  • Cross-Functional Leadership : Partner with Marketing, GTM Analytics, Business Systems, Data Engineering, and Finance to design and deliver end-to-end GTM processes.
  • Embrace AI : Leverage AI to build a scalable, next-gen RevOps function and contribute to Intercom’s overall vision of an AI-first customer engagement model.
