Responsibilities
- Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to gather and analyze tools requirements, using critical thinking to structure and prioritize requests effectively.
- Design and develop custom interfaces in Airtable, ensuring that the tools created are tailored to meet the specific needs of internal teams and external partners.
- Manage the project lifecycle from requirements gathering to deployment, including solution development, feature testing, and performance reporting to ensure tools are enhancing operational efficiency.
- Monitor prototypes and experimental uses cases with data reporting and dashboarding to evaluate whether a process is effective and ready for graduation to scale
- 6+ years of work experience with increasing responsibility in a technology, operations, or consulting environment
- Deep Airtable mastery required: schema design, automations, scripting, interfaces, syncs, and Airtable AI — knows Airtable's constraints cold (record/table/base caps, field-length limits, automation run quotas, script timeouts, data-type quirks); can reverse-engineer large, undocumented bases and complex workflows quickly; experience managing and executing large cross-functional projects in the technology/operational space; familiarity with Salesforce, Retool, or similar CRM/ops platforms is a strong plus
- Strong data architecture instincts: designs scalable bases, syncs, and data flows from the start; maps data in/out of Airtable cleanly; knows when data should live in Airtable vs. a warehouse, OpsStream, or Salesforce; hands-on experience identifying use cases, onboarding teams, and providing training and technical support
- Analytical toolkit - Modeling and data manipulation in Excel/sheets is critical, SQL is a bonus
- Sound judgment on graduation pathways — knows when to prototype in Airtable vs. push to engineering vs. graduate to scaled systems; security-conscious (permissions, service accounts, secrets handling, API hygiene); domain familiarity with sales pipelines, CRM, media operations, QA/QMS, or vetting and licensing workflows a plus; confidence, resilience, and self-sufficiency in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
- Exceptional collaborator and influencer with the ability to work across functions and geographies and with partners at differing levels of seniority
- Excellent written and oral communication skills
- Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent; Masters a plus
