About the role
- About ClickHouse Recognized on the 2025 Forbes Cloud 100 list, ClickHouse is one of the most innovative and fast-growing private cloud companies.
- The company's sustained, accelerating momentum was recently validated by a $400M Series D financing round.
- The same discipline applies to new products: the commercial infrastructure that makes them sellable has to be built before they ship.
Responsibilities
- Run pricing analysis, model the commercial impact of changes, and lead pricing reviews and pricing changes from analysis through rollout.
- Own commercial architecture: pricing operationalization, discount governance, approval logic, and the rules and guardrails that govern how deals get structured and closed.
- Design and operate the commercial review function: rules, approval logic, automated controls, and the exception review process for the deal flow that doesn't fit them.
- Partner with Sales and Finance on the non-standard cases that genuinely warrant human judgment.
- Build out Q2C and CPQ automation. Drive the platform roadmap with Revenue Engineering.
- Own marketplace operations across AWS, GCP, and Azure: CSP transactions, private offers, co-sell motions, and the operational mechanics behind partner-sourced and partner-influenced revenue.
- Own commercial readiness for new product introduction.
- Build the commercial infrastructure that makes a new product sellable before it ships: the pricing and packaging, the quoting logic, the discount and approval rules, and the controls that govern how the product gets sold.
- Program-manage the cross-functional path to launch across Product, Finance, Legal, and Revenue Engineering: define the commercial requirements, drive the build, test the end-to-end flow, and own the go-live readiness so the product is sellable on day one.
- Hire and develop the Commercial Strategy & Operations team. Design the systems and review logic that let a small team govern an increasing volume of deal flow as the business scales.
Requirements
- SQL fluency required.
- Strong working knowledge of Salesforce CPQ.
- Comfort designing rules, approval logic, and automated controls, not just configuring tools.
- 10+ years in pricing strategy, commercial operations, revenue strategy, or product-led growth strategy, with at least five years managing a team.
- You can hold a cross-functional program to a launch date across Product, Finance, Legal, and Engineering, and you measure readiness by whether the flow works end-to-end, not by whether the pieces exist.
- Familiarity with the operational complexity of usage-based contracts: metering, commits, contract structure, overages, and the rev rec implications.
- If you have any questions or comments about compensation as a candidate, please get in touch with us at paytransparency@clickhouse.com.
