• Manage technical experimentation: Test automation logic, evaluate system performance, identify scalability risks before deployment, and continuously refine workflows based on usage data and pipeline outcomes.

• Lead and develop team members: Manage, coach, and prioritize work for one direct report, supporting their growth and increasing ownership of BDR tools and processes.

• Coordinate cross-functional priorities: Manage incoming automation requests, balance competing stakeholder needs, and align Marketing Operations, Growth Marketing, Customer Marketing, Event Marketing, BDR Leadership, Revenue Operations, and IT around delivery priorities.
