Role Overview
As a Revenue Operations Senior Manager, you lead an AI-native, high-impact revenue operations function at Materialize, partnering with GTM and Finance to maximize growth by setting strategy, targets, reporting, and running the systems and processes that power a predictable revenue engine. You report to the VP of Finance & Operations and work closely with our Head of Sales and CEO.

Drive prioritization and roadmap decisions, partnering closely with GTM Systems, RevOps ICs, and external resources to execute
Build, manage, and grow a scalable, efficient, and AI-native team through part-time and full-time resources as the function scales, including vendor management and ROI analysis for key GTM tools such as Salesforce, HubSpot, Clay, and Apollo
Design, maintain, and continuously improve granular metrics, dashboards, and funnel reporting that support monthly business reviews, board meetings, and evolving targeting as the team learns
Own deal desk execution, partnering with AEs to maximize ARR and optimize deal structure while balancing legal, finance, and accounting considerations; build automated processes for order forms, proposals, and discounting frameworks, and align with Product and Finance on pricing and SKU definitions
Lead forecasting processes, partnering with the Head of Sales, CEO, and VP of Finance & Operations to monitor pipeline health, deal status, and expected close timelines, including running the weekly forecast meeting
Own annual and mid-year GTM planning in partnership with Finance and Sales, including capacity modeling, sales target setting, and territory and account assignment
Partner with sales leadership to refine ICPs, target account strategies, and industry focus areas
Own compensation and commissions design and administration
Partner with Sales and Marketing on sales enablement and onboarding, building documentation and materials that help reps ramp quickly
What We're Looking For
4+ years of experience in Revenue Operations, Sales Operations, or GTM Strategy roles at high-growth B2B companies
Experience in a top-down enterprise sales motion selling to senior executives
Proven experience managing Salesforce, HubSpot, Clay, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Gong, Outreach, Chili Piper, Apollo, or similar GTM systems
Prior work with automated, AI-native RevOps organizations and GTM automation tools (e.g., Clay)
Strong analytical and systems-thinking mindset
A builder's mentality, excited to scale processes, systems, and teams in a high-growth environment
Hands-on with financial modeling; comfortable building and maintaining revenue, capacity, and quota models that inform planning and forecasting
Comfort partnering with sales leadership and the broader sales team
Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to translate complexity into clarity for executives
Experience using SQL for data analysis is a plus
Experience with our specific tech stack is a plus
Experience in infrastructure, data, or developer-focused software companies is a plus
Exposure to marketplace, co-sell, or partner-driven motions is a plus

Role Overview
As an Enterprise Account Executive at Materialize, you are the commercial engine of a customer-facing team, owning pipeline generation, full-cycle deals, and expansion across a named account territory. You'll join a team of Account Executives working directly with our Head of Sales to engage engineering-led organizations building on Materialize to power AI agents, data-intensive applications, and real-time operational workflows for customers like Notion, General Mills, Bilt Rewards, and Crane Worldwide Logisitcs.
You own the deal from first call to close. In your first year, you'll build a pipeline of enterprise opportunities across inbound and outbound, close your first six-figure deals, and develop deep fluency in Materialize's technical differentiation and competitive positioning. This role is for someone who can hold a substantive conversation with Engineering leadership, thrives on complex technical sales cycles, and wants to own outcomes.
This role is based in our NYC office near Astor Place, with a minimum of 3 days per week in person.
Responsibilities
Generate new business pipeline through inbound fielding and outbound into named target accounts and high-intent prospects
Expand relationships in existing enterprise accounts, identifying and driving expansion opportunities across large organizations
Lead complex sales cycles end-to-end: scoping, demonstrating, negotiating, and closing six- and seven-figure deals
Sell mission-critical enterprise software to technical buyers — engineering executives, software architects, and development teams
Collaborate with Field Engineering on technical positioning, POVs, and deal strategy
Operate with MEDDPICC rigor and maintain strong Salesforce hygiene across your pipeline
Travel roughly 25–30% to build in-person relationships with prospects and customers and represent Materialize at key industry events
What We're Looking For
3+ years of enterprise software sales experience with a demonstrated track record of closing complex, six-figure deals to technical buyers; seven-figure deals a strong plus
Currently or recently selling at a database company: you understand the buyer, the competitive landscape, and what it takes to win in this category
You manage full-cycle enterprise sales: discovery, technical validation, negotiation, and close
A demonstrated outbound muscle: you've built pipeline from scratch
Comfortable engaging with C-suite and VP Engineering stakeholders, navigating complex procurement, and negotiating enterprise SaaS contracts
You've operated in lean, early-stage environments: you take initiative, move without a large support structure, and work directly with leadership
Proficient with Salesforce, Outreach, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator
Experience at a fast-growing startup is a plus
Location: NYC (hybrid, minimum 3 days/week at our Astor Place HQ)
Base Salary: $140,000-170,000 USD/year plus additional variable bonus and equity in addition to a full range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits. The base pay offered may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.

