About Ramp Ramp is building the smart infrastructure for finance teams, embedded in the transaction flow of every dollar a business spends. We automate how over $200B in annualized spend flows in and out of 70,000+ companies: authorizing payments, flagging risk, categorizing spend, and closing books. The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving. We hire people with high agency and high urgency. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you’ve built. At Ramp, everyone is a builder who owns problems end to end and makes consequential decisions that shape the outcome. The median Ramp customer saves 5% and grows revenue 16% in their first year – far in excess of businesses operating without Ramp. We believe every ambitious company deserves the same. If you want to build systems that directly shape how companies move and manage billions, Ramp is the place to do it. About the Role Ramp is hiring a Director of Technical Consulting to lead the post-sales Technical Consultant (TC) organization. This leader will own how Ramp helps complex customers move from signed deal to successful activation, with particular focus on technical implementation, integrations, and the operating model that allows the team to scale. You will lead a growing organization of Technical Consultants and frontline managers, partnering closely with Customer Success, Account Management, Product, and Engineering. TCs are the technical counterpart in Ramp’s post-sales motion: they help customers navigate integration and implementation complexity, translate customer requirements into clear technical paths, and bring the right internal teams together when a solution needs to scale. This is not a traditional pre-sales Solutions Consulting role, and it is not a pure professional-services model. We are looking for a leader who can combine technical implementation judgment with strong people leadership, operational rigor, and the ability to build dura

Replit is the agentic software creation platform that enables anyone to build applications using natural language. With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation. About the Role Replit is investing seriously in paid media — TV, CTV, online video, out-of-home, audio, social, and search — and we need the person who makes that investment work. This role is the internal owner of our media program: you'll direct our external media agencies, pressure-test their plans, steward the budget, and hold every dollar accountable for reaching the right audiences on the right channels at the right time. You'll report to the VP of Marketing and act as the connective tissue between our brand and growth teams and our agency partners. This is not a hands-on-keyboard activation role. You won't be living in Ads Manager — you'll be the person who briefs the agency, challenges the channel mix, catches the pacing problem before it becomes a budget problem, and translates campaign performance into decisions leadership can act on. This is the right role if you've sat on the brand side (or want to move there from a media agency), you know what a great media plan looks like and what a lazy one looks like, and you get energy from being the sharpest media mind in the room without needing to touch the platforms yourself. What You'll Do Agency leadership: Serve as the primary day-to-day partner to our media agencies. Set strategy direction, write clear briefs, run planning cycles and QBRs, and hold partners accountable for performance, optimization, quality, and business results. Plan interrogation: Review and challenge agency recommendations across every channel — TV, CTV, OLV, OOH, audio, social, search, programmatic. Catch weak rationale, frequency saturation risks, and budget misallocations before plans get approved. Budget stewardship: Own media budget pacing, forecasting, authorizations, and reconciliatio
