RevOps Lead

Job description

About Kernel Agents are starting to sell, buy and operate on behalf of companies. But before an agent can close a deal, qualify an account, route a lead or assess risk, it has to answer a basic question: which company is this? Today, that answer is messy, and no one answers it reliably. Business identity lives across CRMs, ERPs and third-party datasets full of duplicates, missing parent companies, stale addresses and incorrect enrichment. The cost shows up across the enterprise: sales teams miss revenue opportunities because they lack the right account context; operations teams take on avoidable exposure because risk signals are fragmented or wrong; and finance teams end up chasing, writing off, or defaulting on bad debt that should have been caught earlier. Humans have worked around that mess for years. Agents cannot. They need a reliable business identity layer they can trust. Kernel is building that layer: the business registry for agents. We issue a permanent Kernel ID for every business, plus the context an agent needs to act on it. Ops, data and revenue teams at Gong, Legora, Mistral, Canva and Notion already use Kernel on their own systems. Agents are next, and there will be far more of them.

You’ll report to Arvin Ashrafi, Head of Finance & Operations , and partner closely with our Finance & Operations team and GTM leadership. What You’ll Be Doing Run the revenue operating rhythm: own pipeline management, forecasting, funnel reporting, quota planning, GTM incentive compensation and the systems behind renewals and expansion - giving leadership a clear view of performance, risk and what needs attention Make the GTM team more productive:…
