- Oversee the development of custom integrations & data pipelines, including APIs, between key systems such as Salesforce (SFDC), NetSuite, CPQ, Redshift, the Lob product platform, and third-party tools.
- Connect the strategy through partnering with system owners to build and integrate new software solutions into Lob’s existing tech stack.
- Evaluate and recommend optimization opportunities within the tech stack, advising on what tools to keep or eliminate.
- Serve as the project manager for technology-driven projects, coordinating cross-functional teams and managing timelines and deliverables.
- Collaborate with Finance, RevOps, Marketing, Product, and Engineering to ensure alignment on system enhancements and integration efforts.
What will you bring to this role…
- Extensive experience with building and managing CPQ platforms.
- Proven experience building custom integrations across systems such as SFDC, NetSuite, and data warehouses (Redshift).
- Solid understanding of the quote-to-cash lifecycle, including billing, invoicing, and revenue recognition.
- Proficiency in SFDC custom development (Apex, Visualforce, Lightning) and admin responsibilities.
- Experience with API development, management, and troubleshooting.
- Strong background in enterprise-level financial systems integration.
- Knowledge of best practices in project management for technology projects (Agile or PMP certifications a plus).
- Exceptional problem-solving abilities and an ability to collaborate across business units.
Recommended skills:
- Experience with middleware platforms (e.g., Polytomic, MuleSoft, Boomi, or Zapier) for API orchestration.
- Knowledge of financial systems and processes such as ASC 606 and revenue recognition methodologies.
- Strong understanding of data architecture, including the use of data warehouses like Redshift and ETL processes.
