About The Position

This job, and the team at Instinct, is remote. The Manager, Marketing Operations is a senior individual contributor responsible for architecting, operating, and continuously improving the systems and workflows that power Instinct’s marketing engine across all product lines. Reporting to the VP of Revenue Operations, this role sits at the intersection of marketing strategy and technical execution, owning the marketing technology stack and ensuring every system, process, and data flow is instrumented, automated, and built to scale. This role requires someone who operates with equal fluency at the strategic and execution levels: one moment designing a lead scoring model aligned to account-based marketing priorities, the next building the automation that brings it to life. You bring deep expertise across the full buyer spectrum, from individual practitioners to enterprise decision-makers, and you design systems that reflect the nuance of each motion. You are AI-first and automation-first in your approach, actively eliminating manual work and replacing it with durable, well-documented systems. You are relentlessly focused on the customer journey and view every workflow, form, and handoff as an opportunity to improve the experience of the people Instinct serves.

Proven experience managing lead scoring, persona segmentation, and account-based marketing infrastructure across both SMB/individual and enterprise buyer segments.
Experience with data enrichment tools, identity resolution, and multi-system integration management.
Proficiency with analytics and BI tools; Mixpanel and Metabase experience preferred.

Strong analytical capability; able to instrument funnels, interpret attribution data, and translate findings into operational recommendations.

Nice To Haves

Experience in a multi-product or multi-segment SaaS environment preferred.
