Role Description

We are currently looking for a Lifecycle Marketing Automation Specialist – Klaviyo to support a growing U.S.-based direct-to-consumer (DTC) food e-commerce company with a subscription-based business model.

We use Lifecycle Marketing Automation Specialist – Klaviyo in this posting to more clearly reflect the role's primary area of expertise and responsibilities.

• Flow architecture
• Audience qualification
• Segmentation
• Suppression logic
• Triggers
• Routing
• Testing
• Launch validation

The CRM team will define customer strategy, priorities, and overall program goals. Your role will focus on determining how those strategies should be technically implemented and optimized.

• Build, configure, and launch email, SMS, and lifecycle experiences in Klaviyo based on approved CRM briefs.
• Architect and maintain lifecycle flows, triggers, routing logic, and automation rules.
• Translate CRM strategies and business requirements into scalable technical implementations.
• Define and configure audience qualification criteria.

• Monitor launches and validate flow behavior after deployment.
• Optimize segmentation, suppressions, routing, qualification logic, and automation performance.
• Identify implementation risks and recommend solutions before launch.
• Manage implementation work independently from planning through launch and post-launch validation.

• Flow architecture
• Audience qualification
• Segmentation
• Trigger configuration
• Profile properties
• Suppression management
• Troubleshooting
• Experience implementing and optimizing lifecycle marketing automation programs.
• Experience supporting both email and SMS lifecycle programs.
• Experience with lifecycle testing and experimentation.
• Strong QA capabilities and exceptional attention to detail.
• Ability to independently manage implementation work with minimal oversight.

The Profile We’re Looking For

You are a hands-on Klaviyo builder and problem solver. Given an approved CRM brief, you can independently determine the appropriate flow architecture, audience qualification, segmentation, suppression logic, triggers, routing, QA approach, and launch requirements. You take ownership from implementation through launch and validation, proactively communicate risks, and know when to troubleshoot independently versus escalate an issue. Most importantly, your experience goes beyond scheduling and deploying email campaigns. You understand how lifecycle automation works technically and how to continuously improve it.

Why EX Squared?

At EX Squared, you’ll have the opportunity to collaborate with international teams and contribute to meaningful projects where ownership, problem-solving, and continuous improvement are valued. This opportunity gives you the chance to work closely with a growing U.S. DTC e-commerce business, applying your Klaviyo and lifecycle automation expertise in a highly hands-on environment.
