    Requirements

    • •In-depth experience developing and operating a deal desk function
    • •Strong understanding of SaaS pricing models, revenue recognition and ARR reporting principles, and enterprise contract structures
    • •Ability to negotiate and redline order-form-level terms directly with a customer and know when to involve Legal
    • •Experience configuring and operating both a CPQ and Salesforce
    • •AI-native working style with concrete examples of deal or approval workflows automated
    • •Outstanding communication skills and ability to influence and manage complex stakeholders such as Sales, Legal, RevOps, and Finance

    What You'll Do

    • •Build n8n's Deal Desk function from scratch, AI- and automation-first: intake, approval workflow, and pricing guardrails
    • •Advise Sales on deal structure and pricing to protect margin without slowing down the sales cycle
    • •Maintain a simple set of discount and pricing rules that Sales can apply on their own, without escalating every deal
    • •Run a monthly and quarterly deal war room to keep deal velocity high, especially around month-end and quarter-end close
    • •Handle contract redlines and non-standard terms directly, keeping most negotiations out of Legal's hands
    • •Build a redline clause library of accepted and rejected language, so AI can suggest fallback terms on routine deals
    • •Automate approvals and quoting in CPQ, and use AI to triage incoming requests and flag which deal changes actually need re-approval
    • •Own Salesforce data quality and executed-contract hygiene for every deal
    • •Support Customer Success on non-standard renewal and expansion structuring
    • •Coordinate security and compliance requests (DPA, SOC 2, security addenda) between Sales, Security, and Legal
    • •Report monthly on deal desk performance: cycle time, discounting, and exceptions

    Nice to Have

    • •Experience spinning up a deal desk or similar function from the ground up, defining the underlying processes and policies
    • •Experience with Salesforce CPQ or modern platforms like Hyperline or Solvimon
    • •Curiosity about n8n and ideally having already successfully built a workflow
