Luxury Presence is building the AI growth platform for real estate. Backed by Bessemer Venture Partners and other top investors, we're a Series C company on track to hit $100M in annual recurring revenue in the next six months. More than 87,000 real estate professionals, including over 30% of the WSJ Real Trends top 100 agents in the United States, use us to run and grow their business.

We’re looking for a Compensation Lead to own and evolve how we reward performance across Luxury Presence. This isn’t a back-office role that processes payroll. You’ll be the owner of our commission management platform, the day-to-day administrator who keeps it running, and the strategic thought partner to our go-to-market teams—designing and optimizing variable compensation plans that drive the right behaviors, align with business goals, and scale as we grow.

Reporting to the Head of Finance, you’ll work cross-functionally with Sales, Customer Success, and Leadership to build, maintain, and continuously improve our commission structures, bonus programs, and incentive plans. You’ll own the administration of our commission management software (think QuotaPath, CaptivateIQ, or similar), ensuring reps have real-time visibility into their earnings and that calculations are automated, accurate, and auditable. You’ll assess ROI, identify what’s working and what isn’t, and make data-driven recommendations that directly impact company performance.

This role also touches broader compensation philosophy, including equity programs and people analytics. You’ll help us think through total rewards strategy as we continue to scale. The platform handles the calculations; your job is to decide what to calculate, whether it’s working, and how to make it better. If you’re energized by building compensation systems that motivate teams and drive results, and you want to do it at a fast-moving company where your work has direct impact, this is the role for you.
