What they actually want (must-haves)
  • 4+ years in GTM/sales engineering, growth engineering, RevOps with heavy build responsibility, or software engineering with GTM exposure
  • Strong SQL and Python; comfortable owning production automations (APIs, webhooks, scheduled jobs, error handling)
  • Solid software engineering fundamentals: you write clean, maintainable code, think in systems, and are at home with version control, code review, and debugging
  • Fluency with AI-assisted development tools like Claude Code as a core part of how you work
  • Hands-on Salesforce depth: objects, flows, routing, and API-level integration work
  • Real experience putting LLMs into workflows — prompt design, evaluation, and knowing when AI is the wrong tool
Nice to have
  • Experience at a developer-facing or API-first company, or selling to technical buyers
  • Familiarity with dbt, BigQuery/Looker (or an equivalent warehouse + BI stack)
  • Experience building agentic workflows (multi-step AI systems, not just single prompts)
  • You've been the first GTM/growth engineering hire somewhere and built the function from scratch
