What you’ll do

Build for scale

Define how Professional Services operates at Proton. Create and refine playbooks, processes, and tooling. Identify bottlenecks and put durable solutions in place. Partner closely with Sales, Customer Success, Product, and Engineering to improve handoffs and execution.

Own delivery

Oversee onboarding and implementation projects from kickoff through go live. Stay close to complex integrations and engineering tradeoffs. Act as the escalation point when scope, timelines, or technical decisions need clarity. Ensure customers reach value quickly and confidently.

Lead the team

Manage 3 Project Managers and 4 Implementation Engineers. Run 1:1s and team meetings. Coach both technical and non-technical team members. Set a high bar and help people grow.

About Proton.ai

Distribution is an $8 trillion industry that technology forgot. 75,000+ distributors globally. Half of their sales reps still don't use a CRM. The ones that do are stuck with generic tools built for tech companies—not businesses managing millions of SKUs and thousands of customer relationships.

We're building the industry cloud for distribution—and every product is AI-native from the ground up. We started with AI-powered CRM. Now we're expanding: our second product is live and growing fast, another product launches in March, with more on the roadmap. We're not bolting AI onto legacy software. We're rebuilding the entire stack with AI at the core. Our vision is to become the operating system for how distributors run their business.

This is a rare opportunity: a massive underserved market, strong product-market fit (120%+ NDR, 93% logo retention), and we're just getting started on the multi-product journey.

$20M Series A from Felicis (Canva, Notion, Shopify) and Battery Ventures.

Team of 70. Cambridge HQ. We’re all in the office Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.
