Responsibilities

Platform Enablement:

• Collaborate with Software Engineers to develop and implement backend services and APIs for notification creation, orchestration, routing, sending, and tracking, particularly for mobile and push channels.
• Contribute to building reusable components (templates, personalization, experimentation, preference management) that will be utilized for day-to-day campaign operations.

Omni-channel Integration:

• Support the integration with various communication providers/gateways (email, SMS, push, in-app), focusing on maintaining robust connectors, especially for mobile and push.
• Help implement channel-agnostic patterns to enable product and marketing teams to launch campaigns across multiple channels with minimal additional engineering effort.
• Partner with upstream orchestration/journey tools and downstream channel endpoints to ensure end-to-end reliability of communication flows.

Reliability & Operations:

• Contribute to defining and monitoring Service Level Indicators/Objectives and error budgets for critical notification services.
• Support the implementation of comprehensive logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting systems for rapid issue detection and resolution.
• Participate in on-call rotations, incident response, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement of operational runbooks, in collaboration with platform engineering.

Data, Targeting, & Experimentation:

• Work with data engineering and activation teams to securely consume customer and event data for targeting, triggers, and personalization of mobile/push campaigns.
• Help implement guardrails for frequency capping, throttling, suppression, and failover strategies across all channels, with a focus on mobile/push experiences.
• Enable A/B tests and experiments at both platform and activation levels (e.g., templates, channels, timing, routing).

Compliance, Security, & Governance:

• Assist in implementing and maintaining guardrails for consent, opt-in/opt-out, and channel-level preferences, considering regional and regulatory nuances (e.g., privacy regulations, communication compliance standards).
• Ensure secure handling of customer data and secrets in alignment with enterprise security policies.
• Collaborate with Legal, Privacy, Security, and Compliance teams to embed requirements into platform capabilities and campaign activation workflows.

Collaboration & Activation Transition:

• Partner with product managers, channel operations, marketing activation, and mobile/web teams to translate business requirements into scalable technical designs and activation playbooks.
• Contribute to technical roadmaps, backlog grooming, and prioritization for the notification platform, ensuring future activation needs (especially those leveraging enterprise journey orchestration tools) are represented.
• Serve as a crucial link between Engineering and the Activation team, documenting and operationalizing best practices for campaign setup, QA, launch, monitoring, and optimization.

Post-Transition Focus:

• Own end-to-end mobile/push campaign execution within enterprise journey orchestration tools, from brief intake and configuration through QA, launch, and monitoring.
• Maintain campaign templates, journeys, and audiences within these tools, aligning with platform guardrails and channel strategy
• Collaborate closely with Analytics, Product, and Marketing to analyze performance, recommend optimizations, and roll out experiments.

Required Skills & Experience

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Marketing Technology, Data/Analytics, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 3-7+ years of experience in one or more of the following:
  • Software/platform engineering with a focus on backend or notification systems.
  • Marketing technology / campaign operations roles (e.g., mobile, push, or CRM operations) working closely with engineering teams
  • Technical campaign operations background with strong experience in enterprise decision management systems and a working understanding of API-based integrations.
• Hands-on experience with distributed systems and event-driven architectures (e.g., event streaming platforms or similar).
• Experience integrating with or working on notification/messaging platforms (email, SMS, push, in-app)…
