About the role
About the Opportunity
The company is building the telemetry infrastructure for the AI era. This organization partners with IT and Security teams at many of the world’s biggest enterprises, including half of the Fortune 100, to bridge the gap between AI ambition and infrastructure reality. As the AI Platform for Telemetry, the organization gives customers the choice, control, and flexibility to manage and analyze telemetry for both humans and agents, so they can build what’s next. This is one of the fastest-growing private companies and a leading player in a massive, fast-moving market. With a global workforce, the company is remote-first and grounded in a simple idea: software is a people business. This is the place where curious, collaborative people can do their best work, grow fast, and bring their full selves to the herd.Why You’ll Love This Role
The organization is looking for a Senior Manager, Marketing Operations to help lead the next phase of how Marketing Operations supports the business.

This role will partner across Marketing, Sales, Revenue Operations, Enterprise Applications, and Analytics to ensure systems, data, and processes support efficient execution and better business outcomes.

- Improve how Marketing Operations supports internal stakeholders through better intake, prioritization, SLAs, and forward-looking capacity planning.
- Identify gaps, bottlenecks, and failure points in current processes and implement scalable fixes.
- Establish a more proactive operating rhythm with marketing leaders by surfacing risks, opportunities, and performance patterns before they become issues.
- Drive rigor in campaign execution, lead management, handoffs, and data quality so the team can support the business with greater consistency and confidence.
- Own and improve critical marketing operations workflows across Salesforce, Marketo, and adjacent GTM systems.
- Partner with RevOps, EntApps, and Analytics on routing, lifecycle logic, attribution, reporting, and system design.
- Support and optimize attribution and performance reporting workflows, with experience in platforms such as HockeyStack and similar attribution/reporting solutions while remaining platform-agnostic in approach.
- Help evaluate, implement, and operationalize workflow and automation solutions that improve team efficiency and scalability.
