About the Role

We are hiring our first Director of Go-to-Market Engineering.

Perk's revenue organisation is 800 people selling to more than 10,000 companies. Behind them sits a CRM, an enrichment and signal stack, a growing set of AI agents - and a lot of manual work that no longer needs to exist. Your job is to remove it and to build the automated systems that replace it.

You will own GTM Engineering end-to-end: which tools we use, how the architecture fits together, what gets built, and what it does for revenue. You report to the VP of Revenue Operations, lead a small senior team across Europe and North America, and work across SDR, Account Executive, and Account Management - a few high-impact projects each quarter.

This is a player-coach role, and we mean it. You will be in Clay, in the orchestration logic, in the agent workflows, building alongside a team doing the same. You're using your experience to guide and coach them to accelerate the pace.

The other half of the job is commercial. The best GTM engineers we have met can sit with a regional Sales VP, work out why their pipeline isn't converting, and leave with the right thing to build. That instinct matters more to us than any single tool on a CV.

What You'll Do

Own the strategy and the stack

• Define Perk's GTM engineering architecture - how CRM, enrichment, signal, sequencing, orchestration and data layers fit together.

• Make the tooling calls: what we adopt, what we consolidate, what we retire, and why it pays for itself.

• Set the roadmap with the VP of Revenue Operations, Sales leadership, and the Revenue Systems and Data teams.

• Establish the standards the team builds to - version control, documentation, testing, and rollback.

Build, hands-on

• Design and build in Clay: tables, waterfall enrichment, AI columns, webhooks and API integrations in production.

• Own the orchestration layer - the logic deciding which records enter a workflow, when, and on what criteria. This is where GTM automation succeeds or fails.

• Build agentic workflows on modern LLM and agent tooling to take research, qualification, summarisation and data entry off people entirely.

• Write the code the job needs - Python, SQL, SOQL or TypeScript.

Automate across SDR, AE, and AM

• Own account prospecting automation globally: TAM sourcing, enrichment, ICP and intent scoring, prioritisation and distribution.

• Give AEs their selling time back - CRM autofill, quoting, meeting prep, opportunity hygiene, first outbounds.

• Build account intelligence for Account Management: risk signals, whitespace, account planning.

• Take each project from prototype to production properly - instrumented and validated before it scales.

Bridge commercial and technical

• Turn commercial problems into technical architecture, and technical output into impact a revenue VPs recognises.

• Understand Perk's revenue goals and how to leverage AI capabilities for us to achieve them quicker and more efficiently.

• Understand and drive clear and tangible commercial outcomes. For example, how to reduce the time that quota-carrying roles spend on non-core activities such as account research, be able to quantify the impact, and clearly communicate the outcomes to leadership.

Build the team

• Lead and grow a small, senior team across Europe and North America.

• Set clear ownership, and the review discipline that makes shipping fast also means shipping safely.

• Grow the team's technical depth and commercial judgement in equal measure.
