Marketing Expert — Marketing Operations (AI Agent Environments) | $60-$100/hr Remote
Overview
Paradigm builds realistic simulated marketing workplaces that test how AI agents handle real marketing work. You will shape the Marketing Operations environments, from task briefs to planted defects. The work draws on your actual experience with tools like Salesforce, Asana, and Zendesk. Your judgment defines what a strong practitioner would catch and what a weaker one would miss.
What You'll Do6
- 1Write task briefs that mirror real marketing operations work and describe the planted problem each brief is designed to expose.
- 2Define the documents, dashboards, personas, and tool states needed to make a scenario feel like a live marketing org.
- 3Author the reference solution and the scoring criteria that separate a correct answer from one that looks reasonable but misses the issue.
- 4Score AI agent attempts against your own standard and explain why each response passes or fails.
- 5Build scenarios that include messy data diagnosis, prioritization tradeoffs, campaign operations, QA and reconciliation, triage, reporting, and multi-tool orchestration.
- 6Design tasks for lead routing, workflow design, campaign execution, agency transitions, and cross-stack orchestration.
Requirements5
- 1Hands-on marketing operations experience, including building routing rules, workflows, and reports yourself.
- 2Working fluency with a CRM such as Salesforce, a marketing automation platform, a project tracker like Asana or Linear, and a support tool like Zendesk or Intercom.
- 3Prior experience building AI training environments, reinforcement learning environments, or simulated case studies is a significant plus.
- 4Rubric Academy or Rubric Bootcamp certification is a strong plus.
- 5Clear written reasoning that explains why a decision is right.
Who Should Apply
The ideal candidate is a marketing operations practitioner who has built routing rules and campaign workflows in a real CRM and can articulate why a decision is correct. Someone who only oversaw vendors or configured tools at a surface level will struggle with scenario design. Submissions often get rejected when the applicant cannot describe the tradeoffs a strong operator makes under ambiguous data. A vague written explanation of a task outcome is another common reason candidates score low on fit.
Salary Insight
The contract pays $60-$100 per hour. The midpoint matches senior marketing operations talent with broad tool fluency, while the upper end typically requires experience in AI evaluation or simulation content.
