The Opportunity

We're looking for a Lifecycle Marketing Sr. Manager to build and scale the customer journeys that power Fireworks' growth engine across both product-led and sales-led motions.

This isn't a traditional CRM or email marketing role. It's a strategic growth role focused on delivering the right message, to the right audience, at the right time—whether they're a prospective buyer, self-serve developer, or enterprise customer.

You'll own the strategy and execution of personalized lifecycle experiences across email, in-product messaging, web, AI-powered touchpoints, and sales- and customer success-enabled programs. Working closely with Product, Growth Marketing, Product Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Engineering, and Data, you'll build intelligent customer journeys that nurture prospects, accelerate product adoption, deepen customer engagement, and drive long-term retention and expansion.

You'll define how Fireworks communicate throughout the customer lifecycle using behavioral data, product usage, account insights, experimentation, and automation to create experiences that feel timely, relevant, and personalized. You'll also build lifecycle systems that continuously improve through AI, customer behavior, and experimentation.

This is a foundational opportunity to build Lifecycle Marketing from the ground up at one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure companies.

What You'll Be Doing

Own the Lifecycle Strategy

Design and own Fireworks' lifecycle strategy across the entire customer journey—from lead nurture and onboarding through activation, adoption, retention, expansion, and advocacy.

Build Demand Generation & Customer Journeys

Partner closely with Product, Sales, Customer Success, and Growth Marketing to deliver the right message through the right channel based on customer behavior, buying stage, product usage, and account signals.
