Why?

Twilio is a company that is empowering the world’s developers with modern communication in order to build better applications.

The mission of this team is to ensure a robust and scalable infrastructure for Twilio’s Pre-Sales and Post-Sales ecosystem. We will work with stakeholders across the GTM organization to ensure proper operations and infrastructure are in place to support our overarching business needs and strategic initiatives. This includes supporting overall process improvements, optimization of current tools, and systems implementation by collaborating with Sales, Marketing, Business Development, Customer Success, Customer Support, and Customer Experience etc. functions. We will also identify current process gaps, and help drive road maps to bridge those gaps.

There is a lot of opportunity for better process design across pre-sales and post-sales teams. Today, the teams rely on different business processes and tech stacks to operate. This leads to disconnected GTM stakeholders, not only in terms of operational inefficiencies but also data gaps, which ultimately impacts the customer experience. One of Twilio’s values is to be customer centric and to wear the customers’ shoes; this function will help drive that through improving business processes and deliver measurable operational efficiencies across our GTM organization.

Twilio is truly unique; we are a company committed to your growth, your learning, your development and your entire employee experience.  We only win when our employees succeed and we're dedicated to helping you develop your strengths. We invest in weeks dedicated to tackling hard problems and creating your own ideas. We have a cultural foundation built on diversity, inclusion and innovation and we want you and your ideas to thrive at Twilio. Come join us.  

Where?

This position will be located in our beautiful office at 375 Beale Street in San Francisco. You will enjoy our incredible perks: catered meals, snacks, game room, ergonomic desks, massages, Wednesday Night dinners, bi-weekly All Hands and more. What you will also get to experience is a company that believes in small teams for maximum impact; that strives to balance work and home life, that understands that this is a marathon, not a sprint; that continuously and purposefully builds an inclusive culture where everyone is able to do and be the best version of themselves. We seek people who naturally demonstrate our values, who are challenged by problems, empower others to thrive, people who can draw the owl and not be beholden to one playbook.
