Job description

Who We Are Spectro Cloud helps platform teams and cloud providers modernize and manage infrastructure for the AI era without adding more tools or operational complexity.

About the Team

Marketing at Spectro Cloud runs fast, and the systems underneath need to keep up. We're hiring our first dedicated Senior Marketing Operations Manager to own the plumbing that makes everything work — the workflows, the data, the leads, the nurtures, and the reporting that leadership and the board rely on. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role reporting to the Director of Demand Gen.

You'll be the person who makes marketing operations a durable, well-architected system that scales with the business. You'll partner closely with demand generation, field marketing, web, sales, and Rev. Ops, and you'll have a direct line into how pipeline gets built, measured, and reported.

What You'll Do

Lead flow, system architecture, and automation ● Own how leads move through Hub. Spot and into Salesforce end-to-end ● Build and maintain campaign workflows ● Manage Hub. Spot ↔ Salesforce integration, field mapping, and lifecycle stage handoffs ● Add and maintain the properties needed for routing, reporting, and sales visibility ● Troubleshoot sync errors and process breakdowns as they arise Campaign and event operations ● Manage landing pages, forms, and campaign assets in Hub.

Spot ● Upload and process event lead lists; route qualified leads into the right nurture sequences ● QA campaign setup end-to-end — from lead capture through Salesforce sync ● Ensure lead source and channel tracking is consistent, complete, and reportable across trade shows, website, SEO, social, ABM, and paid programs Data quality and system maintenance ● Own the ongoing integrity of marketing data.

● Monitor and resolve sync errors, incomplete records, and misrouted leads ● Investigate individual records when qualification, source, or history is questioned ● Own and enforce a consistent cross-team UTM structure for digital campaigns Lead scoring and lifecycle management ● Maintain and continuously improve the lead scoring and qualification model used by Marketing and Sales ● Ensure lifecycle stage definitions are clear, consistently applied, and aligned with how Sales works leads Nurture operations ● Build and maintain nurture programs in Hub.

Spot, including entry/exit logic and progression rules ● Monitor performance and report on whether programs are actually moving leads forward ● Manage one off email sends for event invitation/follow up etc. Reporting, dashboards, and attribution ● Build the reporting foundation for pipeline sourced and influenced by marketing, by source and channel ● Deliver campaign ROI reporting: target, actual, and attainment ● Maintain separate reporting views for Commercial and Public Sector ● Produce quarterly board-ready reporting, including sourced/attributed vs.

assisted/influenced, open vs. closed-won, and created-in-quarter vs. trailing ● Develop a first version of a multi-touch attribution model, and iterate from there Minimum Qualifications ● 6+ years in marketing operations at a B2B SaaS company, with at least 2–3 years at a senior/lead level in a builder role. ● Long term strategic thinker with a builder mindset.

● Deep, hands-on Hub. Spot expertise — workflows, lifecycle stages, lead scoring, custom properties, sync management, settings. You should be able to open Hub. Spot on day one and know exactly where to look. ● Strong working knowledge of Salesforce and of the Hub. Spot–Salesforce integration specifically (field mapping, sync rules, common failure modes) ● Experience owning lead routing, lifecycle management, and lead scoring end-to-end ● Track record of building nurture programs that actually move pipeline ● Comfort with attribution — multi-touch models, sourced vs.

influenced, and the tradeoffs between them ● Strong data instincts: you notice when numbers don't add up, and you know how to trace them back to the source ● Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills — this role sits at the seam between Marketing, Sales, and Rev. Ops ● Comfortable operating autonomously in a fast-moving, less-than-fully-built environment Preferred Qualifications ● Hands on experience with ABM platforms (6Sense, Demand.

Base), intent data tools, lead routing (Lean. Data) ● Hub. Spot Marketing Software and/or Salesforce Administrator certifications ● Experience building marketing ops from an early stage rather than inheriting a mature stack Location: This role is hybrid in San Jose, CA. We are in office 3x a week, 2x WFH. Remote candidates in the Bay Area and in US will still be considered for this role.

The On-Target Earnings for this role is $142,500-$195,500 + Equity. # 2026-263
