Today, Fireworks is a Series D company valued at $17.5 billion, bringing together an ambitious, collaborative team that's building the future of enterprise AI.
The Role
Our GTM team is growing 10x. As the leader of GTM Engineering you will set the architecture, drive our AI roadmap, or deliver on the auto-magical future that empowers every customer facing role.
You'll own the full GTM tech stack: Salesforce, CPQ, enrichment, engagement tooling, and the connective tissue between systems serving a growing org of BDRs, AEs, SAs, and managers. You'll also be the person who brings agentic AI from concept to production for our GTM teams, not as an experiment, but as the new operating baseline.
This is a builder and leader role. We're not looking for someone to manage vendors or coordinate rollouts. We want someone who will make hard architectural decisions, ship fast, and raise the bar for what great looks leading a GTM Engineering team.
What You'll Own
1. GTM Tech Stack and AI Foundations
Own every tool the GTM organization runs on: Salesforce architecture, enrichment layer (Clay, Harmonic, Sumble), routing (LeanData), engagement (Gong, Lemlist, Granola), and the integrations between them. As we scale from roughly 50 to 300+ GTM team members, the architectural decisions you make now are the ones that compound.
2. Quoting and Lead-to-Revenue Architecture (0 to 1)
We don't have a real CPQ solution today. Deal approvals run through Slack, order forms are built in Google Docs, and the billing handoff is fragile. You'll build a durable quoting and lead-to-revenue architecture from scratch, whether that's native Salesforce CPQ, a purpose-built tool, or a custom solution. The goal: an AE can take a deal from pricing to signed order form without RevOps as a bottleneck.
3. Agentic Workflows for GTM Teams
BDRs, AEs, SAs, sales managers, and RevOps are all under-leveraging AI today. You'll build the workflows that change that: AI-assisted account research, rep-facing deal intelligence, automated pipeline hygiene, manager insights. These should be workflows the team can't imagine working without, not demos.
4. Build and Scale the GTM Engineering Team
You're inheriting two strong engineers. You'll grow from there: defining hiring profiles, setting technical standards, building career paths, and maintaining a culture where high-quality, fast-shipping work is the norm.
Minimum Qualifications
10+ years in GTM Engineering, Revenue Operations, or Sales Operations at B2B companies; Consumption business model experience strongly desired

Has built or rebuilt a quoting or CPQ workflow at meaningful scale
Has led a team and set technical direction, not just managed execution

Experience scaling GTM systems through a high-growth phase (Series B to D)
Familiarity with usage-based or consumption pricing models
Has worked at an AI/ML infrastructure, developer tools, or API-first company
