We run a portfolio of performance-led DTC brands scaling fast across the US and international markets. We move quickly, test constantly, and win on strong creative and disciplined execution - and email plus CRM is one of our highest-leverage retention channels. We're looking for a technically strong Email Marketing Specialist to be the hands-on builder behind our Retention team's strategy in Klaviyo. This is a technical execution role: our Retention team sets the strategy and flow directives, copywriters supply the copy, and Marketing Operations owns the campaign calendar. You own the backend - building flows, wiring up triggers and integrations, managing data and deliverability, and making sure every automation fires exactly as intended. Strategy is collaborative - you'll work closely with the Retention and Growth leads and are always welcome to brainstorm and help shape ideas together.
What You'll Be Doing
Klaviyo & CRM Technical Build
• Build and set up flows and campaigns in Klaviyo based on directives from the Retention team
• Configure the CRM technical layer - triggers, events, flow filters, and conditional/branch splitting - so each journey fires on the right behavior at the right moment
• Dynamic personalization - use Liquid, event/profile properties, and dynamic blocks to personalize content, and build responsive templates with light HTML/CSS
• Data & integrations - manage the Shopify ↔ Klaviyo ↔ Salesforce data sync, custom properties, catalog/data feeds, and webhooks/API or connectors so events and audiences flow correctly across tools
• Deliverability infrastructure - maintain sender authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and sending-domain health, plus list hygiene and sunset logic to protect inbox placement
• Subscription setup - wire up subscription-app events and flows (activation, rebill, cancellation, win-back) to support retention
• Implement provided copy - drop copywriter-supplied copy into clean, mobile-ready templates and make backend adjustments to match the purpose of each flow/campaign
Campaign Execution & Calendar
• Execute the email calendar, which aligns with the paid-media sales calendar set by Marketing Operations (in collaboration with Retention)
• Build, QA, and schedule campaigns end-to-end: links, personalization, rendering, and error checks before every send
• Set up segmentation per Retention directives rather than blasting full lists by default
• Coordinate closely with Retention, copy, and Growth so email execution supports the wider plan
Testing & Reporting
• Set up and run A/B tests as directed by the Head of Growth / Retention leads, structured cleanly for reliable reads
• Track and report execution metrics - sends launched, deliverability, engagement - so Retention has clear data to optimize against
• Flag issues and opportunities you spot; ideas are always welcome in team brainstorms
Requirements
• Proven Klaviyo experience - hands-on building flows, segments, and campaigns from scratch, including advanced flow logic (triggers, filters, conditional splits)
• Dynamic content & templating - comfortable with Liquid, dynamic/personalization tags, and light HTML/CSS for building and troubleshooting responsive email templates
• Data & integrations - understands events, custom properties, and syncing data across Shopify, Klaviyo, and a CRM; familiar with webhooks, APIs, or connectors (e.g. Zapier/Make)
• Deliverability fundamentals - knows sender authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), list hygiene, and how to protect inbox placement
• Salesforce (or comparable CRM) - confident on the technical/data side: field mapping, syncing, and keeping data clean
• Subscription know-how - experience with subscription apps and the rebill/retention mechanics behind a subscription DTC model
• Strong execution & attention to detail - takes directives and builds them accurately, cleanly, and on time
• Experience with DTC or ecommerce brands, ideally on Shopify
Benefits
• Work at the technical heart of a high-leverage retention channel across a fast-scaling, multi-brand portfolio
• Collaborative environment - strategy is shaped together, and you're welcome to brainstorm with Retention and Growth leads
• A fast-paced team with no red tape - decisions happen quickly and good ideas ship
• Learn directly from experienced Retention and Growth leads
• Room to grow into a broader retention/lifecycle marketing role as the portfolio scales
