Requirements
  • 3+ years in revenue operations, sales operations, sales compensation, finance, or a closely adjacent function, with hands-on ownership of sales compensation work
  • Daily working fluency with AI tools (Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, n8n, Replit, or similar)
  • At least one shipped agentic workflow, internal tool, or skill that took real work off your plate or someone else's, with specifics on what it does and what it saves
  • Comfort directing AI to write SQL and validate outputs against source data. Independent SQL fluency is a plus
  • Cross-functional working style with Finance, Legal, and Sales leadership
  • Judgment under pressure during compressed close windows
Responsibilities
  • Translate the existing SQL-and-spreadsheets compensation process into agents, skills, and workflows so each cycle takes less manual work than the last
  • Provide payout-audit agent that pre-flags discrepancies against source data, a methodology skill that drafts and pressure-tests plan changes, an n8n workflow that routes representative escalations to the right reviewer, a Replit app that lets sales managers self-serve crediting questions, an agent that builds representative statements and explains the math
  • Run monthly and quarterly compensation cycles for all go-to-market teams. Resolve discrepancies, reconcile with Finance and Payroll, run close quality assurance. On-time cycles, errors caught before they escalate
  • Own the quarterly target-setting pipeline. Collect inputs, generate targets, drive approvals with the VP of Sales and Chief Financial Officer, finalize and distribute target packages. Partner with analytics on dashboards that make targets transparent to managers and representatives
  • Handle new-hire guarantees, crediting exceptions, split credit decisions, leave of absence and territory moves, SPIFF design and payout, and manager-level compensation questions. Sales and Finance judge the function on these calls
  • Own weekly and monthly forecast roll-ups across our go-to-market segments. Pressure-test representative and manager calls against pipeline data. Surface gaps to the VP of Sales and Chief Financial Officer before they show up in quarterly business reviews
  • Build and maintain pipeline dashboards covering coverage, stage conversion, velocity, and aging. Tie metrics back to compensation so managers see the full picture
  • Partner with financial planning and analysis on bookings forecasts, attainment modeling, and capacity planning for the next fiscal year
  • Lead the annual compensation planning cycle. Frame the plan, construct it across teams, run review and approval cycles with the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer, Vice President of Sales, and other leadership. Manage Legal review and acknowledgment. Run the rollout. Own the retrospective
  • Bring a point of view on how plans are designed, how targets are set, and how the process runs. Identify changes that improve fairness or speed, then ship them in the next cycle
Desired Qualifications
  • Experience designing or improving quota-setting methodologies
  • Audit support experience, with a habit of flagging issues in compensation data, plan mechanics, or payouts before they escalate
  • Familiarity with usage-based compensation plans and the attribution challenges they create
  • Experience with commission management platforms
  • Exposure to Salesforce data model, dbt, and business intelligence tooling (Mode, Looker)
  • Experience leading or co-leading an annual compensation plan redesign

Instawork is an online staffing platform that connects businesses with a large pool of vetted hourly workers for short-term, seasonal, and temp-to-hire roles. It uses an intelligent matching system to pair businesses with suitable workers from its database, supported by a thorough vetting process, and lets businesses view worker profiles and experience as shifts are picked. The service also allows hiring for full-time roles from the same pool, providing a single source for both temporary and permanent staffing. The goal is to make it easier for businesses to fill shifts with reliable workers and to scale the process of hourly staffing.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Robotics certification opens a new revenue stream beyond traditional shift matching.
  • Certified technicians help multi-site operators deploy robots without local support teams.
  • Hundreds of thousands of monthly task-data hours strengthen Instawork's robotics partnerships.

What critics are saying

  • Robotics remains experimental, so revenue can stay small through 2027.
  • Robot manufacturers will build in-house technician pools and bypass Instawork.
  • Worker-classification enforcement in California can force reclassification and margin compression.

What makes Instawork unique

  • Instawork Robotics Lab ties hourly staffing directly to physical AI deployment.
  • Twenty thousand Pros are already certified across robotics data and technician roles.
  • Instacore captures high-fidelity workplace data from kitchens, warehouses, and hotels.
