CaptivateIQ is transforming the way companies plan, manage, and optimize sales performance. We started by revolutionizing incentive compensation management, and now we're expanding our platform to solve broader sales planning challenges. Recognized by industry analysts like Forrester and G2 and backed by top-tier investors, including Sequoia, ICONIQ, Accel, and Sapphire Ventures, we empower high-growth companies like Netflix, Figma, and Stripe with the flexibility and insights needed to drive revenue performance.
Join a talented, fast-growing team committed to solving some of the most complex and impactful problems in sales performance management.
About the Role
CaptivateIQ's Professional Services team partners with customers after the deal closes to bring their sales compensation programs to life inside CaptivateIQ — from business requirements and comp plan design through data structure, build-out, UAT, and go-live, before handing off to Customer Success.
We're hiring a Senior Professional Services Consultant to join a growing team leading these implementations end-to-end. This is a client-facing role: you'll move fluidly between customer meetings and hands-on build work, owning the project timeline while managing customer expectations along the way. It's a strong fit for someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys solving complex compensation problems, and wants the pace and ownership of a fast-moving, startup environment.
What You'll Do
-
Lead full-cycle CaptivateIQ implementations for customers — from business requirements documentation and comp plan design through data structure, build-out, configuration, UAT, and go-live.
Design system configurations that maximize modeling efficiency and repeatability for each customer's comp plan.
Own project timelines, prioritizing your own work and setting expectations with customers and internal stakeholders across multiple concurrent implementations.
Serve as the primary client-facing point of contact throughout the implementation, building trust with customer admin teams.
Scope new implementation or post-implementation services and support related negotiations as needed.
Lead the handoff to Customer Success at go-live, ensuring a clean transition across cross-functional teams.
Become an expert in CaptivateIQ and in sales commission structures, applying best-practice calculation design across a range of plan types.
Collaborate with Product Managers, Customer Success Managers, and Sales throughout the engagement.
Proactively identify and escalate project or account risks before they impact the customer or the timeline.
Maintain billable utilization against your target, balancing active implementation work with team commitments and initiatives that drive broader organizational impact.
Proactively define and adopt team best practices that raise the bar for delivery quality.
What You'll Bring
-
Background in sales compensation — as a consultant, or as an administrator/practitioner using a comp tool in-house.
6+ years of experience as a consultant or implementation professional, with demonstrated project leadership (managing other consultants is not required).
Strong grasp of data modeling, formulas, and spreadsheet/database tools (Excel or similar); comfort with object-oriented and relational data concepts.
Excellent time management — able to move seamlessly between client meetings and hands-on build work, prioritizing across multiple engagements.
Friendly, obsessively customer-focused, and service-oriented, with strong problem-solving instincts.
Strong communication, analytical, and collaboration skills; comfortable working independently while knowing when to seek guidance.
A startup mindset — comfortable with ambiguity in a fast-changing environment, with a clear sense of why that environment is the right fit for you.
Background at a SaaS/technology company.
Nice to Have
SQL experience.
Experience with AI implementation.
Experience with CaptivateIQ or a competitor's sales compensation software (e.g., Xactly, Varicent, SAP Commissions).
Proficiency with CRMs (e.g., Salesforce) or ERPs (e.g., NetSuite).
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.

Tips for Your Remote Professional Services Engineer Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote professional services engineer openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your skills and apply directly without sifting through mixed location listings on general job sites.
Prove async communication in your application
Remote professional services teams rely on written handoffs, Slack threads, and ticketing systems rather than in-person check-ins. Your cover letter and resume should show concrete examples of async client communication, technical documentation you've authored, or distributed project coordination you've led.
Demonstrate remote implementation work concretely
Build a portfolio or case study showing an end-to-end remote implementation you drove, including the tools used, how you coordinated across time zones, and the outcome. Remote employers want evidence you can deliver results without physical presence on a client site.
Target remote-first companies in your sector
Remote-first software vendors and cloud platform companies have infrastructure and management practices built around distributed teams, making them far more comfortable hiring remote professional services engineers than traditional enterprises retrofitting remote work.
Remote Professional Services Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote professional services engineer job?
Focus your search on remote-first software companies, cloud platform vendors, and enterprise SaaS providers, where distributed professional services teams are the norm rather than the exception. Remote employers screen heavily for self-direction, clear written communication, and the ability to manage client implementations without in-person oversight. Demonstrating experience with async collaboration tools, technical documentation, and independent problem-solving gives you a concrete edge over candidates without remote work history.
Which companies hire remote professional services engineers?
Remote professional services engineer roles are posted by GitLab, Axon, and GitLab and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These tend to be remote-first software vendors, cloud infrastructure providers, and distributed enterprise technology teams where professional services delivery happens entirely online.
Can you get a remote professional services engineer job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level professional services engineer roles are harder to land because you're expected to troubleshoot independently from day one without in-person support. Remote-first SaaS startups and smaller technology vendors are the most likely to hire junior candidates. Showing self-taught implementation projects, technical certifications, or documented contributions to open-source deployments can substitute for direct employer experience and open doors to remote roles.
Do you need a degree for remote professional services engineer jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers care more about demonstrated implementation skills, platform certifications, and a history of delivering technical projects than about a specific credential. Certifications from major cloud and software platforms, combined with a portfolio showing real client-facing or integration work, carry significant weight with remote hiring teams evaluating professional services candidates.
Which industries hire the most remote professional services engineers?
Remote professional services engineer roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Non-Profit & Social Services, and Insurance, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors run distributed product and delivery teams that depend on remote professional services engineers to onboard clients, manage implementations, and support integrations without requiring on-site presence.
