Companies including Canva, Meta, Mistral AI, and NVIDIA rely on Buildkite to run builds, tests, and deployments on their infrastructure, ours, or both - giving them the speed, reliability, and flexibility to ship with confidence.\nAbout the Role\nWe're looking for a Sales Enablement Lead to own how Buildkite develops, equips, and scales its go-to-market team. This is a senior individual contributor role: you'll set the enablement strategy, build the systems and content that run underneath it, and operate with full autonomy across Sales, Marketing, and Product to raise how our sellers ramp, sell, and win. This role reports directly into the CRO. \nThis is a step up from running programs to owning the function. You'll decide what enablement Buildkite needs over the next 12 months, design it so it scales without you in the room, and connect every program to pipeline and revenue rather than activity. You'll be the person Sales leadership comes to when they need to move a number, and someone the wider GTM team looks to for how enablement is done well.\nWe're looking for someone who has built enablement or GTM systems before, can point to the revenue outcomes they moved, and has the judgment to work through ambiguity without waiting to be told what to prioritize. \nWhere You’ll Be \nThis role is remote-first and US-based. You'll need to be located in the Pacific time zone, or within one hour of it, so your working hours overlap with our stakeholders and teams in Australia.\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn the enablement strategy\nSet the enablement strategy end-to-end and align it to Buildkite's revenue goals and GTM priorities\nDecide what to build, what to retire, and where to focus, using pipeline data, field insight, and close partnership with Sales leadership\nAnticipate what the GTM team will need as Buildkite scales, and get ahead of it rather than reacting to requests\nBring clarity to ambiguous, cross-functional problems and translate them into programs people actually adopt\nBuild systems that scale\nDesign and own a scalable enablement system - onboarding, ongoing skills development, content architecture, and tooling - that holds up as the team grows\nBuild a content and playbook library that stays current with product positioning and the competitive landscape, and is easy for sellers to find and use in the moment\nCreate the operating rhythm (certification, reinforcement, measurement) that turns training into lasting behavior change, not one-off sessions\nImprove the systems and tools the wider GTM team relies on, reducing friction and manual effort\nDrive measurable GTM impact\nOwn enablement outcomes and connect program activity to ramp time, seller performance, pipeline, and revenue\nLead the enablement rollout of new products, messaging, and GTM motions end-to-end, coordinating across functions to land them\nDefine what “good” looks like for seller capability at each stage of the cycle, and measure against it\nBalance speed, quality, and impact - ship enablement that's useful now while building toward the long term\nRaise the bar and uplift others\nSet the standard for enablement craft at Buildkite and role model it in your own work\nCoach and upskill Account Executives, and share expertise with Sales managers so good practice sticks beyond any single program\nBring the field's perspective back to Marketing, Product, and Brand to influence how Buildkite builds and positions itself externally\nContribute to a psychologically safe, inclusive culture where feedback and experimentation are the norm\nThis Is You If...\nYou've spent 6+ years in sales enablement, sales training, or a senior GTM role within B2B SaaS or technical software, and you've owned enablement strategy or systems end to end\nYou design enablement as scalable systems, not a series of sessions - you've built the content architecture, tooling, and operating rhythms that let a GTM team keep improving without you in the middle of everything\nYou can take a messy, cross-functional problem and drive it to a reliable outcome with minimal oversight, setting your own priorities against business goals\nYou connect enablement to revenue, measure what matters, and steer clear of vanity metrics - and you can point to the numbers you've moved\nYou build trust quickly with Sales leadership and senior stakeholders, and bring people with you through clarity rather than authority\nYou facilitate with credibility, write crisp content, and adapt for audiences from new AEs to enterprise sellers\nYou coach, mentor, and raise the standard around you, growing capability across the team\nYou seek feedback, challenge the status quo with curiosity, and keep raising the bar through the quality of your work\nBenefits\n20 days paid annual leave plus 10 days sick & carer's leave - actively encouraged, we want you to be at your best and time off is a part of that.\nAn ongoing remote-work allowance to help you do your best work - we want you to have everything you need, from great wifi to wellness options that are right for you.\nRetirement and health coverage (based on your region) - build towards your future, your way.\n 16 weeks paid parental leave for primary carers (6 weeks for secondary) - becoming a parent is life changing and we’re committed to supporting you and your family through it.\nConfidential EAP & mental health support - sometimes life gets hard. You should be able to access the resources and support you need.\nSupport for learning and growth - with time and budget for conferences, courses, and coaching so you have the opportunity to grow, improve your craft, and build mastery.\nFlexibility to work from anywhere in the world for up to 6 weeks a year - great work doesn’t have to happen from one desk.\nExact benefits may vary slightly by country. We'll walk through the specifics for your location.\nCompensation\nThe base salary range is $150,000 - $165,000 USD. Compensation is determined based on geographic location, relevant experience, and qualifications.\nEqual Opportunity Employer\nAt Buildkite, we value diversity and celebrate all types of skills, backgrounds, and experiences. We’re dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment and providing reasonable accommodations throughout our recruitment process.\nIf you need any accommodations or support during the application or interview process, please reach out to us at .","description_format":"text","description_chars":6526,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Annual leave","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"},{"name":"Australia","iso":"AU","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["DevOps & Platform Engineering","Developer Tools"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-08T21:21:31Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":73,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.813,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":49,"expected_fill_days":98,"reasons":["conf:3","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-10-28T05:59:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/buildkite-sales-enablement-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/buildkite-sales-enablement-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-28T20:09:03Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":27902,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":19765},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=19765"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fbuildkite-sales-enablement-lead"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fbuildkite-sales-enablement-lead"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fbuildkite-sales-enablement-lead"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/buildkite-sales-enablement-lead\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fbuildkite-sales-enablement-lead"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":555785}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"buildkite.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":555785},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
