Netradyne harnesses the power of Computer Vision and Edge Computing to revolutionize the modern-day transportation ecosystem. We are a leader in fleet safety solutions. With growth exceeding 4x year over year, our solution is quickly being recognized as a significant disruptive technology. Our team is growing, and we need forward-thinking, uncompromising, competitive team members to continue to facilitate our growth. The Manager, Deal Desk owns deal pricing, renewal pricing, deal structuring, and deal analytics for Netradyne’s global enterprise business. This role is the commercial thought partner to Sales on how a deal should be priced and structured — balancing ARR growth, hardware and subscription margin, cash flow, contract term, and revenue recognition outcomes — and the analytical owner of how pricing and discounting perform in market. Netradyne sells an AI-powered, hardware-enabled SaaS platform, so the role requires fluency in bundled device and subscription economics, multi-year total cost of ownership, and the trade-offs between upfront hardware revenue and recurring revenue. Renewal pricing is one of the core responsibilities of this role: the candidate must own uplift and escalator policy, renewal price execution, co-term and true-up mechanics, and the pricing levers that protect net revenue retention at scale. The role also owns the operating mechanics of the deal desk: quote and approval workflow, price book governance, non-standard terms, and deal desk service levels, in partnership with Sales, Finance, Legal, Product, and Business Systems. It supports strategic initiatives including the quote-to-cash process redesign, and AI-driven process automation. Reporting to the Sr. Director of Revenue Operations, this position will play a pivotal role in scaling and streamlining global deal operations, ensuring efficiency, and driving business outcomes. The ideal candidate will be comfortable operating in a high-growth, fast-paced environment and possess a blend of interpersonal and analytical skills to influence cross-functional teams.
