Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Upwind is a next-generation cloud security platform providing runtime-based risk identification, cloud security management, threat protection, and API security. The Revenue Operations Manager will serve as the embedded operational partner for the North America sales team, owning forecast operations, pipeline management, deal support, reporting, process design, and cross-functional RevOps initiatives.
Responsibilities
- The North America sales partnership. Be the go-to operational partner for our VP of North America Sales, frontline managers, and reps. You are the first call on process, systems, deal mechanics, territory, and data questions, and you resolve them the same day wherever possible
- The weekly operating rhythm. Run the cadence that keeps the business honest: pipeline hygiene reviews, forecast call preparation and follow-through, and the weekly leadership rollup. Own forecast accuracy tracking and drive the discipline behind it
- Real-time problem solving and deal support. Debug and resolve process breakdowns as they happen (quoting, approvals, CRM, routing, commission questions triaged to the right owner), keeping sellers focused on revenue-generating activity. Support deal mechanics day to day: order forms, quoting workflows, and support on non-standard terms
- Business rhythm and insight. Maintain a daily pulse on pipeline health, forecast accuracy, and key KPIs. Build new field-facing Salesforce dashboards and partner on existing reporting. Lead QBR preparation and synthesize data into insights that change decisions, not just decks
- Process design at scale. Identify operational gaps and bring the field's usage perspective to workflow design, partnering with our Business Systems and GTM Engineering teams. Document as you go: playbooks, workflows, and CRM standards that survive beyond you. Reinforce forecasting discipline, pipeline hygiene, and data governance across the sales org
- The cross-functional bridge. Push RevOps initiatives into the field and carry field feedback back. Partner closely with GTM Enablement on rollouts, onboarding support, and adoption of the GTM stack (Salesforce, Clari, Slack), so tools and programs actually land with reps
Skills
- 5 to 7 years in Sales Operations, Revenue Operations, or Consulting; B2B SaaS at a high-growth company strongly preferred
- High ownership and bias to action. You don't wait to be asked, and you close loops without follow-up
- Seller empathy with operator discipline. You understand how reps and managers actually work, and you build process that helps rather than polices
- Builder's comfort with ambiguity. You've created structure where none existed and are eager to do it again
- Team-first humility. You come in curious, learn why things are built the way they are, and strengthen what works rather than rebuilding for its own sake. You'd rather make the team better than make your mark
- Excited to build with AI. Direct experience isn't required, but you should be genuinely eager to use AI in your daily work and to help design AI-powered workflows for the sales org
- Hands-on Salesforce fluency: building reports and dashboards, managing data, and driving CRM adoption. Clari or similar forecasting tools a plus
- Analytical rigor with strong Excel or Google Sheets skills; you find where the funnel leaks and quantify the fix
- Executive-ready communication. You can turn a messy operational picture into three bullets a VP acts on today
- Leader mindset. You've mentored teammates, raised the bar for people around you, or led initiatives across functions without formal authority. People naturally look to you when work needs organizing
- B2B SaaS at a high-growth company strongly preferred
- Clari or similar forecasting tools a plus
Benefits
- Remote work arrangement
