Ironclad is looking for a Director of Marketing Technology and Operations to lead the team that powers how our marketing engine runs — from the technology we use to the processes we build to the data we trust. This is a strategic and hands-on role for someone who can navigate legacy systems with confidence while driving the organization toward AI-native ways of working.

You'll own the full marketing technology stack and the operational processes that support every stage of the funnel: brand awareness, demand generation, pipeline creation, and community engagement. You'll partner closely with marketing leadership, sales, revenue ops, and engineering to ensure our systems, data, and workflows are aligned and scalable.

This individual will report to the Chief Marketing & Strategy Officer.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Technology & Infrastructure

• Own and evolve the marketing technology stack, including MAP, CRM integrations, attribution tooling, ABM platforms, website, and campaign management systems
• Maintain deep expertise in legacy and established tools (Marketo, Salesforce, etc.) while proactively identifying gaps and modernization opportunities
• Build and maintain a reliable data foundation: clean lead records, consistent attribution, and trustworthy reporting across the funnel
• Partner closely with the finance team to support pipeline analysis and reporting

AI & Automation

• Lead the team's adoption of AI-powered tools and workflows across functions
• Design and deploy agents and automations that reduce manual work, accelerate execution, and improve personalization at scale
• Stay ahead of the curve on emerging AI capabilities relevant to marketing, from content operations to campaign optimization to audience intelligence, and translate those into real working systems

Operations & Process

• Design and enforce scalable processes for campaign execution, lead management, funnel operations, and community engagement
• Define and own the operational infrastructure that connects top-of-funnel brand programs through to closed-won pipeline
• Partner with demand gen, content, and field teams to ensure operational readiness for campaigns and launches

Team & Leadership

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of GTM engineers and Ops specialists
• Set team priorities, own the ops roadmap, and communicate progress and tradeoffs to marketing leadership
• Serve as the operational backbone for the marketing org — the person others come to when something needs to get done right

Requirements

• 8+ years in marketing operations, with at least 2 years in a leadership role
• Deep hands-on experience with enterprise marketing technology stacks — you've built, migrated, and maintained these systems, not just managed vendors. Preference for experience with Marketo, Salesforce, 6sense, Optimizely, GA4, Glean.
• Demonstrated experience implementing AI tools, automations, or agents in a marketing context — you've shipped things, not just explored them
• Strong understanding of the full marketing funnel and how ops connects each stage: brand → demand → pipeline → retention/community
• Fluency in marketing data: attribution models, funnel metrics, lead scoring, campaign reporting, and CRM hygiene
• Excellent cross-functional communicator — able to translate technical tradeoffs into business decisions for non-technical stakeholders
• Bias toward action, high ownership, and comfort operating in ambiguity
