Revenue Operations Manager, Salesforce & GTM Systems

Remote - USA

Company Description

Candidly was founded in 2016 to flip the script on what it means to plan, borrow, repay, and save for college. Today, we’re the category leader with the market’s most comprehensive AI-driven student debt and savings optimization platform. We partner with hundreds of top employers, financial institutions, and retirement record keepers, positioning Candidly to serve more than 35 million Americans. 

We’re already achieving incredible results — to date, we’ve helped our users get on track to eliminate more than $1.8B in student debt and pay off their loans 175,000 years quicker — and we’re seeking movers, shakers, innovators, and problem solvers to help take our mission even further. 

Candidly is a high-growth, Series B startup, funded by leading investors including Altos Ventures, Aflac, Salesforce Ventures, UBS, Equal Opportunity Ventures, Impact Engine, Rethink Impact, Unum, and Cercano Management. Our fully remote, international team of 70 (and counting) includes alumni from Google, UBS, Twitter, Plaid, Prudential, LendingTree, Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, and more.

Job Summary

We’re looking for a hands-on Salesforce and GTM systems leader to rebuild, optimize, and scale our revenue infrastructure from the ground up. This is not a “keep-the-lights-on” admin role—it’s a strategic, high-visibility position where you’ll transform Salesforce into the operational backbone of our AI-driven go-to-market engine.

In this role, you’ll act as our primary Salesforce authority while also serving as a thought partner in vendor evaluation, systems design, and the buildout of an AI-centric GTM tech stack. In close collaboration with Marketing and Sales, you’ll ensure seamless integration across inbound and outbound tools—so every lead, campaign, and signal flows smoothly through Salesforce and into our revenue processes. You’ll own the design of clean, automated workflows that drive how we capture, score, route, and close deals, while giving leadership the clarity they need to scale a high-growth Series B company.

If you’re passionate about Salesforce, love building future-proof systems, and want to influence company-wide decisions on how we leverage AI and automation, this role is for you.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, own, and maintain Salesforce architecture (objects, fields, rules, layouts, permissions, security, compliance).
  • Build and optimize CRM logic and automation to support GTM strategy, including stage progression, lead routing, attribution, and ICP scoring.
  • Enforce sales process discipline through stage gates, locked fields, and duplicate-prevention routines.
  • Drive adoption of CRM tools and processes through training, documentation, and enablement.
  • Collaborate with Sales and Marketing to manage the full lead lifecycle (inbound → MQL → SQL → Proposal → Win) and optimize funnel conversion.
  • Ensure seamless integration of inbound campaigns, ABM programs, partner activities, and GTM systems into Salesforce.
  • Partner with leadership to design and scale the GTM tech stack, including Salesforce integrations and new revenue channels.
  • Build executive and role-specific dashboards, automate recurring reports, and deliver actionable insights to leadership.
  • Monitor and analyze funnel metrics, forecast accuracy, and revenue trends to identify gaps and recommend improvements.
  • Continuously evaluate, pilot and implement where needed emerging technologies (AI, predictive forecasting, automated outreach) to improve efficiency and scalability.

Requirements

  • 3–5+ years as a Salesforce Admin, RevOps Manager, or similar in SaaS.
  • Salesforce Administrator certification (Advanced Admin or Platform App Builder preferred).
  • Proven track record of rebuilding or optimizing Salesforce in a scaling startup.
  • Deep understanding of SaaS funnel metrics and GTM processes (MRR, CAC, LTV, churn, etc.).
  • Experience integrating Salesforce with marketing automation and ABM/intent tools.
  • Strong analytical and technical skills; proficiency with Salesforce automation, workflows, and reporting.
  • Excellent communication skills — able to translate technical builds into business impact.
  • Comfortable working cross-functionally in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
