineering - turning complex customer needs into scalable, automated solutions. You will own the technical backbone that enables our go-to-market motion to run with precision and speed, helping our GTM teams unlock new opportunities and accelerate growth.

This role blends systems thinking, lightweight engineering, and a deep understanding of GTM workflows. You will architect the tools, integrations, and processes that power our customer journey end-to-end, ensuring our teams can move quickly and consistently while maintaining high quality. If you enjoy solving ambiguous problems, creating leverage for cross-functional teams, and building scalable systems from scratch, this is an exceptional opportunity.

What you'll tackle
  • Design and build the systems, automations, and integrations that enable our GTM teams to work efficiently and consistently.
  • Partner closely with Sales, Marketing, Product, and Operations to translate business needs into technical solutions.
  • Work across Salesforce, Clay, Dust, HubSpot, Zapier, and Gong, owning the architecture, integrations, and workflows that connect these systems end to end.
  • Create scalable data pipelines and unified views that improve GTM visibility, forecasting, and prioritization.
  • Develop repeatable, automated processes that reduce manual work and improve accuracy across the customer lifecycle.
  • Diagnose system issues, eliminate process bottlenecks, and implement long-term fixes rather than short-term patches.
  • Evaluate and implement new tools, ensuring they integrate seamlessly into our broader ecosystem.
  • Support experimentation across GTM teams by rapidly building prototypes and iterating based on feedback.
  • A defined first 90-day plan: audit systems, implement quick wins, map GTM architecture, ship one high-impact automation.
  • A 6-12 month roadmap: build unified GTM data layer, redesign key workflows, deploy major integrations, and establish a stable operating cadence.


What makes you a great match
  • A strategic builder with 5+ years of hands-on experience designing scalable GTM systems within a high-growth startup environment
  • A commercial mindset who thinks about the ROI of their work, constantly asking questions like "Does this workflow actually help someone close a deal?"
  • An operator who dives into ambiguous problems, rolls up their sleeves, and collaborates closely with cross-functional partners
  • A systems thinker who can zoom out to long-term architecture decisions while executing quickly on near-term needs
  • Experience building systems and infrastructure with AI that makes the whole team more effective
  • A technical problem solver fluent in APIs, automation platforms, relational data structures, and CRM customization
  • A clear communicator who can translate between go-to-market teams and technical functions with ease
  • A meticulous executor who values accuracy, reliability, and repeatability across all workflows and data pipelines
  • An owner-mindset individual who thrives in building from 01 and improving from 1n
  • A data-oriented decision-maker who brings analytical rigor to evaluating opportunities, measuring impact, and prioritizing work


What you'll get
  • A mission-obsessed crew shipping with speed and sky-high standards
  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity
  • Onsite culture in San Francisco with annual offsites for deep strategy and team bonding
  • Unlimited vacation and generous parental leave
  • Monthly wellness stipend (mental and physical)

If shaping the story of climate action-while using AI as a force multiplier-sounds like your kind of challenge, we'd love to meet you.

Let's rebalance the planet together.

About AOL

AOL is an American web portal and online service provider based in New York City. It is a brand marketed by the current incarnation of Yahoo Inc. The service traces its history to an online service known as PlayNET. PlayNET licensed its software to Quantum Link, who went online in November 1985. A new IBM PC client launched in 1988, eventually renamed as America Online in 1989. AOL grew to become the largest online service, displacing established players like CompuServe and The Source. By 1995, AOL had about three million active users. AOL was one of the early pioneers of the Internet in the mid-1990s, and the most recognized brand on the web in the United States. It originally provided a dial-up service to millions of Americans, as well as providing a web portal, e-mail, instant messaging and later a web browser following its purchase of Netscape. In 2001, at the height of its popularity, it purchased the media conglomerate Time Warner in the largest merger in U.S. history. AOL rapidly shrank thereafter, partly due to the decline of dial-up and rise of broadband. AOL was eventually spun off from Time Warner in 2009, with Tim Armstrong appointed the new CEO. Under his leadership, the company invested in media brands and advertising technologies.
