Business Operations Associate, AI & Automation
$90,000–$130,000 year
On-siteSan Francisco, California, United States
Job Summary
Partner with RevOps to automate manual comp processes using AI agents, scripts, and workflows. Support monthly and quarterly compensation cycles by pulling data, reconciling discrepancies, and tracking target-setting approvals. Maintain forecast roll-ups and pipeline dashboards while assisting with new-hire guarantees and crediting exceptions. Draft queries with AI assistance to draft queries and sanity-check outputs against source data. Coordinate directly with sales leaders, Finance, and Legal to ensure precision in pay calculations. Bring a fresh eye to team processes, pitching specific, scoped improvements as you learn the function.
Required Qualifications
- Comfortable using AI tools daily (Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, n8n, Replit, or similar), and genuinely excited to get better at directing them to do real work
- A builder's instinct — when you see a manual, repetitive process, your first thought is 'how do I automate this,' not just 'how do I do this faster'
- 0–3 years of experience in an analytical, operational, or cross-functional business role (revenue operations, sales operations, finance, business/product operations, or similar) — new grads with strong internship experience welcome
- Willingness to learn SQL well enough to draft queries with AI assistance and sanity-check the output against source data — you don't need to arrive fluent
- Strong Excel/Sheets skills and comfort with ambiguous, spreadsheet-heavy problems
- High attention to detail — this role touches people's paychecks, and precision matters
- Clear, professional communication — you'll coordinate directly with sales leaders, Finance, and Legal, and need to hold your own in those conversations
Desired Qualifications
- Traditional RevOps experience is a plus, not a prerequisite
- Coursework or project experience with SQL, dbt, or BI tools (Mode, Looker, Tableau)
- Exposure to Salesforce or another CRM — this isn't a CRM-admin role, and we'd rather teach Salesforce to a strong builder than teach the automation instinct to a CRM specialist
- A personal project, class project, or internship where you built a script, automation, or tool that saved someone time
- Interest in sales compensation, forecasting, or GTM strategy as a career path
