Opportunity for advancement

Impact Scale is a fast-growing fintech and performance marketing company operating at the intersection of lead generation, automation, and outbound scalability. We move fast, operate at serious volume, and rely on precision infrastructure to reach our audiences. We're looking for a technically advanced email specialist who can help us maximize inboxing, bypass deliverability challenges, and fine-tune outbound systems at scale.

About the Role

This isn’t your typical ESP or campaign manager role. As Email Deliverability & Infrastructure Specialist, you’ll work deep in the stack to optimize high-volume email throughput. You’ll architect and manage sending environments, troubleshoot delivery issues, and implement strategies to ensure maximum inbox placement across millions of sends. You’ll work closely with our campaign and lead ops team to support fast iteration and high-margin outreach.

Key Responsibilities

Build, manage, and optimize outbound email infrastructure for volume and deliverability

Set up and maintain custom sending domains, IPs, DNS records (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), and warm-up processes

Monitor and respond to blacklists, feedback loops, and reputation metrics

Analyze deliverability performance across providers (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.) and adjust strategies accordingly

Implement segmentation, throttling, and rotation tactics to maximize inboxing

Utilize or build tools to rotate content, headers, and technical fingerprints

Partner with campaign managers to align sends with lead quality, engagement, and routing logic

Stay ahead of evolving spam filters and develop innovative strategies to enhance message reach and resilience

What We’re Looking For

3+ years working in email deliverability, bulk sending environments, or outbound infrastructure ops

Advanced understanding of SMTP, DNS, IP warming, and reputation management

Experience with dedicated sending servers, ESPs, and MTA setups

Hands-on with tools like Mailgun, Sendgrid, Amazon SES, or custom SMTP solutions

Comfortable working in gray-area marketing environments with a get-it-done mindset

Strong analytical skills to assess performance data, flags, and sender health metrics

Self-starter who can work independently while collaborating with a performance-obsessed team

Based in Vancouver, WA and excited to join a hybrid, fast-paced operation

Nice to Haves

Experience with custom rotating systems, dynamic header injection, or infrastructure cloaking

Familiarity with email content variation tools and fingerprint management

Background in affiliate, lead gen, or outbound-driven performance marketing

Why Join Impact Scale

Operate at serious outbound scale with the infrastructure to back it

Join a team that values experimentation, agility, and technical autonomy

Direct impact on how messages land, convert, and scale

Competitive compensation and performance-based rewards

Collaborative hybrid work culture with room to grow
