Confluent is pioneering a fundamentally new category of data infrastructure focused on data in motion. Have you ever found a new favorite series on Netflix, picked up groceries curbside at Walmart, or paid for something using Square? That’s the power of data in motion in action—giving organizations instant access to the massive amounts of data that is constantly flowing throughout their business. At Confluent, we’re building the foundational platform for this new paradigm of data infrastructure. Our cloud-native offering is designed to be the intelligent connective tissue enabling real-time data, from multiple sources, to constantly stream across the organization. With Confluent, organizations can create a central nervous system to innovate and win in a digital-first world.
We’re looking for self-motivated team members who crave a challenge and feel energized to roll up their sleeves and help realize Confluent’s enormous potential. Chart your own path and take healthy risks as we solve big problems together. We value having diverse teams and want you to grow as we grow—whether you’re just starting out in your career or managing a large team, you’ll be amazed at the magnitude of your impact.
Confluent is seeking a Learning Design Lead to help us take our GTM teams to the next level for our new Confluent Academy. You will bring a strong point of view about what learning strategies power the most high-performing GTM organizations, and you will drive transformation toward Confluent’s unique “Customer Growth” GTM model.
Confluent’s unique Customer Growth GTM model has three core pillars:
Product-led
Consumption-Oriented
Purpose-built for the Data-in-Motion journey
The next generation of software business models will be product-led and consumption-oriented. The first-generation model was the license and support model, and the next generation was a term-based subscription. Customers are increasingly choosing the product-led and consumption-oriented model, which is the de facto model for data and infrastructure offerings in the cloud. Given that data and cloud infrastructure represents the largest TAM and most significant disruption happening in enterprise software, these are the sales, marketing, and success motions to learn for talent in GTM roles.
