  • Drive operational excellence through automation by building tools, APIs, and reusable triggers that reduce manual work and accelerate decision-making
  • Serve as the technical bridge across Sales, Growth, Business Intelligence, Finance, Product, and Engineering, translating GTM objectives into scalable systems, KPIs, and measurable business outcomes
  • Recruit, coach, and scale a team of technically fluent builders while fostering a culture of ownership, experimentation, and measurable impact
