The role

We are looking for a hands-on Senior Marketing Automation Engineer to join our Marketing Automation team.

You will own what you build, from design to production, and help shape how the team builds software.

Above all, we are looking for people who will make HelloFresh better. We believe there are many different ways of developing skills and we love diverse experiences! So even if you don’t “tick all the boxes” but think you’d thrive in this role, we would really like to learn more about you.

• Automate marketing work: Build data workflows and automations that replace manual, repetitive work for our marketing teams.
• Build internal tools and reporting: Create the tools our marketers use every day.
• Keep things reliable: Test, monitor and troubleshoot our systems so they keep working as volumes and use cases grow.
• Raise the bar: Shape architecture and engineering standards, review code, mentor other engineers, and work closely with Marketing and platform teams.

Soft skills

• Ownership mindset: You take work from idea to production and stay accountable for it.
• Business sense: You turn business needs into simple, effective technical solutions.
