Requirements
  • 10+ years of engineering experience, including time as a tech lead or leading other tech leads on complex enterprise software projects.
  • Deep hands-on knowledge of at least one major customer relationship management data model and platform, such as Salesforce, Dynamics, or HubSpot, including objects, sharing and permission models, history tables, bulk and change-data APIs, and platform limits.
  • Practical understanding of how sales representatives and managers use customer relationship management tools day to day, including where forecasting, pipeline hygiene, and territory data break down.
  • Experience shipping production agents with tool use, permissioned writes, and human-in-the-loop review.

  • Ability to collaborate across product, engineering, and design teams to align technical strategy with company growth objectives.
  • Ability to translate ambiguous customer problems into scrappy minimum viable products and iterate quickly based on data and user feedback.

  • Lead the modeling of sales and customer relationship management objects, relationships, and history into a representation that agents can reason over reliably.
  • Lead development of agents used by sales representatives, sales management, and revenue operations.
  • Define the write path back into the system of record, including permissions, validation, idempotency, audit, and human approval.

  • Partner with product management, design, and other engineering teams to build intuitive, scalable, and extensible solutions that drive user and business growth.
  • Create novel interfaces for generative artificial intelligence agents that manage complex workflows while keeping humans in the loop through inspectability and transparency.
Desired Qualifications

  • Experience building revenue operations, forecasting, or configure-price-quote-adjacent products.
  • Experience working in-house on a Salesforce platform team or at a systems integrator.

Pengana's AIX acquires 8% stake in $190B AI platform Databricks

ASX-listed AI Private Opportunities Trust has acquired a position in Databricks, allocating approximately 8% of its portfolio to the US data and AI company. San Francisco-based Databricks raised $5 billion in August 2024 at a $190 billion valuation. The platform serves over 70% of Fortune 500 companies and more than 20,000 organisations worldwide. Databricks crossed a $7 billion revenue run rate in its most recent quarter, growing over 80% year-on-year whilst maintaining positive free cash flow. This investment follows AIX's deployment of over one-third of its portfolio across positions including ByteDance, Helsing, and Handshake. The trust aims to provide Australian investors access to private AI market leaders typically limited to institutional investors. GCM Grosvenor manages the trust's investments and is in advanced discussions to close several additional positions.

Databricks hires ex-AWS executive to lead Asia partners amid 85% growth

Databricks has appointed former Amazon Web Services executive Briscoe to lead its Asia Pacific & Japan partner organisation. She previously headed AWS's partner operations in the region and held similar roles at Microsoft and Cisco. The move supports Databricks' regional expansion. In April, the company named Simon Davies as regional leader and reported over 85% year-on-year growth in its fourth quarter. It now has more than 1,500 employees across Asia Pacific & Japan and plans to establish headquarters in Singapore. Databricks works with over 1,000 partners regionally and 8,000 globally through its Brickbuilder Partner Network. The company's AWS business has surpassed a $1 billion run rate. International Data Corporation forecasts Asia/Pacific AI spending will reach $175 billion by 2028.
