Summary

We’re hiring an outbound email specialist who can plan campaigns, write persuasive copy, and run the technical stack that makes those emails land. This person sets up domains, authenticates them, warms them, monitors reputation, and keeps deliverability high while scaling volume. They’ll partner with sales and ops, but they own outcomes: booked meetings and clean inbox placement.

Deliverables
  • Build a multi-domain cold email infrastructure that reaches high inbox rates across multiple sender identities
  • Plan and run outbound sequences for different ICPs with tight targeting, strong hooks, and plain-text clarity
  • Maintain sender reputation through list hygiene, throttling, warmups, rotation, and smart sending windows
  • Track, report, and improve key metrics weekly: delivery, open, click, positive reply, meeting rate, lead quality
  • A/B test offers, angles, subject lines, CTAs, and sending patterns; ship learnings every week
  • Build and maintain a clean data layer: sourcing, enrichment, de-dupe, verification, consent records
  • Create reusable playbooks so the team can repeat results without you holding their hand
  • Hard requirements
  • Proven cold email wins at B2B volume
  • Deep deliverability skills: custom tracking domains, SPF DKIM DMARC BIMI, aligned Return-Path, ARC, rDNS, HELO, List-Unsubscribe, feedback loops, TLS
  • Domain and mailbox warmup at scale using tools plus manual controls; knows when to pause, rotate, or rest
  • Comfortable with cloud providers and ESPs: Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, AWS SES or Mailgun, plus mailbox management via IMAP and API
  • Strong data chops: Clay or Apollo level sourcing, Clearbit or equivalent enrichment, NeverBounce or equivalent verification
  • Writes clear, simple copy that sounds human and cuts through noise
  • SQL or spreadsheet fluency for cohort analysis and lead scoring
  • Understands privacy rules and sends responsibly
  • Nice to have
  • Experience running multiple brands and country-specific domains
  • Familiar with AI-assisted personalization that doesn’t look robotic
  • Can spin up simple webhook automations and ETL scripts
