Faire is a technology wholesale platform connecting independent retailers globally with suppliers. The company is seeking a Marketing Engineer to build internal systems that enable the marketing organization to operate independently. Role Overview: This is a full engineering role embedded within the marketing organization. You will write production code across Faire's codebase, own services end-to-end, participate in on-call rotations, and integrate AI agents into marketing workflows with appropriate evaluation frameworks and monitoring. Success is measured by capabilities the marketing organization gains that it previously lacked. Key Responsibilities: - Design, build, review, deploy, and monitor production services end-to-end - Ship code to Faire's production codebase meeting engineering standards, with code review by engineers - Work directly with lifecycle, paid, brand, and product marketing teams to identify patterns in requests and build solutions that eliminate recurring asks - Implement AI agents into marketing workflows with evaluation harnesses, monitoring, and defined failure modes before customer exposure - Transform ambiguous requirements into scoped, prioritized plans and communicate tradeoffs to non-technical stakeholders Initial Focus Areas: 1. Marketing-led landing pages: Own the end-to-end surface for blog, newsroom, content, and experimentation teams. Evaluate vendor vs. in-house solutions and potentially build a self-serve, agentic landing page service to accelerate time-to-market. 2. Self-serve audiences and attributes: Enable marketers to independently sync audiences with paid platforms and lifecycle systems. Determine data contracts, enforcement mechanisms, and self-serve interfaces. Other projects on the radar include learning loops for generative ad assets, infrastructure improvements for paid campaign intelligence feeds, and real-time recommendation management across lifecycle and paid channels. Tech Stack: Kotlin, Java, JUnit, Hibernate, Guice, Jersey, React, Next.js, HTTP, JSON, Protocol Buffers, MySQL, CockroachDB, AWS. Requirements: Required: - 4+ years shipping and owning production software in or adjacent to marketing, growth, or GTM organizations - Proficiency in Faire's production stack: Kotlin, Java, JUnit, Hibernate, Guice, Jersey, React, Next.js, HTTP, JSON, Protocol Buffers, MySQL, CockroachDB, AWS - Strong SQL skills and warehouse comfort to instrument metrics and inform build decisions - Deep expertise in at least one marketing platform: CDP/ESP (Braze, Iterable, Segment, Hightouch), attribution/analytics platform, CMS, or ad platform API - Daily use of AI coding agents and production experience deploying LLMs with evals, monitoring, and defined failure modes - Track record of owning systems end-to-end including on-call responsibilities and shipping to non-technical users who operate independently Preferred: - Marketplace or two-sided e-commerce experience - Production experience with Kotlin/Java backend and JavaScript/TypeScript with React/Next.js frontend - Experience replacing martech vendors with in-house builds and understanding the cost implications - Hands-on experience with Braze, Hightouch, Google Ads, or Meta
