Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Lead cross-functional teams through the full project lifecycle—from discovery and scoping to launch and post-launch optimization—by setting clear expectations, removing blockers, and fostering accountability.
  • Serve as the primary technical point of contact for clients, leading technology discussions with confidence and translating technical concepts into business-friendly language.
  • Act as a liaison between account management, operations teams, and developer/engineers proactively aligning priorities and ensuring seamless collaboration.
  • Guide projects through governance processes by balancing time, scope, and compliance considerations while advocating for the best possible client outcome.
  • Gather business, marketing, and technical requirements through active listening and targeted discovery, synthesizing inputs into comprehensive solution designs.
  • Architect data feeds, platform configurations, and automated campaign workflows that are scalable, maintainable, and aligned with client goals.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve client data feed issues with a resourceful, solutions-oriented mindset—leveraging documentation, platform tools, and peer expertise.
  • Develop project scoping and estimating guidelines that enable accurate planning and set realistic client expectations.
  • Stay current on Braze platform updates, cross-channel marketing trends, and emerging third-party integrations, and proactively share insights with the broader team.
  • Identify patterns in recurring client requests and champion internal process or tooling improvements that raise the bar for the entire organization.

  • Exceptional communication skills—you can simplify complex technical topics for non-technical stakeholders and present with clarity and confidence.
  • Strong collaborative instincts with a track record of leading cross-functional teams without direct reporting authority.
