CKEditor

Software Development

CKSource is the creator of CKEditor, and with more than 20 years’ experience creating WYSIWYG editors, we’re the experts in rich text editing. Our flagship product, CKEditor 5, is trusted by both Fortune 500 companies and hundreds of millions of users worldwide, for its almost limitless possibilities and customizations. The latest version, CKEditor 5, was rewritten in TypeScript with a modern MVC architecture, custom data model and virtual-DOM structures, and is purpose-built for collaboration. It effortlessly works with modern tech stacks and easily handles complex implementations and edge cases. Developers have complete front- and back-end control of the editor, to easily configure, customize and control every aspect of the editor’s look, feel, and functionality. Infinite possibilities are achievable with the CKEditor WYSIWYG: collaborative tools and advanced features are individually selected, to perfectly suit your application and users. The story began in 2003 with a single open-source side project, when Brazilian developer Frederico Caldeira Knabben built a groundbreaking rich text editor, known as FCKEditor. The software rapidly became so popular in the open-source community that the project quickly expanded. CKSource was established in 2006 and has steadily grown ever since. In 2021, the company became part of Tiugo Technologies, a PSG portfolio company specializing in global, API-first developer platforms in the document and data management markets. CKSource now has over 80 employees, including more than 50 talented developers. In addition to making our market-leading software, we’re dedicated to supporting our people and building a brilliant company culture. In September 2022, CKSource was awarded the Great Place to Work® Certification™ – a global ranking based entirely on employee satisfaction.

Job description

Tiugo is the company behind CKEditor, TinyMCE, Uploadcare, and ButterCMS: developer tools that power rich content creation inside thousands of applications worldwide. Our primary audience is the builder, the developer architecting an application that needs an embedded, enterprise-grade content and AI layer, where governance, compliance, and control are not nice-to-haves but hard requirements. Behind every one of our products is a genuinely good story about solving exactly that problem well. Most of the world hasn't heard it yet. 

The person we’re looking for

We’re looking to build and scale a world-class business development team that fuels commercial growth across Tiugo’s product portfolio: CKEditor, TinyMCE, UploadCare, and ButterCMS. To accomplish this, we need a leader who can build and own a system that orchestrates effective outreach to our ICP across various stages of the buyer’s journey. 

We need a systems level thinker with a high bar for excellence that translates across people, processes, and technology, all in service of driving more product adoption and high-quality conversations with our sales teams. 

If the thought of building and leading a world-class team of high-performing sales development reps excites you (with best-in-class tools and outreach experiences) this job is for you. 

You will need to be passionate about sales, effective and empathetic leadership, and systems building to truly thrive in this role. 

Where you sit

This is a functional leadership role reporting into Growth Marketing, on a team that owns pipeline and ACV as its scoreboard. You are the owner of all things business development, managing a team of reps in effort to drive pipeline and ACV. 

What you’ll do

  • Own the business development system, putting in place the people, processes, and technology to drive high-quality pipeline to help Tiugo achieve aggressive growth targets. 

  • Drive high-quality conversations and product adoption across our portfolio of brands. 

  • Orchestrate the outbound system, driving targeted awareness to our ICP and turning meaningful signals into high-quality conversations for our sales team. 

  • Maximize the commercial value of our ICP users who don’t yet use our professional products, with laser targeted, value-add communication. 

  • Build and lead a truly world-class team of dynamic sales development reps who are passionate about a future in sales. 

  • Partner with global product leaders, marketers, and builders to architect effective outreach that feels credible and human. 

Key Skills and Experience

  • 5+ years of leading business development efforts/reps at a technology company. 

  • Proven track record of generating high-quality conversations with senior decision makers and leaders. 

  • A genuinely high bar for what excellent sales systems and outreach looks like. 

  • Ability to think in and build systems that efficiently result in hitting or exceeding our growth targets. 

  • Passion for coaching, mentoring, and sales stewardship. 

  • A track record of proven excellence in sales spanning individual contributions and leadership.
