About CodeRabbit

CodeRabbit is the governance and control layer for agentic software development, helping engineering teams trust the code they ship. AI can generate code faster than people can review and understand it. Teams still need to know whether each change solves the right problem, fits their architecture, and is safe to ship.

We provide independent validation grounded in codebase context and team standards, giving people the evidence they need to judge what should ship. Across Review, Triage, Explain, and Secure, our platform challenges changes before merge, prioritizes pull requests by value, impact, and risk, explains what changed and why it matters, and monitors the codebase for security vulnerabilities after merge.

CodeRabbit serves nearly 20,000 customers and supports approximately 300,000 open-source repositories, performing over 2 million code reviews each week. Our $143M Series C, raised at a $1.5B valuation, supports further product development and international expansion.

Role Overview

Our GTM org is scaling fast: 224 people on variable comp across six payee groups today, heading toward 320 within eighteen months. We're moving to a consumption model, so our plans are evolving as fast as the business.

Today, one person runs all of the comp. You'll take over half of that and own it outright: every payment, plan document, calculator, and dispute. You'll make sure sellers get paid accurately and on time, rebuild our calculators to carry 300+ payees, and eventually lead the selection and rollout of a commissions platform.

This isn't a seat on a big team running someone else's design. It's a chance to build the function from the ground up, working directly with GTM and Finance leadership, with work that every person on a variable plan will feel.

What you will do:

• Run commissions end to end. Own the monthly and quarterly cycle from participant setup through calculation, validation, and payroll submission. Catch anomalies before payroll runs, not after.

• Resolve disputes at the root. Investigate crediting errors, quota misalignments, and payout escalations, and fix the underlying cause, not just the payment.

• Own plan administration. Issue and track comp plans across all six payee groups, operationalize SPIFFs, accelerators, and mid-cycle changes, and handle splits, draws, true-ups, prorations, and departures.

• Make comp easy to understand. Write plan documents, policies, and FAQs that sellers and managers can follow.

• Build the stack. Rebuild our spreadsheet calculators with real controls and an audit trail, keep data clean across Salesforce, the HRIS, and payroll, and put AI and automation to work on anomaly detection and reconciliation.

• Give everyone visibility. Build dashboards so sellers, managers, and Finance can see attainment and payouts without asking.

• Keep us audit-ready. Support accruals and month-end close with Finance (including ASC 340-40), and partner with RevOps, People, Payroll, and Sales and CS leadership.

In Your First Year, You'll Have:

• Taken over the full commission cycle

• Rebuilt the calculator stack to carry the full payee base without heroics

• Measurably cut dispute volume and resolution time

• Made attainment and expected payouts self-serve for sellers and managers

What You'll Bring

• 4–6 years of hands-on sales comp administration, ideally at a fast-scaling SaaS company

• Experience running a full commissions cycle independently and owning the outcome

• Fluency in quotas, OTE, accelerators, overlays, SPIFFs, crediting rules, draws, and prorations

• Advanced spreadsheet skills. You can build a complex calculator, not just run one.

• Sharp data validation instincts and Salesforce proficiency

• Clear writing that works for a frustrated rep and a VP alike

• Daily comfort with AI tools and good judgment about where automation helps

• Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to run reliable processes with minimal oversight

Bonus Points for:

• Hands-on experience configuring CaptivateIQ, Xactly, Spiff, QuotaPath, SAP Callidus, or similar

• Exposure to ASC 340-40 or audit controls

• Supporting multiple entities or non-US payees

• Standing up a comp function from scratch
