About the Team

Business Systems sits within Finance and powers how Aurora goes to market, sells, bills, and recognizes revenue. The team covers RevOps systems, usage and billing, and marketing operations. Together they support everything from first lead to cash collected for both sales-led and self-serve customers. We partner closely with Accounts Receivable, FP&A, Deal Desk, Sales, Marketing, Data Analytics and Product teams to ensure our systems evolve alongside the ways Aurora sells and monetizes its offerings. We’re building a scalable, well-documented stack that can support new products, pricing models, and geographies as Aurora grows.

You’ll lead a small, experienced team and own how HubSpot, Salesforce, Continuous, Zuora, NetSuite, and the broader commercial technology stack work together to support our business.

In this hands-on leadership role, you’ll define the systems architecture and roadmap, partnering closely with leaders across Finance, Sales, Marketing, Operations, and Product to align on priorities.

  • Serve as a strategic partner to Finance and GTM leaders.

  • Simplify the technology stack and reduce costs by consolidating platforms and retiring tools we’ve outgrown.

  • Own systems governance, vendor relationships, and the team’s budget, including SOX-ready controls and practical applications of AI.

What You Bring

  • 12+ years of experience in business systems, revenue operations systems, or finance systems, including 4+ years leading teams.

  • A strong understanding of quote-to-cash and order-to-revenue processes in a B2B SaaS business, including usage-based or hybrid pricing.

  • A track record of leading system and billing implementations, migrations, integrations, or re-architectures from requirements definition through rollout.

  • Experience managing change management and release processes, including environment management, testing, and disciplined deployment practices.

  • Experience establishing data governance and hygiene standards across CRM, billing, and ERP systems.

  • The ability to explain technical trade-offs to Finance and GTM executives in clear, accessible language.

  • Experience establishing intake, sprint, or backlog practices for a systems team.
