[Hiring] Deal Desk Manager @Amplitude

Role Description

Amplitude is building the operating system for digital product innovation—and our Deal Desk team sits right at the center of how we monetize that vision. This team partners deeply with Sales, Finance, Legal, and Revenue Accounting to structure smart, scalable deals that accelerate growth without introducing risk.

As a Deal Desk Manager, you’ll act as a strategic advisor on our most important and complex opportunities. You’ll help shape deal strategy, guide pricing and contract decisions, and bring clarity to ambiguity—all while keeping the business moving fast. This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments and likes being where decisions actually get made.

This role is remote, with a preference for candidates based in the Eastern Time Zone to enable consistent collaboration with EMEA stakeholders when needed.

• Own deal strategy for complex opportunities by advising Sales on pricing, packaging, contract terms, and negotiation strategy—especially for enterprise and non-standard deals.
• Drive deal execution end-to-end by reviewing and approving non-standard transactions within SLA while ensuring all approvals are obtained and aligned with revenue recognition, legal, and operational policies.
• Act as the connective tissue across teams (Sales, Legal, Finance, RevOps, Accounting) to align on deal structure, mitigate risk, and remove blockers quickly.
• Partner on non-standard deal structures to balance business impact with compliance, including revenue recognition and contractual considerations.
• Identify and scale better ways of working by improving the Quote to Order process, leveraging AI tools, codifying best practices, and enabling the Sales team to move faster and smarter.

Qualifications

• You thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and are energized by complex, high-stakes deals that require creative thinking and sound judgment.
• You build trust with Sales by being a valued partner—creative, collaborative, and solution-oriented—while still holding the line when it matters.
• You’re energized by cross-functional collaboration and know how to drive alignment across strong personalities and competing priorities.
• You have a sharp eye for risk and detail, but don’t lose sight of the bigger picture.
• You're a clear, thoughtful communicator with strong critical thinking skills and a constant drive to improve systems, processes, and how teams work together.
