Marketing Automations Specialist

🌍 We’re making security suck less for developers.

Security tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest.

We’re taking on legacy security tools teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place.

Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank and a long runway ahead. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter.

We're looking for a Marketing Automations Specialist who lives and breathes campaign execution. You'll work within our HubSpot setup - alongside a dedicated CRM owner - to build and run the nurture programs, lifecycle campaigns, and email workflows that move prospects through the funnel. You'll work closely with the Marketing, Sales, Customer Success and DataOps teams to make sure the right message reaches the right person at the right time.

• Create clear Notion documentation for systems and processes, and train internal teams and new joiners so they use HubSpot correctly and consistently.
