Full Job Description

About Customer.io Over 8,000 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.

Ownership and autonomy: You identify what needs to be done, build it, and maintain it — without waiting to be told. When a team is blocked, you step in. Range without ego: You can hold a credible technical conversation with our CTO and turn around and explain the same system clearly to a finance manager. You adapt your communication to the room. Cross-functional curiosity: You actively look for where operational fricti
