Do you want to build the technical backbone of a high-growth revenue engine? Do you want to architect integrations that power seamless customer experiences?

The impact you will have:

Great customer experiences are powered by great technical infrastructure. At Elliptic, we're not just connecting systems – we're building the integrations and custom applications that enable our revenue teams to operate at scale.

You'll be the technical architect behind our GTM technology stack, developing a cohesive data ecosystem that pulls together all of our commercial and customer data enabling our pricing engine, contract management, and business intelligence platforms.

This isn't just systems integration – you're building the technical infrastructure that enables Elliptic to deliver seamless experiences across the entire customer lifecycle, from first touch to renewal and expansion.

Architect the foundation our revenue organisation is built on; you'll define how we structure, store, and access customer data across the full lifecycle—from first touch to ongoing expansion—creating the foundation for data-driven commercial decisions and AI-powered automation.

This role sits at the intersection of data engineering, product architecture, and revenue operations. You'll translate complex business requirements across marketing, sales, and customer success into elegant data models that enable seamless customer experiences and powerful analytics.
