Qualification
7+ years in pricingOperational rigorExecutive communicationBonus
Required
7+ years in pricing, monetization, packaging, or revenue strategy, with substantial time spent executing in-house at a B2B SaaS company, not only advising on it. A consulting or pricing-firm background is a real asset; we're looking for people who have since taken that thinking into an operating role.
Experience in B2B with Enterprise Customers (2000+ employees)
Strong analytical and financial modeling ability. You can build the model yourself, and you're comfortable working through product analytics partners to get the data behind it. You don't need to build the dashboard, but you know exactly what to ask for.
A proven track record of pricing and packaging changes you took to market, and evidence of what they did. We're more interested in decisions you own than frameworks you're familiar with.
Operational rigor. You bring structure to ambiguous, multi-team work and can drive it to completion across organizations.
Executive communication. You can distill complex commercial tradeoffs into a clear recommendation with senior stakeholders across Finance, Product, and Go-to-Market.
Bonus: hands-on experience monetizing AI products, usage- or consumption-based models, or a track record of standing up pricing and monetization from the ground up across multiple early-stage companies.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience. MBA welcome, not required.
