Job Description
AI Solutions Lead
Crux
• Build automation infrastructure: Design and implement sophisticated automation workflows using Zapier, n8n, Make, and custom API integrations to eliminate manual marketing processes • Implement AI-powered tools: Build and deploy AI/ML solutions for cross-functional business solutions • Design custom integrations: Create APIs, webhooks, and data connectors between our tools (HubSpot, Omni, InCycle, Clay) and internal systems • Collaborate cross-functionally: Partner with technical and business teams to align marketing infrastructure with product development and growth strategies
Job Requirements
- Full-Stack Growth Technologist: You're comfortable working across the entire marketing tech stack—from front-end tracking and analytics to back-end data processing and automation workflows.
- API & Integration Expert: You have hands-on experience building integrations between marketing tools, CRMs, and internal systems. You're comfortable with REST APIs, webhooks, and data transformation.
- AI/Automation Enthusiast: You're excited about leveraging AI and machine learning to optimize marketing processes. You've implemented AI-powered tools for lead scoring, content optimization, or process automation.
- Business-Minded Builder: While you're technical, you think about business outcomes. You understand conversion funnels, attribution models, and how technical infrastructure impacts revenue growth. Every automation is tied to revenue impact—thinks in terms of pipeline generated, hours saved, conversion improved.
- Startup Builder: You thrive in fast-paced startup environments where you need to build scalable solutions quickly, iterate based on feedback, and take ownership of critical business infrastructure.
- Analytical Thinker: You naturally gravitate toward data to validate assumptions before building; you can quickly identify which metrics actually matter vs. vanity numbers.
- Problem Solver & Collaborator: You operate with ownership in unclear swim lanes. You can scope a fuzzy request, ask smart questions, and move toward impact. You enjoy partnering with Growth, Commercial, and PDE.
Benefits
- Healthcare: We cover 100% of premiums for employees with a variety of plans on Aetna (nationwide) and Kaiser (WA and California) and subsidize 70% for dependents (total as a group), if relevant.
- Dental & vision: We cover 100% of premiums for employees and 50% for dependents (each), if relevant.
- Holidays: 10 company holidays per year.
- Paid time off: 20 days per year.
- 401k: We support a 401k account but don't have a matching program set up at this time (typical for an early-stage startup).
- Parental leave: 16 weeks for birthing parents and 12 weeks for non-birthing parents.
