WHAT YOU’LL DO:

Architect AI-Powered Demand Generation Systems

  • Design and implement signal-based automation workflows using Clay, Claude, and Jasper that identify buying signals beyond traditional intent data (hiring patterns, tech stack changes, regulatory triggers, executive movements)

  • Use AI to analyze engagement patterns and predict next-best actions for prospects at scale
  • Build personalized messaging frameworks powered by AI that speak to specific difficulties based on firmographic, behavioral, and signal data

  • Use AI to analyze paid media performance data and recommend optimization strategies for messaging, creative, and landing pages
