Senior Manager, Partner Lifecycle Marketing

This is an in-person role that requires performing all job responsibilities from either the Phoenix, AZ, Seattle, WA, or Miami, FL office locations. Candidates must be based within a 50-mile commuting distance of the office and able to be physically present in the office 4 days a week.

Partners and agents represent a strategic growth lever for Opendoor. We're looking for someone who combines strategic ownership with hands-on execution to build and scale our Partner Lifecycle marketing programs — shaping how we engage, enable, and retain the real estate professionals who drive a meaningful portion of our transaction volume. This role operates with a high degree of autonomy and is expected to identify opportunities, set priorities, and drive partner lifecycle initiatives forward in ambiguous environments.

As Senior Manager, Partner Lifecycle Marketing, you'll execute the end-to-end CRM strategy for our partner channel — from agent acquisition and onboarding through education, activation, and long-term retention. You'll leverage AI-powered personalization, multi-channel orchestration, and behavioral segmentation to create relevant, high-converting experiences that drive partner engagement and referrals at scale.

This role combines strategic ownership with hands-on execution, and is responsible for defining, evolving, and scaling partner lifecycle programs over time. You'll work closely with the Senior Lifecycle Marketing Lead to shape lifecycle strategy and translate it into scalable programs and campaigns. You'll have the resources to test bold ideas and the opportunity to build marketing programs that leverage cutting-edge AI capabilities. If you thrive in fast-paced environments and want to work at the intersection of lifecycle marketing and AI — this role is for you.

• A minimum of 5+ years in lifecycle, CRM, or partner marketing (B2B/B2B2C environments) with a proven track record building multi-channel programs that drive measurable business outcomes
• Hands-on expertise with Braze, Iterable, or similar marketing automation platforms — you can build journeys, segmentation logic, and dynamic content independently
• Strong technical skills (HTML, SQL, audience building, analytics platforms) and experience with AI-powered personalization and behavioral automation
