Marketing AI Engineer (Full-Time, 4 Month Contract )

About the Role

We are looking for a Marketing AI Engineer to sit at the intersection of marketing strategy and cutting-edge AI technology. This 4-month contract role is responsible for accelerating adoption of AI within the marketing team by building, managing, and optimizing AI-powered tools and workflows to scale traditional marketing processes. This role will report to the Sr. Director, Marketing Operations.

About You

You are a driven, results-oriented individual who thrives at the intersection of technology and marketing. You have hands-on experience with large language models and AI tooling, and you understand how to translate those capabilities into real business value for a marketing team. You are as comfortable setting strategy as you are getting into the technical details — and you love taking down AI deliverables and enabling others to do their best work with AI on a daily cadence.

What You'll Do

• Backlog Delivery: Deliver a steady cadence of milestones from marketing's AI-first backlog, balancing both strategic longer-term projects and tactical short-term priorities.
• Role-Based AI Goals: Help define and track role-based AI utilization goals across the marketing organization, ensuring measurable progress and accountability.
• MCP Connector Development: Manage the development and maintenance of MCP connectors across different marketing applications, ensuring reliable integrations and optimized query performance for each connector.
• Skills & Governance: Set up centralized AI-based "skills" and governance frameworks for marketing AI usage, establishing standards and guardrails for how the team interacts with AI tools and for the Azul as a whole to adhere to marketing standards.
• Enablement & Office Hours: Lead enablement efforts and host daily office hours to support the marketing team with troubleshooting, onboarding to new tools, and answering questions.
• Best Practice Sharing: Share best practices across the team on Skills, Prompts, and Agentic workflows, fostering a culture of continuous AI learning and improvement.
• Agentic Workflow Design: Design, build, and iterate on agentic AI workflows that automate and accelerate marketing processes across all marketing disciplines.
• RAG Customization: Explore and implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) customization where applicable to enhance the relevance and accuracy of AI outputs (nice to have).

What You'll Bring

• Good understanding of marketing principles and familiarity with MarTech tools and ecosystems.
• Background in computer science or data engineering preferred.
• Strong hands-on experience with Claude or other large language models (LLMs).
• Experience or solid working knowledge of Model Context Protocols (MCPs).
• Understanding of marketing automation and integration platforms such as Zapier.
• Driven, results-oriented mindset with a track record of delivering in fast-moving environments.
• Strong communicator who can translate AI capabilities into practical value for non-technical stakeholders.
