Resumo da oferta

Sierra is seeking a Deal Operations Manager to join a cross-functional team at the intersection of Sales, Finance, Legal, and Product. You will ensure deals move quickly, accurately, and profitably from proposal to signature.

You will own end-to-end deal support, design deal desk processes with governance, build tools and dashboards, and apply AI-native workflows to scale deal execution across enterprise opportunities.

Qualificações

• 3+ years of experience in deal desk, sales operations, revenue operations, or management consulting.
• Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills; comfort with financial modeling and deal economics (discounting, margin, ARR impact).
• Experience with CRM platforms (Salesforce preferred) and contract/CLM tools (Ironclad, DocuSign).
• High attention to detail - you catch pricing errors and contract inconsistencies before they become problems.
• Ability to manage multiple live deals simultaneously under time pressure without sacrificing accuracy.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting recommendations to Sales leadership and executives.
• A proactive, builder mentality - comfortable creating process from scratch in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment.

Responsabilidades

• Own end-to-end deal support: structuring pricing, building proposals, and running approval workflows for enterprise and strategic deals.
• Partner with Sales to design and maintain deal desk processes, discounting guardrails, and approval matrices that balance speed with governance.
• Work cross-functionally with Legal, Finance, and Product to unblock non-standard terms, custom packaging, and multi-year/multi-product deals.
• Build and maintain tools/dashboards (Salesforce, Sheets, or internal systems) to track deal pipeline, cycle time, and win/loss trends.
• Analyze deal data to identify bottlenecks in the sales cycle and recommend process improvements.
• Support quote-to-cash processes, ensuring accuracy in contract terms, billing setup, and revenue recognition handoffs.
• Own special projects related to pricing strategy, packaging, discounting policy, and international deal structures.
• Leverage AI-native tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor) to automate repetitive deal workflows and create scalable systems.

Descrição da oferta de emprego

About us

At Sierra, we're building a platform to enable every company in the world to build better, more human customer experiences with AI. We partner with industry leaders such as SoftBank, Uber, Rivian, CLEAR, and Sutter Health. We are primarily an in-person company based in San Francisco, with growing offices across North America, Europe, and Asia.

We are guided by a set of values that are at the core of our actions and define our culture: Trust, Customer Obsession, Craftsmanship, Intensity, and Family. These values are the foundation of our work, and we are committed to upholding them in everything we do.

Our co-founders are Bret Taylor and Clay Bavor. Bret currently serves as Board Chair of OpenAI. Previously, he was co-CEO of Salesforce (which had acquired the company he founded, Quip) and CTO of Facebook. Bret was also one of Google's earliest product managers and co-creator of Google Maps. Before founding Sierra, Clay spent 18 years at Google, where he most recently led Google Labs. Earlier, he started and led Google’s AR/VR effort, Project Starline, and Google Lens. Before that, Clay led the product and design teams for Google Workspace.

About the Role

We're looking for a Deal Operations Manager to sit at the intersection of Sales, Finance, Legal, and Product, helping structure, price, and close complex enterprise deals. You'll be the operational backbone of our sales motion - ensuring deals move quickly, accurately, and profitably from proposal to signature.

What you'll do

• Own end-to-end deal support: structuring pricing, building proposals, and running approval workflows for enterprise and strategic deals.

• Partner with Sales to design and maintain deal desk processes, discounting guardrails, and approval matrices that balance speed with governance.

• Work cross-functionally with Legal, Finance, and Product to unblock non-standard terms, custom packaging, and multi-year/multi-product deals.

• Build and maintain tools/dashboards (Salesforce, Sheets, or internal systems) to track deal pipeline, cycle time, and win/loss trends.

• Analyze deal data to identify bottlenecks in the sales cycle and recommend process improvements.

• Support quote-to-cash processes, ensuring accuracy in contract terms, billing setup, and revenue recognition handoffs.

• Own special projects related to pricing strategy, packaging, discounting policy, and international deal structures.

• Leverage AI-native tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor) to automate repetitive deal workflows and create scalable systems.

What you'll bring

• 3+ years of experience in deal desk, sales operations, revenue operations, or management consulting.

• Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills; comfort with financial modeling and deal economics (discounting, margin, ARR impact).

• Experience with CRM platforms (Salesforce preferred) and contract/CLM tools (e.g., Ironclad, DocuSign).

• High attention to detail - you catch pricing errors and contract inconsistencies before they become problems.

• Ability to manage multiple live deals simultaneously under time pressure without sacrificing accuracy.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting recommendations to Sales leadership and executives.

• A proactive, builder mentality - comfortable creating process from scratch in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment.

Our values

• Trust: We build trust with our customers with our accountability, empathy, quality, and responsiveness. We build trust in AI by making it more accessible, safe, and useful. We build trust with each other by showing up for each other professionally and personally, creating an environment that enables all of us to do our best work.

• Customer Obsession: We deeply understand our customers' business goals and relentlessly focus on driving outcomes, not just technical milestones. Everyone at the company knows and spends time with our customers. When our customer is having an issue, we drop everything and fix it.

• Craftsmanship: We get the details right, from the words on the page to the system architecture. We have good taste. When we notice something isn’t right, we take the time to fix it. We are proud of the products we produce. We continuously self-reflect to continuously self-improve.

• Intensity: We know we don’t have the luxury of patience. We play to win. We care about our product being the best, and when it isn’t, we fix it. When we fail, we talk about it openly and without blame so we succeed the next time.

• Family: We know that balance and intensity are compatible, and we model it in our actions and processes. We are the best technology company for parents. We support and respect each other and celebrate each other’s personal and professional achievements.

• Flexible (unlimited) paid time off

• Medical, dental, and vision benefits for you and your family

• Life insurance and disability benefits
