About Customer.io
Over 7,500 companies — from scrappy startups to global brands — use our platform to send billions of emails, push notifications, in-app messages, and SMS every day. Customer.io powers automated communication that people actually want to receive. We help teams send smarter, more relevant messages using real-time behavioral data.
About you
You’re a systems-minded operator who loves bringing order to chaos. You have strong product intuition, a bias for action, and a knack for turning fragmented tools and processes into streamlined, scalable workflows. You’re energized by solving operational challenges, particularly in product-led SaaS environments, and you’re curious about how AI can enhance internal efficiency. Whether it’s rolling up your sleeves to audit tools or designing smarter workflows, you bring clarity, precision, and an ownership mindset to everything you do.
What you’ll do
- Lead the consolidation of product feedback and tooling into Cycle, including mapping inflows from CSMs, Marketing, Support, and spreadsheets.
- Set up and maintain Cycle as the system of record for product input—owning taxonomy, permissions, job-to-be-done tagging, and cross-functional onboarding.
- Build and deploy Slack-based AI bots to answer common internal product questions (e.g., Switchboard-style assistance for fast lookups).
- Audit, document, and modernize existing product workflows (e.g., bug triage in Zapier), identifying opportunities for AI augmentation or automation.
- Collaborate with Product and Design leads to archive and clean up legacy content in Notion—removing stale docs and improving findability.
- Serve as a go-to partner for product tooling support, documentation hygiene, and scalable workflow development across the org.
What we're looking for
- 3+ years of experience in Product Operations, Program Management, or a related role within a SaaS or product-led company.
- Proven ability to audit, clean, and consolidate fragmented processes and tools into clear, centralized systems.
- Experience with product tooling like Cycle, Zapier, Notion, and Slack integrations; familiarity with jobs-to-be-done frameworks is a plus.
- Comfort working independently and cross-functionally—especially in fast-moving or ambiguous environments.
- Curiosity and initiative to explore AI tools for internal efficiency, such as AI-powered bots, auto-triage, or smart documentation.
- Exceptional attention to detail and organizational skills, especially when managing documentation, access, or workflow dependencies.
- A pragmatic communicator who values clarity and async collaboration across time zones.
Compensation & Benefits
We believe in transparency. Starting agreement for this role is $60/hr-$70/hr USD (or equivalent in local currency) depending on experience and subject to market rate adjustment.

Verify Employer Thoroughly
Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.
Never Pay to Get a Job
Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.
Safeguard Your Personal Information
Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.
Scrutinize Communication & Interviews
Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.
Beware of Unrealistic Offers
If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.
Insist on a Formal Contract
Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
