In this episode, we’re joined by Tina Kung, Co-Founder and CTO of Nue.io, a rising CPQ & Billing platform redefining the quote-to-cash experience for modern SaaS businesses. With a career spanning Ariba, Oracle, Zuora, Salesforce, CA Technologies, and more, Tina brings over two decades of experience building and evolving four generations of CPQ and Billing systems.

🔍 We discuss:

Her journey from on-premise software to modern SaaS

Key insights from working at Salesforce and Zuora, where cracks in the CPQ–Billing integration became clear to her

How Amazon’s B2C user experience inspired her to rethink B2B

Nue.io’s product strategy: real-time pricing, platform-agnostic architecture, and a unified data model

The importance of empathy, resilience, and communication in solving complex RevOps challenges

Why hybrid pricing models, mid-term changes, and renewals are critical in SaaS

Her vision for AI in CPQ & Billing over the next 12 months

The recent $20M Series A funding, the acquisition of Approvals Pro, and Nue.io’s plans for Dreamforce and Q3 events

Tina also shares what sets Nue.io apart from other CPQ vendors—and how their metadata-driven, Salesforce-native approach aims to eliminate handoffs between quoting and billing entirely.

🎧 Whether you're a CPQ buyer, system integrator, SaaS leader, or RevOps pro, this episode offers rare insights into the future of revenue technology.
