About the role
- Build and own n8n’s marketing operations backbone—maturing Customer.io, standardizing tracking/attribution, and accelerating high-quality campaign execution that Marketing and RevOps can trust.
- Customer.io ownership & lifecycle orchestration
- Lead end-to-end ownership of Customer.io: audience architecture, templates, journeys, and experimentation.
- Design and launch lifecycle programs (activation, nurture, product updates) with clear entry/exit rules and rate limits.
- Improve deliverability and list health through segmentation, preference management, and hygiene routines.
- Tracking, attribution & data governance
- Define and enforce UTM, naming, and campaign ID standards that make performance measurable across tools.
- Implement pragmatic multi-touch attribution with CRM/BI alignment and clear definitions for sourced vs influenced.
- Partner with RevOps/Data to ensure accurate event mapping, field syncs, and SLAs for data quality.
- Campaign build, QA & launch velocity
- Translate briefs into segmented sends and journeys; build, test, and launch with speed and precision.
- Run a rigorous pre-flight QA checklist (merge tags, fallbacks, links/UTMs, consent, quiet hours, seed tests).
- Set and improve SLAs from intake to launch, reducing cycle time without sacrificing quality.
- Reporting & insights for decision-making
- Ship self-serve dashboards on campaign performance, deliverability health, and lifecycle conversion.
- Establish weekly operating metrics and readouts that inform budget, targeting, and experiment priorities.
- Diagnose anomalies and propose data-driven iterations to lift activation and engagement.
- Process, enablement & documentation
- Create playbooks, templates, and intake processes that scale execution across Marketing.
- Host office hours and partner training so teammates can brief better and self-serve within guardrails.
- Maintain clear documentation for journeys, schemas, and standards to ensure continuity.
- MarTech stack & integrations
- Audit the current stack and recommend integrations or automations that reduce manual work.
- Collaborate with Engineering/Product for event instrumentation needed to power lifecycle triggers.
- Evaluate build vs buy trade-offs and drive well-scoped improvements that deliver impact in 60–90 days.
Requirements
- 📧 Hands-on email ops (Customer.io preferred): You’ve owned campaign builds, journeys, templates, and QA end-to-end.
- 🧭 Tracking & attribution rigor: You enforce UTM/naming standards and can stand up practical multi-touch attribution with RevOps/CRM.
- 📊 Data fluency: You’re comfortable with metrics, funnels, and lightweight analysis (spreadsheets/BI; basic SQL a plus) to inform decisions.
- 🧩 Process mindset: You run structured intake, SLAs, and documentation; stakeholders trust your clarity and attention to detail.
- 🛡️ Compliance awareness: You respect GDPR/consent, manage suppressions/frequency caps, and bake compliance into workflows.
- ⚡ Bias to action: You pair strategic thinking with willingness to build, test, and iterate quickly.
- 🔌 Integrations & RevOps tooling: You’ve connected marketing systems to CRM/warehouse and understand reverse ETL patterns.
- 🧪 Experimentation chops: You design A/B tests and holdouts and read results beyond vanity metrics.
- 🧱 PLG/dev audience context: You’ve supported open-source or developer-focused products with lifecycle programs.
- 🧾 SQL & event modeling: You can express segment logic in pseudocode/SQL and reason about product-triggered messaging.
