What you'll do
We're looking for a high-ownership, data-informed AI CRM Analyst with 2+ years of hands-on experience in startup or tech environments to help build, optimize, and scale our customer lifecycle programs across Latin America.. Sitting at the intersection of Growth, Lifecycle Marketing, Data, and Tech, you will own lifecycle initiatives end-to-end — from identifying opportunities and defining audiences to building, launching, measuring, and iterating behavior-triggered interventions.

- Build AI-powered CRM workflows: use AI and automation tools (e.g., n8n, Claude, Make) to automate repetitive operations, accelerate analysis and campaign development, and prototype new lifecycle capabilities that improve team scalability.
- Design and run lifecycle experiments: develop hypotheses and test audiences, messaging, channels, timing, incentives, and lifecycle interventions to improve customer and business outcomes.
- Identify lifecycle opportunities through data: analyze customer behavior, product usage, and funnel performance to identify high-potential audiences, adoption gaps, and opportunities to improve activation, retention, and product usage.
- Maintain data & operational quality: collaborate with Product, Data, and Customer Happiness teams to ensure clean event tracking, error-free campaign setup, and compliant messaging lists.
