What is The Role
As a Senior Application Engineer on our IT Team, you'll be instrumental in developing and implementing solutions that help us meet our business objectives with Xactly. We’re seeking a candidate who possesses strong technical expertise and enjoys working collaboratively, contributing to a culture of continuous improvement and innovation. If you're excited about making a real impact in a team-oriented setting, this could be the right fit for you.
What You Will Be Doing:
  • Build, maintain, and optimize Connect integration pipelines between source systems and Xactly.
  • Partner with non-technical stakeholders (comp analysts, finance ops), Sales Compensation, Accounting, Sales, and IT to define data requirements.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve data quality issues, failed Connect jobs, data mismatches, and pipeline errors before commission runs.
  • Document pipeline configurations, field mappings, and transformation logic so the next developer doesn't have to reverse-engineer it.
What You Bring
  • 5+ years of hands-on Xactly Connect experience, specifically with data pipelines, transformations, and scheduling.
  • Proficiency in Xactly Extend and Xactly CEA.
  • Strong SQL skills for writing, optimizing, and troubleshooting queries, alongside familiarity with ETL concepts and flat-file/SFTP data exchange patterns.
  • Experience with source system integrations such as SFDC, Workday, NetSuite, or similar CRM/HCM/ERP platforms.
  • Strong attention to detail, recognizing that errors in comp data have a direct pay impact.
  • Nice to Have: Xactly certification(s), knowledge of ICM/SPM processes (quota, territory, crediting, payment cycles), scripting experience (Python, PowerShell, or shell) for Connect job automation, and familiarity with data warehousing or BI tools (Snowflake, Tableau, etc.).
