About the Role

Our growth marketing team is the engine behind pipeline, and we're looking for someone who sits at the intersection of campaign operations and AI to help us create better experiences for our prospects and customers, faster and more effectively.

This role owns the execution layer: you are the owner of our email channel – operations, performance, deliverability, and compliance – alongside campaign builds, database health, and the workflows that connect it all. You'll use AI to streamline execution, personalize interactions, and build workflows the whole team benefits from, making every touchpoint more relevant and timely at scale. Your work ensures a seamless experience for prospects, reliable data to inform future decisions, and full activation of our growing database. 

This role is ideal for someone who geeks out on how marketing operations actually works and gets genuinely excited about what AI makes possible. You're already hands-on with tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and HubSpot Breeze, and you have opinions about them. You care about the experience on the other end of every email you send, you're energized by building systems that scale, and you thrive in a team that moves fast and values impact. You'll work with best-in-class tools including HubSpot, Salesforce, Qualified, Clay, and Asana – and you'll bring the curiosity and drive to push what's possible with all of them.
