This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.
This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.
Overview We are seeking a highly detail-oriented and analytical Sales Compensation Analyst to join our GTM Strategy and Incentive Design team. As a Sales Compensation Analyst, you will be the backbone of our sales incentive ecosystem. You aren't just "crunching numbers"—you are ensuring that our sales teams are motivated, paid accurately, and aligned with the company’s strategic goals. You will sit at the intersection of Finance and Sales Operations, acting as a trusted advisor who translates complex commission structures into actionable data. The ideal candidate possesses a blend of meticulous analytical rigor and the communication skills to explain a "pay-out" logic to our high performing sales force.
Key Responsibilities Compensation Administration and Processing
- Manage the end-to-end monthly/quarterly commission cycle, ensuring accurate and timely payouts for the global sales force.

- Ensure compliance with all internal controls, company policies, and external regulations related to sales compensation.

- Identify and implement process improvements within the sales compensation function to enhance efficiency and accuracy.

- Domain Knowledge: Direct experience in Sales Compensation (Incentive Compensation Management) is a significant advantage.
- Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel. You don't just use Excel; you make it sing. Nested formulas, XLOOKUPs, and Pivot Tables are your second language.
- Experience with a Sales Performance Management (SPM) system (e.g., Xactly, Varicent, CallidusCloud) is an added advantage.
- Exceptional attention to detail and a high level of accuracy in data management and calculations.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to interpret complex data and present findings clearly.
- Ability to explain complex commission calculations in simple terms and handle sensitive pay-related conversations with patience, clarity, and professionalism.
Preferred Skills
- Experience navigating the complexities of a high-growth, international environment.
- Working knowledge with CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce).
