- A proven track record in sales enablement or as a top-performing B2B SaaS sales rep who wants to move into enablement
- Fluency in English is non-negotiable, as this will be your primary language; a second European language (French, Italian, German, or Spanish) is a strong plus
- You understand the full anatomy of a B2B sales organization and know what good looks like at each stage
- You're a natural teacher: you make complex things simple, you hold a room, and you know how to give feedback that lands
- You're rigorous and data-driven: you don't just run programs, you measure them
- You're comfortable working across cultures, time zones, and stakeholders without losing focus
- You lead through influence. Enablement only works if the people on the floor buy in. You have no direct authority over Sales Managers or individual contributors and you actually don't need it. You make your case, you push back when it matters, and once a decision is made, you commit to it fully
- AI is part of your stack. You use LLMs and AI tools to produce better content faster and to extract signal from call recordings and performance data. At Doctrine, we build AI for legal professionals: the expectation is that our own team operates the same way
- Onboarding: You'll design and run the onboarding program for every new international sales hire: ramp frameworks, playbooks, certifications. The goal is simple: get new reps to first deal, fast.
- Commercial skill development: You'll build and run a continuous training program covering B2B SaaS sales techniques, discovery, pitch, objection handling, negotiation, and closing. This includes both group and individual coaching sessions, in close collaboration with Sales Managers.
- Product enablement: Working as a direct partner to the local PMMs, you'll translate product launches into sales-ready content: demo playbooks, pitch decks, objection handling guides, video training. You'll own the rhythm of product training sessions across the international team.
- Performance & iteration: You'll use call data (we have Modjo), CRM signals, and win/loss patterns to identify skill gaps and iterate on your programs. If something isn't working, you'll know before anyone else does.
- Knowledge base ownership: You'll manage and animate our knowledge base, keeping content up-to-date and activation high
Doctrine provides PHP libraries for database storage and object mapping, most notably the Object Relational Mapper (ORM) and the Database Abstraction Layer (DBAL). These open-source tools help PHP developers interact with databases by mapping PHP objects to database tables and by offering a unified API for database operations. The project is widely used across PHP frameworks such as Symfony, Laravel, and Laminas, and is maintained by a volunteer community under the MIT license. Unlike proprietary DB tools, Doctrine is funded through donations and sponsorships, and it also engages the developer community through blogs, events, and consulting. The goal is to give PHP developers stable, flexible database management capabilities and a reliable open-source ecosystem.

Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- Doctrine 3.4.0 aligns with PHP 8.4, expanding relevance for modern PHP teams.
- OpenCollective, GitHub Sponsors, and Tidelift provide recurring revenue and support channels.
- SkillDisplay partnership broadens Doctrine's training footprint and employer visibility across the PHP community.
What critics are saying
- ORM 3 adoption is only 25-30% of ORM 2, delaying ecosystem migration.
- ORM 2 branch enters maintenance-only mode in March 2026, slowing community momentum.
- Doctrine's volunteer model depends on sponsorships, leaving funding exposed if sponsor interest fades.
What makes Doctrine unique
- Doctrine ORM 3.4.0 added PHP 8.4 native lazy objects and property hooks.
- Doctrine pushed ORM 2 EOL to February 2027, protecting legacy PHP users.
- Doctrine still anchors Symfony, Laravel, and Laminas database abstractions across PHP.
