Who You Are
Ontic is looking for a Director of Product Operations to join our Revenue Operations organization. As part of a centralized RevOps organization, this role sits at the intersection of Product, GTM, and Revenue Operations - helping to translate Product needs, roadmap and outcomes into effective/integrated GTM processes and GTM insights into actionable Product team insights & prioritization. Partnering closely with the Product leadership team, you'll own the systems, processes and cross-functional cadences that keep product and revenue teams aligned as we scale.
This is a highly cross-functional, high-visibility role suited for someone who can function independently, build from scratch and operate equally well in a spreadsheet, a roadmap review and a QBR. This is an individual contributor role with the potential to scale and build the function as the company grows.
