About the role
Lead the sales enablement function from the ground up, owning onboarding, content, coaching, and tools to accelerate ramp, consistency, and performance for a high-growth observability-focused SaaS company.
Responsibilities
- Onboarding & Ramp: Design and run onboarding for new Account Executives, Solution Engineers, and SDRs, reducing time-to-first-deal and time-to-full-productivity; Build ramp plans, certification checkpoints, and role-play/practice frameworks — including technical certification on observability concepts and our own product architecture; Continuously refine onboarding based on rep feedback and ramp performance data
- Sales Content & Messaging: Create and maintain playbooks, battlecards, objection-handling guides, and discovery frameworks; Partner with Product Marketing to translate product updates and positioning into field-ready materials; Keep a single source of truth for sales content, retiring stale materials as the product and market evolve
- Coaching & Skill Development: Support managers in running effective call reviews and deal coaching; Run or coordinate ongoing training on sales methodology, technical/competitive positioning (e.g., vs. Datadog, Dynatrace, Splunk, New Relic), and objection handling; Identify skill gaps using call recordings, win/loss data, and pipeline metrics, and build programs to close them; Coordinate with SDR and SE leaders to build targeted coaching and training
- Tools & Process: Own the sales team's use of enablement and productivity tools (content management, call intelligence, LMS); Partner with RevOps on how enablement initiatives connect to Salesforce, Clari, Gong, and the overall end-to-end sales process; Use Claude to drive personalized training and accelerate processes to help the GTM scale
Qualifications
- Background in observability, monitoring, or infrastructure/DevOps tooling (e.g., Datadog, Splunk, New Relic, Dynatrace, PagerDuty), deep enough to speak credibly to technical buyers
- 7+ years total in sales enablement, sales training, SE, or AE roles, ideally at a B2B SaaS or observability/infrastructure company
- Ability to bridge deeply technical concepts into clear business language for both technical practitioners and executive buyers
- Experience building or significantly improving an onboarding/ramp program
- Strong writing and content creation skills — you can turn a messy product update into a crisp battlecard
- Comfortable working cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, Product, and RevOps
- Data-informed: you use ramp time, win rates, and rep feedback to prioritize, not just intuition
- Program management experience, including building enablement programs from the ground up in a fast-growing, ambiguous environment
- Startup mindset — comfortable building process where little exists, and iterating fast
- Strong presentation and facilitation skills, with experience delivering training or coaching in front of both managers and executives
- Prior experience at an early-stage or high-growth startup a plus
- Experience with tools like Salesforce, Gong/Zoom, and a content/LMS platform a plus
