Job Level
About the role
- Own the **end-to-end CPQ solution design**, from product catalog structure to quote, contract, and billing handoff
- Design CPQ to support: High SKU volumes and rapid quoting for self-serve / sales-assisted SaaS deals and complex Enterprise quotes with nested bundles, options, dependencies, and exceptions.
- Balance **standard CPQ features vs. customization**, keeping the system maintainable and performant.
- Drive continuous improvement by gathering user feedback and monitoring system performance.
- Enable sales teams to handle: High optionality and configurability without breaking CPQ and custom terms, non-standard quote lines, and exceptions.
- Design approval processes that are **robust but not obstructive**.
- Serve as the critical link between business stakeholders and technical teams, driving the delivery of scalable, efficient and user-friendly solutions
Requirements
- Deep, hands-on experience with **Salesforce CPQ **(implementation, not just administration)
- Proven track record implementing CPQ for: SaaS or subscription-based businesses and Complex Enterprise sales with high optionality.
- Strong understanding of: Product rules, price rules, discounting, amendments, renewals, and upgrades and quote lifecycle impacts on contracts, billing, and revenue recognition (at a practical level)
- Experience with Salesforce Billing or integration with external billing systems.
- Soft skills commensurate with a project leader, influencer and trusted advisor to VP-and-above positions.
- Salesforce CPQ and/or RevCloud certification(s)

- Exposure to usage-based or hybrid pricing models.
- Comfort working alongside heavily automated Salesforce orgs (Flow-first environments)
- Salesforce CPQ Specialist or Architect certifications
- **How You Think**
- You’re opinionated - but pragmatic

- You can say “no” to over-engineering and “yes” to smart abstractions.
- You understand that **CPQ is as much about business judgment as technical setup.
