WHAT YOU WILL WORK ON
Proactive monitoring: Stay ahead of problems by monitoring infrastructure health across Postmaster tools and internal dashboards; read signals early and act before small issues become incidents.
Lead investigations: Dig into logs when blocks occur, identify root causes, and work directly with ISPs and anti-spam organizations to drive resolutions.
Abuse management: Monitor and act on abuse signals, handle FBL reports and spam trap hits, and mitigate phishing or spoofing attempts.
Protect platform reputation: Identify accounts that put our infrastructure at risk and work across teams to address them effectively.
Identify trends: Develop a sharp eye for patterns across the platform and turn those insights into proactive measures that protect deliverability at scale.
Customer advocacy: Guide customers through authentication setup, list hygiene, and best practices, and conduct audits to catch risks before they escalate.
Knowledge building: Document processes and findings so the team's collective expertise is captured and accessible.
WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU
2–4 years of hands-on experience in email deliverability, ideally within an ESP or high-volume sending environment
Solid understanding of SMTP, DNS records, and email authentication protocols (SPF, DKIM, and DMARC should feel like second nature)

Familiarity with major blocklists and the delisting process. You know how to navigate removal requests, communicate with blocklist operators, and resolve listings efficiently to minimize impact on senders
An analytical mindset with the ability to dig through logs and data to find the "why" behind a deliverability issue
Strong communication skills to explain complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical customers
The ability to manage multiple open issues, prioritize independently, and follow through
Based in Europe, Africa, or Latin America
