WHAT YOU'LL BRING: • The Hybrid Profile: 3-5 years of experience in GTM Operations, Growth Engineering, or RevOps, with a proven track record of building technical marketing stacks. • AI Expertise: Deep technical fluency with LLMs (Gemini, Claude) and an understanding of how to apply them to business logic and outbound automation. • Systems Thinking: The ability to treat a marketing strategy like a software stack—building repeatable, scalable, and automated workflows. • Technical Toolset: Proficiency in automation platforms (Make/n8n), data enrichment tools (Clay), and a strong understanding of API integrations. (Coding skills in Python or JavaScript are a major plus). • Analytical Rigor: A problem-solver who enjoys making decisions based on hard data and can provide technical recommendations for ongoing system improvements. • Communication: The ability to translate complex technical architectures into clear business outcomes for Ripple Treasury stakeholders. • Curiosity: A "builder" mindset with a commitment to staying at the forefront of the rapidly evolving AI and automation landscape.
