Reporting to the GTM Planning Lead, the Central Planning Manager is responsible for translating GTM strategy into headcount capacity plans, quotas, and pipeline-generation targets that drive the right outcomes across direct and partner motions. You will be the hands-on owner of the planning models and a trusted partner to GTM and Finance leadership, balancing competitiveness, simplicity, scalability, and financial discipline. You will lead headcount capacity planning and overall target design (booking, consumption, pipegen), and partner with finance, field ops and GTM leadership to align headcount, top level targets and compute supply.Your work will directly influence revenue predictability, seller behavior, retention, and long-term growth. This is not a pure admin seat and not a blank-slate build. You inherit working capacity and target models and extend them as Fireworks scales. Consumption and hybrid commit + usage economics are core to how we sell and how our business grows. The right candidate has intimate knowledge of business models that rely on a usage-based or hybrid commercial model — not only license ARR — and can design capacity plans that meet our strategic objectives.

Applying and refining target-setting methodologies, ensuring targets are grounded in market opportunity, historical performance, and productivity expectations. Partnering with Finance, Field Ops, and GTM leadership to build and maintain models of capacity needs, ramp assumptions, productivity, and hiring requirements for annual and long-range planning, including scenario models that show the tradeoffs between headcount, pipeline, compute supply, productivity, and revenue before decisions are made, and present scenarios to the GTM Planning Lead. Maintaining planning frameworks and analytics to monitor capacity, quota attainment, and productivity and inform in-year adjustments. Own pipeline-generation (pipegen) targets by segment and team, and track pipeline coverage against them. Partner with the GPU management team so headcount, pipeline, and consumption assumptions feed the GPU demand forecast. Systems, Forecasting & Automation Build and own a native end-to-end process and tooling for automation of business plan modeling. Partner with Data Engineering and GTM Engineering on source-of-truth data (CRM, billing/usage, roster/quotas) so calculations are reproducible and auditable.
