About the role

Shiftlab Job Opportunity Shiftlab is a fast-growing, AI-driven workforce management platform. Over 30,000 retail professionals already rely on us for scheduling, time and attendance, team communication, and real-time performance visibility — the everyday tools that make running an hourly workforce simpler for operators and better for the people on the floor. We're a fully remote company built on trust, ownership, and collaboration. Our mission is to elevate human potential, and for us that starts on the frontline: less time lost to manual scheduling and paperwork, more visibility and control for the people actually running the stores.

About The Role: This is a strategic, client- and prospect-facing role. We're looking for someone who can own enterprise client relationships and help close deals. You'll sit with sales and marketing as a credible expert voice in the room with prospects, lead demos for enterprise accounts, and give Product a seat-at-the-table view of what enterprise HR buyers actually need. This is a remote opportunity. Our preferred locations are: Regina, Vancouver, Toronto, Denver, Davidson/Charlotte. The #1 filter for this role (note for HR) Above everything else, we're looking for a closer — someone you can put in a boardroom with a prospect and trust to help win the deal. Domain depth matters here because it wins deals, not for its own sake.

What You'll Do:

Sales engineering & deal closing
Sit directly with sales as a credible expert voice in the room — this is a lead role in prospect and client conversations, not a back-seat supporting one
Lead product demos for enterprise prospects, tailoring each pitch to that vertical's specificHR and operational pain points
Help build and run a go-to-market strategy for specialty retail
Partner with marketing on positioning, messaging, and collateral for new target verticals
Domain expertise in the room
Bring the human side of the conversation — speak credibly to the real operational and people impact HR/workforce systems have on both the business and its frontline staff
Speak knowledgeably to the compliance complexity around hourly workforce management — labor law, scheduling regulations, wage/hour rules — as it comes up in prospect conversations
Translate the nuance of third-party integrations — payroll systems, internal operating systems, POS systems — well enough to speak credibly to a prospect's requirements and connect the dots for our internal teams
Customer & market insight
Act as our in-house expert on HR and hourly-workforce issues in retail — bring that lens into prospect and customer conversations
Gather and synthesize feedback from prospects, customers, and industry contacts to spot unmet needs before they show up in a support ticket
Product voice
Hold a seat at the table on product roadmap decisions
Help ensure the product both innovates and checks the compliance/operational boxes enterprise HR buyers require
Work with Product to turn market and customer signals into concrete opportunity briefs — not just "customers want X," but why, and what it's worth
Identify HR and workforce management pain points specific to hourly, multi-location workforces and help Product prioritize what we build next

What You Bring:

A closer, first — proven ability to hold your own in a boardroom with a prospect and help win the deal; this is the top filter for this role, ahead of raw domain tenure 10+ years in HR, retail operations, or workforce management — ideally some combination of the three
Direct experience with hourly, frontline workforce environments at scale (retail, restaurant, or similar multi-location operations)
Enterprise experience — you've operated inside, or served, large and complex organizations
Working knowledge of the compliance landscape around hourly workforce management (labor law, scheduling regulations, wage/hour rules)
Comfortable leading client-facing conversations in a consultative, expert capacity
Conceptual (not necessarily technical) fluency with third-party integrations — payroll, POS, and internal operating systems — enough to speak credibly to a prospect's requirements and translate for internal teams
Comfort operating across sales, customer-facing, and product work — this isn't a role for someone who wants a single lane
Experience giving product demos or leading prospect-facing conversations
A track record of turning an operational or HR pain point into a clear business case or product requirement
Strong written and verbal communication — you'll be translating between sales, CS, and product regularly
Self-starter who's comfortable building a go-to-market motion in a new vertical largely from scratch

Nice to have:

Hands-on technical aptitude with integrations or systems — a genuine asset if you have it, but not something we screen for
Experience in specialty retail categories beyond telecom — apparel, jewelry, beauty, or other regulated or hourly-heavy retail
Background with HRIS, payroll, or workforce management software
Prior experience at an early-stage SaaS company

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
