Description du poste

Meet Domaine, the world's largest independent Shopify design and development partner, formed by the union of Half Helix and Tomorrow. We are a team of commerce experts dedicated to creating, building, and growing beloved brands. As pioneers and not just participants in our industry, we are inspired to write, break, and re-write the rules for a new generation of commerce.

Domaine is a full-service ecommerce and marketing agency. Our CRM department leads Klaviyo-centric lifecycle marketing, ESP migrations, and CRM strategy for DTC and retail brands.

The Role

The CRM Lead Specialist owns production quality and delivery across Domaine's entire CRM client roster — migration projects and ongoing retainers, creative and technical work alike. This role sits between our Specialists and our Strategists/Team Lead: managing a small team of Specialists day to day, holding the line on QA and execution standards across every deliverable that goes out the door, and pushing the department forward on AI-forward tooling and innovation in CRM.

Reports to: Director of CRM

Direct reports: 3–4 Specialists

Location: Fully remote; must maintain EST working hours

What You'll Do

Production Management, Across the Board

• Own production oversight across all CRM clients — migration projects and retainers alike — spanning both creative and technical execution.
• Serve as the checkpoint between Specialist output and what reaches Strategists and clients: nothing ships without passing through your review.
• Coordinate production workflows across accounts to keep delivery on time and on standard, flagging capacity or timeline risk early.
• Own deep QA on all deliverables the Specialist team produces — builds, segmentation, automation, deployment, copy and design implementation — not spot checks, full review.
• Set and enforce execution standards and documentation practices consistently across Creative and Technical tracks.
• Act as the escalation point for complex technical or production issues that exceed individual Specialist capacity.

People Management

• Directly manage 3–4 CRM Specialists across Creative and Technical tracks: performance, day-to-day workload, and development.
• Run regular 1:1s with coaching and feedback tailored to each Specialist's discipline.
• Identify skill gaps, build development plans, and support onboarding of new Specialists.
• Serve as first escalation point for Specialist-level blockers and quality issues.
• Own Specialist team billable utilization, with an 80% target across direct reports.
• Monitor utilization weekly; proactively address over- or under-utilization across accounts and individuals.
• Manage staffing allocation across client accounts and partner with the Team Lead on resourcing and headcount planning.
• Champion AI-forward tooling and workflows across CRM execution — identifying where AI can raise quality, speed, or consistency in production.
• Drive innovation in CRM production practice: new approaches to segmentation, automation, QA, and lifecycle programming.
• Evaluate and pilot new tools and methods with the team, then codify what works into standard practice.

Platform Fluency & Certification

• Own staying current on new Klaviyo product features and releases, and train the CRM team on them as they roll out.
• Take on new ESP certifications (starting with Braze) to expand the team's platform coverage beyond Klaviyo.
• Translate platform and product updates into changes to team practice, standards, and training.

Process & Standards

• Own and evolve execution playbooks, build standards, and QA processes across both Specialist tracks.
• Drive adoption of best practices across ESP/SMS platforms, automation logic, and production workflows.
• Document repeatable processes and contribute to the team's knowledge base.

What You'll Bring

• Deep, hands-on expertise in Klaviyo-centric CRM execution; fluency across ESP/SMS platforms and migration methodologies (Cordial-to-Klaviyo and similar).
• A track record of producing and QA'ing complex email/SMS builds, segmentation, and automations at a high bar.
• Experience managing or mentoring specialists/producers, ideally across both creative and technical disciplines.
• Comfort working with AI tools in production workflows, with genuine curiosity about where AI changes how CRM work gets done.
• Strong organizational skills — able to hold oversight across multiple client accounts and production streams simultaneously.
• Clear, proactive communicator; comfortable as an escalation point and cross-functional liaison.
• Agency experience across DTC/retail clients preferred.

How This Role Works With Others

With Strategists: Partners on production feasibility and timeline management; acts as the quality checkpoint before Specialist output reaches strategy or the client.

With the Team Lead: Manages day-to-day Specialist team operations — workload, utilization, performance, and development — reducing operational load on the Team Lead; escalates team-level trends and partners on resourcing and hiring.

With the Lead Designer: Coordinates production handoffs between execution and design; partners on QA from design spec through final deployment.

PERKS & BENEFITS

• Competitive Healthcare with Dental & Vision
• Retirement savings plan with employer matching
• Competitive PTO policy with paid time off at end of year
• Remote-first culture
• Home office stipend
• Continued education and personal development opportunities
