We’re looking for a Customer marketing and adoption Manager who thrives at the intersection of data, automation, and customer experience. You’ll own the strategy and execution of scalable programs that turn activated customers into power users—driving measurable adoption uplift across thousands of accounts through intelligent segmentation, lifecycle campaigns, and in-product experiences.
This is a high-impact role for someone who gets energized by hard KPIs, loves building automated workflows, and can turn messy customer data into actionable insights. You’ll be responsible for moving customers up the value ladder—from activation to deep adoption—using a mix of digital channels, product-led tactics, and targeted engagement programs.
Your performance will be measured on:
Adoption uplift by license tier – driving customers from basic usage to advanced use cases
Feature activation rates – getting specific capabilities into production
User engagement health – tracking active usage across customer segments
Retention and expansion metrics – reducing churn and identifying upsell opportunities
Dashboard clarity – providing real-time visibility into program performance
Design and execute automated customer journeys across email, in-product messaging, and digital channels to drive activation and feature adoption at scale
Segment customers by license tier, usage behavior, and firmographic data using tools like HubSpot, Mixpanel, and ZoomInfo
Create targeted campaigns for different personas (IT, facilities, line of business) to drive use-case-specific adoption
Build in-product experiences (walkthroughs, tooltips, nudges) using platforms like Pendo, Appcues, or WalkMe to guide self-serve adoption
Analyze customer behavior data to identify drop-off points, engagement patterns, and expansion opportunities
Build and maintain dashboards that track adoption metrics, engagement health, and program ROI
Synthesize data from multiple sources (product analytics, CRM, marketing automation) to inform campaign strategy and segmentation
Use AI-based workflow tools (e.g., KNIME, HubSpot workflows) to automate data enrichment, scoring, and segmentation
Partner with Product Marketing to translate features into compelling, value-led customer narratives
Work with Product Management and UX teams to shape in-product guidance and contextual messaging
Coordinate with ABM, Demand Gen, and Customer Success to align on lifecycle strategy and account prioritization
Team up with Design and Content to create educational assets, tutorials, and knowledge hub content
Launch webinars, campaigns, and enablement programs that spotlight high-impact use cases and drive feature discovery
Test, measure, and iterate on messaging, timing, and channel mix to improve conversion and engagement
Own end-to-end execution of lifecycle programs—from ideation to reporting—ensuring programs are delivered on time and on target
4–6 years in customer marketing, lifecycle marketing, product marketing, or growth roles at a B2B SaaS company
Proven track record building and scaling automated marketing programs using tools like HubSpot, Marketo, or similar platforms
Hands-on experience with digital adoption platforms (Pendo, WalkMe, Appcues) to enable in-product guidance and self-serve experiences
Strong analytical skills with experience using product analytics tools (Mixpanel, Amplitude, Heap) to segment users and inform campaign decisions
Data synthesis expertise – comfortable working across CRM, product analytics, and marketing automation tools to build unified customer views
Experience with ABM tools (ZoomInfo, 6sense, Demandbase) to identify and engage target personas within customer accounts
Proficiency with workflow automation and AI-based tools (KNIME, HubSpot Operations Hub, Zapier)
Ability to build dashboards and reports using tools like Tableau, Looker, or similar BI platforms
Comfortable working with SQL or no-code data tools to query and analyze customer behavior
Strong understanding of segmentation, scoring, and lifecycle stage modeling
Content strategy mindset – able to simplify complex technical concepts into clear, actionable messaging tailored to different personas
Customer-centric thinking – deeply curious about what drives adoption and how to remove friction from the customer journey
Bias for action – comfortable building programs from the ground up in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
Collaborative and cross-functional – able to align stakeholders across Marketing, Product, Sales, and Customer Success
Detail-oriented with strong project management skills – able to manage multiple campaigns and initiatives simultaneously
Excellent writing and communication skills – capable of crafting compelling copy and presenting insights to leadership
You’ll be the engine behind customer adoption at scale. Rather than relying on 1:1 support, you’ll architect scalable, data-driven programs that help thousands of customers unlock value—turning them into advocates and identifying expansion opportunities. You’ll have the autonomy to experiment, the data to prove impact, and the cross-functional support to execute at speed.
If you’re someone who loves turning data into strategy, building automated experiences, and seeing your work drive measurable business outcomes—this role is for you.
