Marketing Engineer

Wonolo (Work Now Locally) is disrupting the $140BN temporary staffing industry. Founded in 2014, Wonolo's mission is to help people find consistent work.

Wonolo has raised over $200M in funding which will continue to help us empower the in‑demand workforce by democratizing access to flexible work, opportunities to learn new skills, a living wage, and comprehensive portable benefits and perks.
We’re hiring a
Marketing Engineer
to build the AI-native system that brings workers to Wonolo, gets them through their first job, and keeps them coming back. This is a business-to-consumer (B2C) role. Your users are workers, not companies. You’ll be building growth systems for a marketplace, not plumbing for a sales team.
You’ll work alongside the team that leads funnel and lifecycle strategy and turn their priorities into automations, AI-powered flows, and campaigns that run themselves. Market data is your main input for deciding where to focus. When the data doesn’t capture something about a specific customer or market, you’ll partner with our Business Operations team to get it.
We welcome qualified candidates located anywhere in Canada #LI-Remote.
What you’ll do:Lifecycle and Activation Automation
Map the worker journey from first touch through churn and build the automations that remove friction
Build journeys in Iterable or similar tools that pull a segment of workers by data filters and enroll them in a campaign automatically when a metric drops below a threshold, like fill rate in a region or first-job completion
Build triggered onboarding, re‑engagement, and win‑back flows, plus the logic that decides who gets what and when
Use Large Language Models (LLMs) to personalize messaging and lift conversion, not just to write copy faster
Paid and Channel Automation
Use Looker data to create triggers that turn paid social campaigns on and off automatically through the Meta, TikTok, and similar application programming interfaces (APIs)
Build integrations that programmatically post job listings based on the open roles on our platform
Build automations that speed up campaign activation across organic and paid channels, including social, job boards, search, and answer engine optimization
AI‑Native Workflows and Evaluation
Rebuild manual marketing workflows to be AI-native
Build AI agent workflows for acquisition, content creation, and competitive intelligence, covering prompts, data sources, structured outputs, and the human checkpoints that need to stay in the loop
Build evaluation frameworks that measure whether our agents are doing the job well, tied back to marketing key performance indicators (KPIs)
Reporting and Experimentation
Automate our campaign reporting end to end
Design tests with a clear hypothesis, ship them, read the results, and decide what to scale or kill
Day-to-Day Execution
Monitor market health and activate the right playbook when a customer launches or ramps, fill rate drops, workers churn, or a geographic gap opens up, and flag when conditions call for something new
Treat every campaign you run by hand as a spec for the next thing you automate
Who you are:
2 to 4 years in a technical role where you built and shipped, whether your title was growth, lifecycle, marketing operations, Go‑To‑Market (GTM) engineering, analytics, or automation. What you built matters more than the title
You write Structured Query Language (SQL) from scratch and are comfortable in Looker or a similar business intelligence tool
You work with APIs directly, handle authentication and webhooks, and build automations end to end in Zapier, n8n, Make, or code, including error handling and maintenance after launch
Hands‑on experience with LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI) and agents, including prompt design, structured outputs, and evaluation loops
Experience building triggered campaigns in Iterable or a similar platform, or comparable automations from scratch
A structured approach to experimentation. You define what success looks like before you build and measure it after
You've shipped internal tools that teams actually adopted
Nice‑to‑haves, or you'll learn here:
How users behave in a B2C funnel and where drop‑off happens
Experience in a marketplace or gig economy product with a two‑sided user base
Familiarity with paid acquisition channels and how to automate decisioning across them
Experience with Clay, Framer, or Lovable
