About the role

As the Small and Medium Business (SMB) Performance and Sales Engines Lead for Data-Driven Sales Engines and Performance, you will lead the design, governance, and commercialization of customer targeting intelligence and dynamic sales engines across Google Cloud’s SMB segment. Operating at the intersection of business acceleration and field strategy, you will own the evolution of multi-source propensity models and external market signals, translating first-party consumption data, firmographics, and buyer intent into high-yield sales plays and actionable seller workflows.

In this role, you will bridge the gap between technical data science/engineering and sales execution. Partnering with cross-functional leaders in Strategy and Operations, Business Intelligence, Sales Systems and Tooling, Change Management, and SMB sales teams, you will optimize sales workflows, increase seller profitability at scale, and establish measurement frameworks to track win-rate lifts, seller adoption, pipeline conversion, and consumption growth.

Google Customer Solutions (GCS) sales teams are trusted advisors and competitive sellers who maintain a relentless focus on customer success by bringing the best Google has to offer to small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). As a member of this team, you’ll work with company owners and help them grow their businesses.

Requirements

• 6 years of experience in go-to-market strategy, sales operations, strategy and operations, data analytics, or management consulting.

• Experience working with sales targeting models, propensity-based prioritization, and scaling GTM performance metrics (e.g., tracking win-rate lifts, campaign conversion, or new logo acquisition).
• Excellent relationship-building skills with sales leaders, product practice managers, and cross-functional stakeholders (e.g., BI, sales operations, tooling and systems teams).
• Track record of high productivity and execution under tight deadlines, with a willingness to test assumptions, take direct ownership, and drive business outcomes.
