Build Love 💜:

At Superhuman, we have a deep understanding of how to build products that people love. We incorporate fun and play, infusing magic and joy to create experiences that amaze and delight. It all starts with the right team — a team that deeply cares about values, customers, and each other.

Create Massive Impact 🚀:

Our lifecycle marketing engine runs on a foundation of reliable, well-maintained systems. The data pipelines, sync configurations, and technical integrations that power our campaigns don’t manage themselves — and getting them right directly affects how we reach and retain millions of users. This role sits at that foundation, keeping it solid so the broader team can move fast and build with confidence.

As Lifecycle Marketing Systems Specialist, you will serve as a technical generalist and hands-on executor within Superhuman’s Lifecycle Marketing Operations team, reporting to the Senior Manager, Marketing Systems Architecture.

This is a high-execution, detail-oriented role for someone who thrives in the weeds of martech systems — someone who finds satisfaction in keeping complex platforms running cleanly, resolving the technical friction that slows teams down, and being the connective tissue between marketing and engineering. You won’t just support programs — you’ll own the operational infrastructure that makes them possible and have the opportunity to build your own solutions leveraging the latest AI technologies. .

You’ll take on the day-to-day technical work that keeps our lifecycle systems healthy and our teams unblocked, freeing up senior capacity for strategic and product-level work.

In this role, you will:

• Act as the technical backbone of the lifecycle marketing operations function, owning platform administration and day-to-day execution across martech systems

• Administer and maintain Hightouch as the primary reverse ETL platform — including managing parent models, building and updating audience syncs, reviewing and approving sync requests, and ensuring sync health across destinations

• Serve as the first line of support for martech systems issues, triaging problems, diagnosing root causes, and either resolving them directly or escalating with clear context to engineering

• Partner with engineering and marketing teams to support technical implementations — translating requirements between stakeholders, coordinating handoffs, and helping drive work to completion

• Monitor sync performance and pipeline integrity, proactively catching failures, data inconsistencies, or configuration drift before they impact campaigns

• Maintain and document platform configurations, data models, and operational processes, ensuring the team has reliable references as systems evolve

• Manage access, permissions, and governance across martech platforms, keeping configurations clean and auditable

• Support audience segmentation and data hygiene work in partnership with Data and Lifecycle teams

• Assist with QA and testing for new integrations, campaign launches, and platform changes, helping catch issues before they hit production

• Identify and flag operational inefficiencies, contributing ideas for process improvement and automation opportunities

• Contribute to our team’s evolution by building with AI

• 2–4 years of experience in marketing operations, marketing technology, or a related technical role

• Hands-on experience with reverse ETL or data activation platforms — Hightouch or similar tools (Census, ActionIQ, etc) experience strongly preferred

• Comfortable working directly with data and audiences in a warehouse-connected environment (Databricks, Snowflake, BigQuery, or similar)

• Basic to intermediate SQL skills — able to read, modify, and troubleshoot queries without needing to write complex models from scratch

• Strong systems thinker who can follow a data flow end-to-end and identify where things are breaking down

• Able to communicate technical context clearly across engineering and marketing audiences — you know how to translate

• Detail-oriented with a track record of catching issues before they become incidents

• Experience with marketing automation platforms (Iterable, Braze, Marketo, or similar)

• Familiarity with event streaming concepts (how data flows from product events into marketing platforms) is a plus

• Comfortable in a fast-moving environment where priorities shift and ambiguity is part of the job

• Bonus: Has demonstrated the ability to build solutions with AI applications like Claude

• Has a demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal guidance, proactively manages tasks and priorities across multiple projects, analyzes and executes work efficiently, collaborates effectively with cross-functional teams, and thrives in fast-paced, results-driven environments
