The Opportunity

Seamless has historically been a sales-led company. Every customer, from an individual user to a large enterprise account, has moved through a sales-assisted motion.

As we continue scaling, we are building a stronger product-led and self-serve growth engine that allows lower-touch users to activate, convert, expand, and succeed more efficiently, while allowing Sales to focus on larger, higher-value opportunities.

We are looking for aDirector, Lifecycle Marketing - PLG to help build that engine.

This is not a traditional lifecycle email role. This is a builder role for someone who understands that lifecycle marketing is the connective tissue between Marketing, Product, Sales, Customer Success, Revenue Operations, Data, and the customer experience.

You will own the journeys, systems, automation, segmentation, and product-led growth motions that help turn interest into activation, activation into revenue, and revenue into long-term expansion.

The right person has deep experience working across freemium, free trial, self-serve, sales-assisted, and hybrid PLG motions. You know how to identify friction in the customer journey, use product and behavioral data to prioritize opportunities, and partner with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Revenue Operations to improve the moments that drive conversion.

You will have the autonomy to assess what exists, identify the highest-impact opportunities, build scalable programs, and help shape how Seamless evolves from a primarily sales-led motion into a more efficient product-led and sales-assisted revenue engine.

What You'll Own

Own the end-to-end lifecycle and PLG strategy across prospect, free user, trial, customer, expansion, and retention journeys.
Build lifecycle programs that improve freemium, free trial, self-serve, sales-assisted, and hybrid PLG conversion.
Improve the path from signup to value by identifying friction, simplifying user journeys, and creating timely lifecycle touchpoints across email, in-app, SMS, and other channels.
Strengthen segmentation, lead scoring, product-qualified signals, routing logic, and behavioral triggers so Sales receives higher-quality opportunities at the right time.
Partner with Product, Engineering, UX, Data, Sales, Customer Success, Revenue Operations, Demand Generation, and Product Marketing to improve the full customer journey.
Build onboarding and engagement programs that reduce time-to-value, increase meaningful product adoption, and improve retention.
Create documented workflows, reusable playbooks, lifecycle maps, testing plans, and AI-first automations that can scale with the business.
Track lifecycle impact through activation, trial-to-paid conversion, free-to-paid conversion, self-serve revenue, MQL/PQL quality, pipeline influence, expansion, retention, and churn reduction.
Use experimentation, customer insight, and product behavior to continuously improve messaging, timing, segmentation, CTAs, journey logic, and product-led conversion.

Your Mandate

Over the next 12 to 18 months, you will help Seamless:

Build a high-performing lifecycle and customer engagement engine.
Improve freemium, free trial, self-serve, and product-led conversion.
Increase activation and reduce time-to-value for new users.

Manage lifecycle automation infrastructure, including tools such as Customer.io, HubSpot, Claude, N8N, audience segmentation, behavioral triggers, workflow logic, and documentation.
Partner with Product Marketing and Demand Generation to align lifecycle programs with acquisition strategy, messaging, positioning, conversion paths, and revenue goals.
Monitor performance across activation, engagement, conversion, trial-to-paid, free-to-paid, self-serve revenue, retention, expansion, MQL velocity, PQL quality, and pipeline influence.
