About Customer.io

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 detail-oriented operator who thrives on turning messy processes into streamlined, scalable workflows. You're technically curious—comfortable learning new tools and platforms—and energized by solving operational puzzles. You communicate clearly, work well across teams, and take pride in making others more effective. You bring a bias for action, an ownership mindset, and a genuine curiosity about how AI and automation can make teams more efficient.

What you'll do

• Audit, document, and improve product, design, and documentation workflows, identifying bottlenecks and opportunities to scale
• Execute workflow modernization initiatives using no-code/low-code tools (e.g., Zapier, n8n), driving adoption across teams
• Serve as the primary administrator for product operations tools (e.g., Enterpret, Linear), ensuring data quality and consistent usage
• Consolidate and operationalize product feedback across Sales, Support, and Customer Experience, generating actionable insights
• Build and deploy Slack-based automation and AI tools to answer common product questions and reduce manual work
• Establish and maintain operational rhythms for Product Managers, including backlog management and planning cadences
• Improve documentation hygiene and discoverability across Notion and related systems, including archiving legacy content
• Partner with Product, Design, and Docs leaders on cross-functional initiatives, planning, and communications
• Support product reporting and executive updates by compiling metrics, insights, and operational data

What we're looking for

• 3+ years of experience in product operations, business operations, program management, or a similar operational role
• Hands-on experience administering tools like Jira, Notion, Confluence, Asana, or similar workflow and documentation platforms
• Familiarity with product feedback tools (e.g., Enterpret, Productboard, or similar) is a plus
• Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
• Comfort with data—able to pull, organize, and present information effectively
• Interest in AI tools and no-code platforms for automation (experience with Kapa.ai, Zapier, or similar is a plus)
• Proactive, self-directed, and comfortable operating with some ambiguity
• A collaborative mindset and genuine desire to make teams more effective
