Introduce rigorous performance management, defining metrics, dashboards, roadmaps, OKRs, and operating practices that connect technology delivery to measurable business outcomes. Build and lead the enterprise applications organization, including hiring, organizational design, coaching, performance management, career development, and succession planning across technical and functional roles. Develop technical and delivery talent, creating clear roles, career paths, and leadership capabilities across architects, developers, administrators, and business analysts. Partner with executive stakeholders across Finance, Sales, Revenue Operations, HR, and Operations to translate business priorities into scalable application solutions. Manage strategic vendors and technology spend, including platform budgets, software licensing, RFP/RFI processes, contract negotiations, systems integrator relationships, and total cost of ownership. Own key technology partnerships, managing relationships with major platform providers, influencing product roadmaps, navigating contract cycles, and resolving escalated issues.

Requirements: 12+ years of experience in enterprise technology, enterprise applications, business systems, or a closely related field, including 5+ years leading application platform teams at Director level or above. Extensive Salesforce leadership experience, including demonstrated success scaling Salesforce environments in high-growth organizations and hands-on experience with CPQ and Billing in production. Proven experience leading end-to-end quote-to-cash transformations, from opportunity and quoting through billing and revenue recognition. Broad enterprise applications expertise beyond Salesforce, ideally including NetSuite, Coupa, and HR/HCM platforms such as Workday. Hands-on delivery experience, with a track record of leading implementations, integrations, enhancements, and system improvements rather than managing exclusively from a strategic distance.

Experience with automation and emerging technologies, with exposure to AI-enabled business tools and the judgment to apply appropriate governance and human oversight. Proven people leadership experience, including building and managing teams of architects, developers, administrators, analysts, and managers. Experience managing significant technology budgets and vendors, including multi-million-dollar platform investments, software licensing, RFP/RFI processes, contract negotiations, and systems integrators. Experience in multi-entity or post-acquisition environments, with the ability to consolidate systems, standardize processes, and create scalable enterprise architectures. Experience in private equity-backed or high-growth organizations is highly relevant, particularly where technology must support rapid growth while improving operational efficiency. Exceptional executive communication and stakeholder management skills, with demonstrated ability to partner effectively with C-suite and senior Finance and go-to-market leaders. Strong strategic and analytical capabilities, combined with a hands-on, execution-oriented approach to turning ambiguous business requirements into scalable systems. Experience in data-intensive, analytics-driven, automotive, financial services, or information services environments is preferred. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related discipline required; an advanced degree or relevant certifications is a plus. Benefits: Starting salary: $210,000–$240,000 USD per year for U.S.-based employees. The corresponding Canadian salary range is $200,000–$230,000 CAD per year.
