Meet Your Future Neighbors As the Marketing Technology & Operations Manager, you will own the data, pipelines, and tooling that power our lifecycle, SMB, and Nextdoor Ads Manager marketing programs. You'll work within an established MarTech stack — Segment, Iterable, Salesforce, Databricks, and Workato - helping ensure clean, reliable data flows that Marketing and RevOps teams depend on to drive engagement and revenue. This is an individual contributor (IC) role - you will be a hands-on practitioner and focused on technical execution. This role combines hands-on MarTech ownership with cross-functional product thinking. You'll translate marketing and GTM use cases into events, traits, and audiences; partner with Data Platform and Customer Experience on Kafka and Databricks-based pipelines; and ensure our CDP and lifecycle platform remain healthy, usable, and compliant at scale. At Nextdoor, we operate in an AI-first environment and expect every team member to actively use AI tools as part of their workflow. We aren't looking for prompt engineers; we’re looking for people who use tools like Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT, and Glean to challenge their own thinking and take full ownership of AI-assisted outputs. We also offer a warm and inclusive work environment that embraces a hybrid employment model, blending an in office presence and work from home experience for our valued employees. The hiring team will go over these expectations with you if you are being considered for a role near one of our offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, New York, and London. The Impact You’ll Make You will be a key contributor to our MarTech data and activation work - helping turn signals from product and CRM systems into reliable traits, events, and audiences that support email journeys, advertiser lifecycle programs, and first-party audience products. Your work will directly contribute to reducing time-to-launch for lifecycle campaigns — replacing slow, DS-queue-dependent workflows with faster, self-serve audience activation and enabling the data reliability that underpins measurable revenue and engagement growth.
