Klaviyo's GTM Systems team builds and runs the systems that power marketing, sales, partnerships, customer success, and services. We're looking for a Lenior Technical Project Manager with 8+ years of experience delivering complex SaaS GTM and revenue systems programs, who understands both how the systems work and how the business runs on them, and who is excited to bring AI into how we plan, deliver, and operate.

About the team

Our GTM Systems team sits at the center of Klaviyo's GTM engine, connecting Salesforce, CPQ, billing and finance systems, customer success and support platforms, and professional services tooling. We own the roadmap that lets our teams move quickly, trust their data, and focus on helping customers grow. As we scale, we're rebuilding parts of that stack around AI and agentic workflows as the operating model, not a bolt-on experiment, and we need a program leader who can deliver that change reliably.

About the role

As Lead Technical Project Manager, you own delivery of our highest-impact, highest-complexity GTM systems programs from intake through hypercare. Think CPQ replacement, quote-to-cash changes, customer success and support platform upgrades, and AI-enabled workflows that cut across Sales, Customer Success, Services, Finance, and Internal Audit. You turn ambiguous business goals into clear plans, sequence work across many teams shipping into the same core systems, and keep leadership informed with an honest view of commitments, risks, and progress.

You'll work hands-on with business systems analysts, developers, architects, vendors, and finance and audit partners, and you'll regularly present to senior and executive leadership. You use AI yourself to run programs faster and better, and you help bring it into the way our teams work.

How you'll make an impact

  • Own program delivery end to end: intake, prioritization, scoping, sequencing, status, and operating cadence for a multi-quarter GTM systems roadmap, from discovery through launch and hypercare.
  • Lead cross-functional programs at scale: manage dependencies across Sales, Deal Desk, RevOps, Customer Success, Services, Finance, Legal, Security, and Engineering, including teams that don't report to you.
  • Drive technical decisions with engineers and architects: weigh trade-offs, build-vs-buy calls, integration patterns, and vendor evaluations, and make sure decisions are documented and defensible.
  • Deliver with controls built in: partner with Finance, Internal Audit, and Security on revenue-impacting systems work (SOX/ITGC, access, change management, audit traceability) so controls are designed in, tested, and evidenced.
  • Manage vendors and implementation partners: run joint project plans, steering committees, decision logs, and risk reviews, and hold partners to commitments.
  • Bring AI into GTM and into how we deliver: help scope and ship AI and agentic workflows into production, and use AI tooling to improve planning, status reporting, testing, and documentation.
  • Build the operating model: establish intake, planning, release management, and reporting practices that hold up as the portfolio grows, and mentor teammates on program craft.
  • Communicate with clarity: give GTM Systems, GTM, Finance, and executive leaders a crisp view of scope, timeline, cost, risk, and decisions needed, in the room and in writing.

What makes you a great fit

  • 8+ years of technical program or project management, business systems delivery, or GTM/revenue systems experience at a SaaS company, with a track record of owning large, multi-team programs end to end.
  • Deep working knowledge of GTM systems and processes: lead-to-opportunity, quote-to-cash, renewals and amendments, customer success and support, and professional services delivery, and how objects, data, and approvals flow between Salesforce, CPQ, billing/ERP, contracting, and support tools.
  • Experience delivering in a Salesforce-centric environment where multiple teams ship into a shared core system on a common release process.
  • Experience partnering with finance, audit, or compliance functions on revenue-impacting systems and controls.
  • Strong technical fluency: you can read an architecture diagram, discuss integration and data-model trade-offs with developers, and spot delivery risk early.
  • Hands-on curiosity about AI: you use LLM tools in your own work, can talk credibly about where AI and agents help GTM workflows and where they need guardrails, and want to help teams adopt them responsibly.
  • Exceptional stakeholder management and executive communication; comfortable driving outcomes through influence in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.

Nice to haves

  • Experience with CPQ implementations or replacements, quote-to-cash redesign, or billing/ERP integrations (for example NetSuite).
  • Experience with customer success, support, or services platforms (for example Gainsight, Zendesk, Certinia) and contracting tools (for example Ironclad).
  • Familiarity with SOX ITGC, revenue controls, or SOC reporting for vendor-hosted systems.
  • Experience standing up release management or CI/CD for a Salesforce org.
  • Exposure to agentic AI frameworks or MCP-based integrations in a business systems setting.
  • PMP, Salesforce, or similar certifications (or equivalent demonstrated experience).
  • Prior experience at a high-growth software or AI company.

Why this role matters at Klaviyo

  • Your programs directly affect how Klaviyo sells, bills, renews, and supports customers, with real visibility to senior GTM, Finance, and executive leadership.
  • You'll lead work that sits at the intersection of GTM systems, finance controls, and AI, a combination that is rare and increasingly valuable.
  • You'll help shape an AI-first delivery and operating model for GTM Systems, setting practices that outlast any single project.

Klaviyo Compensation & Benefits Highlights

How does Klaviyo ensure its pay and bonus plans are competitive?

Klaviyo supports competitive pay through a total rewards approach that combines salary, equity, bonus opportunities, benefits, learning support and a performance culture tied to measurable impact. 

  • Competitive total rewards: Klaviyo’s benefits overview highlights competitive salaries, 401(k) match, employee referral bonuses, equity, an employee stock purchase plan, flexible paid time off, commuter/transit support, fitness reimbursements, mental and emotional wellbeing programming and learning support. External reviews reinforce the value of the package, with employees citing competitive pay, bonuses, RSUs, ESPP, health insurance, parental leave, unlimited PTO and learning stipends as meaningful parts of the employee experience.
  • Pay connected to impact and outcomes: Klaviyo’s handbook frames performance around ownership, clarity and measurable results. The value “Know the score” states that results matter more than effort alone, while “Drivers wanted” emphasizes proactive ownership and “Be meticulous in your craft” reinforces a high bar for work quality. That creates a compensation and recognition philosophy where strong outcomes, not just activity, are central to advancement and rewards.
  • Equity and long-term value: Equity is a visible part of Klaviyo’s rewards story. Klaviyo offers equity packages to all full-time employees, vesting over four years, and provides an employee stock purchase plan. That ownership opportunity sits within a growing business: in Q1 2026, Klaviyo reported $358 million in revenue, up 28% year over year, and raised full-year 2026 revenue guidance to $1.514 billion to $1.522 billion. Those business results give employees a clear connection between company performance, long-term growth and the value of ownership-based compensation.
  • Rewards supported by growth and development benefits: Klaviyo’s compensation package is paired with benefits that help employees grow their careers and build long-term value. K-Pro Learn, learning stipends, mentorship, Career Architecture and manager development programs support continued skill-building. A customer success manager noted that Klaviyo offers a learning stipend for job-related coaching or training, while employee survey insights show 78% of respondents feel they are gaining the skills and experience to grow their careers.
  • External signals:
    • Compensation Sentiment: External reviews frequently praise Klaviyo’s competitive salary, bonuses, equity, RSUs, ESPP, 401(k) match, learning stipend and generous benefits. (Glassdoor; Comparably)
    • Rewards Ratings: Comparably rates Klaviyo’s compensation an A and perks and benefits an A. (Comparably)
    • Employee Value Signals: Reviews highlight PTO, health insurance, parental leave, office amenities, learning support and work-life balance as part of the overall rewards package. (Glassdoor; Comparably)

Bottom line: Klaviyo keeps compensation competitive by combining salary, bonus opportunities, equity, ESPP, retirement support, benefits and learning resources with a culture that rewards ownership, measurable outcomes and long-term impact.
