Job Summary

Build and own scalable email production and template logic for transactional and lifecycle campaigns in Maropost, with localization, migration from Mandrill, and Shopify integration to support a multi-country e-commerce replatform.

  • Own end-to-end email production and template logic across transactional and lifecycle campaigns.
  • Collaborate on a design-system-aligned component library and global header/footer for scalable campaigns.
  • Coordinate migration and localization, ensuring end-to-end delivery, testing, and stakeholder alignment.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Build and deploy ~100 transactional and lifecycle emails in Maropost — order confirmations, shipping notifications, refunds, cancellations, account updates, abandoned cart, welcome/onboarding, reorder flows, product review requests, and promotional campaigns
  • Develop a reusable, modular component library plus a global header/footer system aligned with the client's new design system
  • Implement Liquid-based dynamic templates with conditional logic for variables like customer type (e.g., preferred customer vs. unaffiliated buyer), autoship vs. non-autoship, affiliate flows, subscription lifecycle events, and lead routing
  • Configure multi-country and multi-language localization
  • Wire up Shopify triggers to Maropost flows; validate end-to-end functionality alongside the broader platform migration
  • Coordinate with subscription tooling (Seal Subscriptions) for subscription-related email events
  • Support a dedicated QA phase covering business logic variability, localization, deliverability, and rendering across major clients and devices
  • Document templates, components, and conditional logic so the client's marketing team can maintain and extend the system post-launch

Requirements

  • 3+ years of hands-on email development experience with production builds inside an ESP
  • Direct Maropost experience strongly preferred. Will consider experienced developers from Klaviyo, Iterable, Braze, Customer.io, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, or similar platforms if you can ramp quickly
  • Prior experience executing an ESP migration, ideally Mandrill → another platform
  • Strong command of Liquid templating (or comparable ESP templating languages)
  • Expert-level HTML/CSS for email: tables, inline styles, MSO conditional comments, dark mode handling, and responsive techniques that survive Outlook
  • Experience integrating an ESP with Shopify (or comparable ecommerce platform), including event-triggered transactional flows
  • Comfort translating Figma designs into pixel-faithful production templates
  • High attention to detail around conditional logic, edge cases, and localization variants
  • Familiarity with email QA tooling (Litmus, Email on Acid, or similar)

Preferred

  • Maropost certifications or shippable Maropost portfolio work
  • Subscription / autoship email flow experience (Seal Subscriptions, ReCharge, Skio, etc.)
  • Multi-language / multi-country email programs at scale
  • Deliverability fundamentals (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, sender reputation, suppression management)
  • Working on migration timelines tied to a larger replatform launch
