About The Position

Our client, a leading global travel technology marketplace, is looking for an Airtable Operations Manager to join its business technology team. This team builds the systems and tooling that power supply acquisition, vetting, and optimization across the business, working closely with product, engineering, and operations partners. You will own a large portfolio of Airtable bases (45 to 50), serving as the go-to expert for architecture, automation, and reporting. A key part of the role is advising on when workflows should scale beyond Airtable into internal systems. The team moves fast, priorities shift day to day, and you will have real influence on how tooling evolves.

Requirements

• 6+ years of work experience in technology, operations, or consulting
• Deep Airtable mastery: schema design, automations, scripting, interfaces, and syncs; able to reverse-engineer large, undocumented bases quickly
• Strong architecture instincts: scalable base design and knowing when data belongs in Airtable versus a warehouse or CRM
• Hands-on coding ability in JavaScript or Node.js (Python acceptable) with SQL fluency
• Production-quality low-code or no-code integration experience (Tray.ai, n8n, Workato, or similar)
• Experience managing large cross-functional projects, including use case identification, team onboarding, and technical support
• Comfortable with ambiguity; self-sufficient in fast-moving environments with minimal documentation
• Excellent written and oral communication; strong cross-functional collaborator

Nice To Haves

• Airtable AI experience; an AI-first or AI-fluent way of working
• Familiarity with Salesforce, Retool, or similar CRM and ops platforms
• Domain familiarity with sales pipelines and CRM, media operations, QA/QMS, or vetting and licensing workflows
• Master's degree

Responsibilities

• Partner with cross-functional business stakeholders to gather and prioritize tooling requirements and translate them into scalable Airtable solutions
• Design and build custom Airtable interfaces for fast, self-serve reporting
• Maintain and optimize a large portfolio of existing Airtable bases, including troubleshooting data discrepancies flowing in from core systems
• Build automations and scripts connecting Airtable with low-code and no-code tools such as n8n, Tray.ai, or Workato
• Manage the full project lifecycle: requirements gathering, solution development, testing, deployment, and performance reporting
• Advise on Airtable architecture and guide decisions on when to graduate workflows off Airtable into the internal codebase
• Help address a tech debt backlog and monitor prototypes and experimental use cases to evaluate readiness to scale

Benefits

• 9-month contract with strong potential for extension based on performance and business need
• Full-time, 40 hours per week
• PST work hours required
• $70.00 to $80.00 per hour (W2)
