Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've executed B2B SaaS demand generation or lifecycle campaigns and can hit the ground running with Braze and Salesforce
  • You thrive on operational excellence—you love shipping campaigns on time, tracking data, and unblocking cross-functional teams
  • You're comfortable with ambiguity and fluctuating workload; you can self-manage a 10-20 hour/week engagement without micromanagement
  • You have ed-tech or education sector experience (bonus: you understand school buyer dynamics and app provider pain points)
  • You can write clear, engaging copy—emails that convert, landing pages that resonate with non-technical audiences
Won't Work If
  • You need full-time employment, benefits, or equity—this is a short-term contract (April-September 2026) with hourly pay only
  • You're used to strategic, big-picture growth work; this role is tactical and execution-focused with limited campaign innovation
  • You're unfamiliar with marketing automation platforms or have minimal B2B SaaS background—ramp-up time will eat into the 4-month window
  • You need consistent 40-hour weeks; workload fluctuates week-to-week and you must manage scope independently

Interview Process

Screening Call (30 min)

2

3

Tactical Skills Interview (45 min)

Walk through a hypothetical campaign brief; discuss how you'd structure the email nurture flow, set up Braze segments, and track performance.

4

Team Fit Chat (30 min)
