Mission

Own technical delivery across your accounts. Design the stack, build the hard parts, direct the technical team, and keep projects on schedule and profitable.

Why this role exists

Our clients are spread across North America and Europe, but our technical bench is not. European accounts wait a day for answers and North American accounts compete for the same people. This role adds senior technical capacity in a time zone that covers both.

The job in practice

McGaw is a customer data and revenue operations consultancy. Clients come to us with traffic, tools, and data, and no system connecting them. We find where revenue leaks across acquisition, conversion, and retention, then we fix it with our hands on the keyboards.

The CDP is the center of most of our work. We build on Segment, Hightouch, and RudderStack, chosen per client. We work across the full client stack, not just individual systems or specific vendors.

Our clients are in North America and Europe. Your portfolio will be a mix.

Month 1. Learn our clients, cadence, and tooling. Shadow live accounts. Run QA on other people's work to see our standard from the inside. Start owning tasks on one account.

Months 2 and 3. Take technical ownership of your first accounts. Build the roadmaps. Run the sprints. You still have support on client calls.

Months 4 to 6. Run delivery independently across accounts. Direct the resources assigned to you. Start writing specs for new business.

After 6 months. You are a technical authority across the portfolio. You lead discovery, scope new work, and set the standard new hires learn from.

What is hard? Accounts run at the same time and the work is billable by the hour, so time tracking is not optional. A portfolio across two continents splits your day in half. You will sometimes be the only person awake when a pipeline breaks.