Investors:
Kleiner Perkins, Redpoint Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners.
About the Role
Our database technology sits at the heart of the Materialize product—a product that transforms years of cutting-edge academic research into the missing element of today’s data architecture. As a member of our Database team, you will join a team of ~10 incredible engineers focused on solving ambitious systems problems in service of delivering this remarkable product to our users.
Recent examples of the work the Database team focuses on include: evergreen efforts to drive down freshness & responsiveness while continuing to deliver correct, consistent results; making each layer of the system more easily scalable; building the right primitives to integrate with the varied software development lifecycles of our users; unifying memory and disk through transparent use of swap; making our release process more predictable and reliable; writing clear documentation both internally and externally; improving observability and debugging tooling; and deleting lots of no-longer-needed code.
This role is based in our NYC office (by Astor Place), with an expectation of ≥3 days per week in person.
Responsibilities
Design and deliver improvements to the Database, with an eye on correctness, reliability, and performance.
Own projects end-to-end, from early stage design to holding the pager.
Debug and resolve complex distributed systems issues, sometimes directly with customers.
Continually improve system reliability, observability, and automation.
Collaborate across your team, with Product, with Field Eng, and all other stakeholders to align on direction, carefully prioritize, and build the best product for our users.
Share your work through mentorship, demos, blog posts, and any other relevant channels.
About You
You have several years of experience developing software, and are passionate about distributed systems and/or databases. If you don’t use it already, you’re excited to learn Rust.
You take pride in owning your work all the way through. Whether it’s early design work, close code review, holding the pager, writing the docs, or teaching the system to your newest team member, you take responsibility for your work at every step.
You strive to make your work easy for others to understand. You write clear design docs and write clear, well-documented code. You love to take hard problems and make them simpler. And still simpler—until all of the complexity is boiled away.
You love to solve hard problems in service of the customer and you approach those hard problems from all perspectives. Some of your greatest engineering moments come from the times you solved problems by not writing any code.
You’re excited about working at the intersection of frontier academic research and the fast-paced realities of a venture-backed startup. You love the multidimensional problem of balancing engineering resilience, delivery speed, and product value.
You want to build something great.

ABOUT YOU
- You have several years of experience developing software, and are passionate about distributed systems and/or databases. If you don’t use it already, you’re excited to learn Rust.
- You take pride in owning your work all the way through. Whether it’s early design work, close code review, holding the pager, writing the docs, or teaching the system to your newest team member, you take responsibility for your work at every step.
- You strive to make your work easy for others to understand. You write clear design docs and write clear, well-documented code. You love to take hard problems and make them simpler. And still simpler—until all of the complexity is boiled away.
- You love to solve hard problems in service of the customer and you approach those hard problems from all perspectives. Some of your greatest engineering moments come from the times you solved problems by not writing any code.
- You’re excited about working at the intersection of frontier academic research and the fast-paced realities of a venture-backed startup. You love the multidimensional problem of balancing engineering resilience, delivery speed, and product value.
- You want to build something great.
