Marketing Engineer (Growth Platform)

Faire’s marketing org runs largely on systems marketing does not currently build. Audiences and attributes, campaign automation, landing pages, attribution, translation, paid feeds, monitoring and alerting: today most of it gets assembled request by request, or waits on a partner engineering pod carrying its own roadmapThe Marketing Engineer builds those systems inside marketing, on Faire’s production stack, and enables marketers to then run soloThis is an engineering role sitting inside marketing. You will write production code across Faire’s codebase, own services end to end, take part in on-call, and put agents into marketing workflows with the evals and monitoring that make them trustworthy at scaleYou will be measured on whether the marketing org gained a capability it did not have beforeThe surface you own can span various disciplines: Paid media tooling and feed automation, the landing page framework, lifecycle and campaign systems, the marketing data layer, internal platform tooling, and the consumption layer for Faire’s recommendation and propensity models inside marketing surfaces are all in scope. You will help define how we work with our broader EPDD partner teamsBefore you join, these problems will probably have moved, you should be comfortable with that. Below are two current problems we’re looking at solving short term:Marketing-led landing pages. Our current marketing led landing pages workflow is slower than it should be for the blog, newsroom and content teams, and for landing page tests in lifecycle and paid we’re often spending more time talking/prioritizing experiments than building experiences for themYou will own this surface end to end, and you will own the recommendation on where it goes next: you might decide between vendor vs. in-house solution, or build a self-serve, agentic landing page service. The outcome is simple, better, faster landing pages, more self serve, and happy partner teamsSelf-serve audiences and attributes. Our partner teams currently go through us for Audience syncing with paid platforms and marketing led lifecycleWe think this should be a self service capability available to our marketers: whether that’s a vendor or in-house, how the data contract gets enforced in code, and what the self-serve layer looks like are all open questions this person will answer to ensure we reach the right person at the right time with the right messageOther projects on our radar: a learning loop for generative assets in ad campaigns, improving infra behind core intelligence feeds powering our paid campaigns, real-time recommendation management across lifecycle and paid, and moreOwn services end to end. Design, build, review, deploy, monitorShip in Faire’s production codebase, to Faire’s engineering standards, with code review by engineersSit with lifecycle, paid, brand and product marketing rather than behind a ticket queue. Find the pattern behind the requests, then decide what to build so they stop arrivingPut agents into the patterned majority of the queue, with an eval harness, monitoring and a defined failure mode before anything reaches a customerTurn ambiguous asks into a scoped, prioritized plan, and communicate tradeoffs and progress to non-technical stakeholdersBenefits
