Summary

Revenue Operations roles are evolving as go-to-market motions grow more complex and expectations continue to expand. In this RevGenius-hosted roundtable, RevOps leaders discuss how teams are moving beyond alignment toward orchestration across people, data, and systems.
The conversation features Mike Madsen, Head of Revenue Operations at LeanData; Alana Ballon, VP of Revenue Operations at Sprout Social; and Christine Maxey, Director of Revenue Operations at Groq. Together, they share candid perspectives on role expansion, the rise of GTM engineering, the realities of AI adoption, and why foundational RevOps work still matters.

Alignment focuses on shared definitions and dashboards, while orchestration focuses on execution across systems and teams at scale.

How are RevOps roles evolving today?

RevOps roles are expanding from systems management into orchestration, strategy, and cross-functional execution.

What is a GTM engineer?

A GTM engineer is an emerging RevOps skill set focused on designing and orchestrating workflows rather than executing manual tasks.

Where does AI fit into modern RevOps?

AI can support automation and insight, but effective RevOps still depends on strong data foundations and human judgment.
