You will build reliable systems that operate independently while ensuring their outputs remain accurate, measurable, and trustworthy. You’ll work closely with marketing stakeholders to translate operational challenges into scalable technical solutions. The environment is fast-moving, distributed, and highly autonomous, with significant ownership over consequential marketing infrastructure. This opportunity is ideal for someone who enjoys solving ambiguous problems, experimenting with emerging AI technologies, and turning ideas into production systems.

Develop reliable data and workflow infrastructure that can operate unattended, with appropriate monitoring and safeguards to identify failures before they impact business operations. Collaborate closely with marketing operations and broader go-to-market stakeholders to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions. Improve engineering practices within marketing technology by introducing version control, code review, testing, CI/CD, shared repositories, and maintainable development processes. Help advance the use of AI across marketing workflows by identifying opportunities to increase speed, quality, leverage, and operational efficiency. Requirements Previous professional experience in marketing or marketing operations is required, with a strong understanding of marketing funnels, attribution, lead scoring, campaign execution, deliverability, list hygiene, and consent practices.
