About Customer.io
Over 7,500 companies — from scrappy startups to global brands — use our platform to send billions of emails, push notifications, in-app messages, and SMS every day. Customer.io powers automated communication that people actually want to receive. We help teams send smarter, more relevant messages using real-time behavioral data.
About you
You’re a systems-minded operator and strategic partner who loves bringing order to chaos. You blend business intuition, executive presence, a bias for action, and a knack for turning fragmented tools and processes into streamlined, scalable workflows. You’re energized by solving operational challenges, particularly in product-led SaaS environments, and you’re curious about how AI can enhance internal efficiency. Whether it’s rolling up your sleeves to audit tools, designing smarter workflows, or supporting strategic initiatives, you bring clarity, precision, and an ownership mindset to everything you do.
What you’ll do
Audit, document, and modernize our product, design, and docs workflows, identifying opportunities for AI augmentation or automation, for example:
- Drive consolidation of product feedback and tooling into Enterpret, including mapping inflows from existing and new systems of record within sales and customer experience.
- Lead the maintenance and adoption of Enterpret as our product intelligence platform, maximizing cross-functional engagement and ensuring it serves as the system of record for product feedback and insights.
- Build and deploy Slack-based AI bots using no-code platforms like Kapa.ai to answer common internal product questions (e.g., Switchboard-style assistance for fast lookups).
- Collaborate with Product and Design leads to archive and clean up legacy content wherever it lurks—removing stale docs and improving discoverability.
Serve as an execution-oriented partner to the VP of Product & Design, assisting with special projects, deliverables, and acting as a go-to resource on operational and cross-functional matters, such as:
- Researching and consulting on organizational design for high-performance product and design teams
- Reviewing and organizing product goals and metrics needed for targeted communications
- Conducting pricing reviews and investigations across our SaaS offerings and tiers
- Supporting the development of internal presentations to represent Product & Design in business reviews (EBR’s and QBR’s) and cross-functional initiatives
- Helping to plan and organize Product, Design, and Docs team activities during monthly, quarterly, or annual events
- Assisting with talk track development for industry interviews and speaking engagements.
What we’re looking for
- 7+ years of experience in Operations, Strategy, Program Management, or related role within a technology consulting or SaaS technology company.
- Proven ability to audit, clean, and consolidate fragmented processes and tools into clear, centralized systems.
- Experience with the operation and maintenance of SaaS platforms like Enterpret and Linear.
- Strong strategic thinking and communication skills—comfortable developing presentations, talk tracks, and messaging for both internal and external audiences.
- Comfort working independently and cross-functionally at all levels of the organization—especially in fast-moving or ambiguous environments.
- Executive presence and the ability to partner with leadership on high-impact projects and strategic initiatives.
- Curiosity and initiative to explore AI tools for internal efficiency, such as AI-powered bots, auto-triage, or smart documentation.
- Exceptional attention to detail and organizational skills, especially when managing documentation, access, or workflow dependencies.
- A pragmatic communicator who values clarity and async collaboration across time zones.
