Job Description & How to Apply Below

What You'll Own

Lifecycle automation

  • Own and optimize existing tracks across both brands: post-quiz, abandoned cart, post-purchase, and returning customer
  • Audit existing flows for performance, relevance, and accuracy — rebuild or retire what isn't earning its place
  • Build new tracks as products, audiences, and buying paths change
  • Develop segmentation and personalization strategies that make each send feel like it was written for one person
  • Apply all of the above to SMS as much as email — the two channels should work together, not duplicate each other

Campaigns and promotions

  • Write, design, build, stage, and send monthly promotional campaigns and flash sales for both brands, pulling in our in-house designers when a send calls for it
  • Own the email and SMS calendar, keeping it aligned with promos, product drops, and sales priorities so the rest of the company can see what's going out and when
  • Coordinate with Sales and Customer Support so what customers read matches what they hear on the phone

Product launches

  • Partner with product and marketing on launch planning — you're a stakeholder in launches, not a downstream recipient of them
  • Build launch sequences that introduce new products, explain the problem they solve, and reach the segments most likely to buy
  • Target launch sends against existing customer and lead data rather than blasting the full list

Voice and technical translation

  • Learn our products well enough to explain them accurately — pump curves, head pressure, panel sizing, wire runs
  • Translate that detail into plain language a first-time installer can act on. Most of our customers install these themselves, and many have never done it before.
  • Keep visual and written execution consistent from website to email to SMS — and keep the two brands sounding distinctly like themselves

Performance and testing

  • Lead A/B testing across subject lines, creative, personalization, and send-time optimization
  • Pull and review weekly performance reports, flag trends, and recommend tactical adjustments
  • Maintain list health: subscriber growth, engagement, deliverability, and compliance
Requirements
  • 3+ years in email marketing, lifecycle marketing, or marketing automation
  • Demonstrated success managing lifecycle programs, including triggered flows and journey orchestration
  • Hands‑on experience running SMS campaigns
  • Proficiency with an ESP like Ortto (what we use) or Klaviyo
  • Strong command of the fundamentals: targeting and segmentation, personalization, triggered automation, orchestrated journeys, and multivariate testing
  • Familiarity with deliverability best practices — list hygiene, spam compliance, engagement monitoring
  • Comfort reading performance data and turning it into a recommendation, not just a report
  • Ability to manage multiple campaigns across two brands in a fast-moving environment
  • An eye for design. You can mock up concepts yourself in HTML, Claude, or Canva — or direct style and structure clearly enough that one of our in-house designers can run with it.
  • Exceptional writing. This is a writing job as much as a marketing job.
Nice to Have
  • Working knowledge of analytics and reporting tools (GA4, Looker Studio, Segment)
  • Experience using AI tools for email marketing (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar)
  • Slack, Google Docs, Google Sheets
  • Background — professional or personal — with ranchers, farming, irrigation, rural living, solar, or industrial products
  • Experience explaining technical or mechanical products to non-technical buyers
  • Shopify experience
Who You Are
  • You love telling stories, understand the importance of meeting the customer with messaging that reflects where they’re at in their decision-making journey, and enjoy crafting systems that split audiences into segments and journeys.
  • You understand the art of “less is more” when it comes to creating impactful copy
  • You write in a voice that's fresh, consistent, and customer-friendly — and you can flex it to fit more than one brand.
  • You are excited about honing your analytics skills to understand the impact of the work you do and the content you create.
  • You're self-directed and have a hunger to learn, grow, and share what you're excited about. We get better as a team every day, and we want you in that.
  • You…
