Head of Marketing Technology & Automation (Independent Contractor)

AI Acquisition is the global category leader in AI service provider enablement. Operating globally with the US as its primary market, our unique hybrid of Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and AI marketplace has achieved explosive growth by connecting AI agencies with qualified enterprise opportunities at scale.

We are looking for a Head of Marketing Technology & Automation to take absolute ownership of our end-to-end marketing infrastructure. This is not a traditional virtual assistant or ticket-taking role. We are hiring a true Technical Operator,someone who will look at our marketing landscape, independently design the strategy, and execute the architecture completely free of day-to-day oversight.

Responsibilities:

• Infrastructure Ownership & Strategy: Act as the technical architect for all marketing funnels. Autonomously design, implement, and audit data pathways without needing micro-management from leadership.
• Tracking, Attribution & Financial Reconciliation: Implement and structurally maintain comprehensive attribution tracking (Meta pixel + Conversions API, GTM server-side tagging, GA4); define and enforce strict UTM frameworks; ruthlessly debug data or numbers discrepancies between ad platforms, our CRM (Close), and payment gateways (Whop/Stripe) end-to-end.
• Reporting & Anomaly Detection: Build, own, and maintain marketing campaign dashboards. Guarantee 100% data fidelity, proactively deep-diving into analytics anomalies and fixing root-cause tracking bugs before leadership ever has to ask.
• Funnel Operations: Oversee and optimize high-converting landing pages, VSL pages, opt-in forms, and complex multi-path booking flows across our page builders. Set up clean split-testing parameters ensuring zero leakage in data recording.
• Advanced Automation & System Architecture: Architect and manage robust n8n webhooks and multi-branch workflows connecting external forms, Close CRM, Slack, Google Sheets, and our email platform,ensuring strict error handling and automated fallback paths are built natively into every execution loop.
• Email Ops & Deliverability Architecture: Direct the execution of multi-step behavioral email sequences and system triggers within our ESP. Own long-term list hygiene, technical exit conditions, domain isolation, and overall deliverability metrics.
• AI Orchestration: Aggressively leverage AI agents and advanced prompt engineering to accelerate team output; identify key areas in our pipeline where AI steps can scale throughput or operational intelligence.
• Future Scope: Take full technical ownership of the marketing operations department, with the runway to hire, structure, and directly manage junior technical VAs/contractors as we scale.

Requirements:

• Ownership & Operator Mindset (Non-Negotiable): You have a proven track record of owning marketing technology stacks entirely without oversight. You have personally managed a technical team or solo function for a fast-growing agency/SaaS, setting up complex tech ecosystems from scratch. You think like a business owner, not a component builder.
• High Horsepower & Agency: Given a highly ambiguous brief, you fill the gaps with sensible architectural choices, explicitly document your core assumptions, flag uncertainties, and ship completely functional results first time round.
• Automation Mastery: Extensive hands-on depth in advanced workflow automation tools (n8n strongly preferred; Make/Zapier acceptable only with a portfolio proving complex, multi-branch builds, heavy webhook parsing, custom API requests, and built-in error trapping).
• Deep Tracking Fluency: You can tell a specific technical war story about a severe numbers mismatch between an ad platform and a CRM that you independently tracked down, debugged, and resolved via server-side tagging or webhooks.
• Code Literacy: Highly comfortable working with custom REST APIs, raw JSON data manipulation, and webhooks. Scripting familiarity (HTML, JavaScript, or Python) is a significant plus.
• Async-Native Communicator: Absolute fluency in written and spoken English. You communicate with precision, utilize concise written technical updates, and record brief, context-rich Looms to align teams across time zones.

Benefits:

• Training Provided: You’ll receive full support to succeed in your role, including onboarding process training, hands-on guidance using Asana and Slack for project coordination, and ongoing mentorship from senior technical leads.
• Remote Flexibility: Work from anywhere with a stable internet connection while maintaining professional async-native structures.
• Skill Growth: Gain elite experience in AI orchestration, advanced automation (n8n), and high-level marketing operations.
• Supportive Team: Join a collaborative environment that values technical curiosity, blunt direct feedback, and professional growth.
• Real Impact: Your builds directly power the growth of our members, optimize funnel mechanics, and scale the overall organization.
