I got this Why me? In the email deliverability world since 2013. I spent almost 7 years at Mailigen, an ESP that was later acquired by Pipedrive, one of the largest CRM platforms. As one of only 3 people responsible for client deliverability and mail infrastructure, I served as a dedicated consultant for our largest senders, including databases of up to 10M opted-in contacts. I made sure inbox placement was as strong as possible, best practices were in place, and clients could run campaigns and automations without deliverability getting in the way. I then stayed on with Pipedrive for 2 more years after the acquisition. From there, I joined Jeff App, one of the fastest-growing fintech startups in the Baltics, where I owned all email campaigns and automations across verticals, languages, and countries, with a constant focus on deliverability, domain reputation, and IP health. I then went freelance and joined Martal Group, one of the leading North American lead gen agencies. What started as a deliverability consulting role grew into a Head of IT position, where I built and maintained outbound infrastructure for hundreds of clients, managing inbox placement across thousands of domains and mailboxes. I handled client communication directly, determined the right stack for each use case, and built out every outbound setup from scratch. During my time there, the company grew from 12 to 60 people and from 11 to 120+ clients. I've since gone fully independent, helping companies run outbound and opt-in marketing in-house. Recent clients include Quickbase, Engine, Usergems, Reppublika, JayaPR, Braintrustdata, Primeprometics, and others. Main expertise - Opt-in email marketing, automations, and campaigns - Cold outreach, email infrastructure, domain and IP warmup, and inbox placement - Domain DNS configuration - Domain and IP reputation: improvements, maintenance, and fixes ESP experience Platforms I work in regularly and know deeply: Klaviyo, ActiveCampaign, AWeber, Mailchimp, Customer.(io), Constant Contact, Drip, GetResponse, HubSpot, MailerLite Also worked with: ConvertKit, Brevo, Moosend, Campaign Monitor, Omnisend, Sendlane Outbound sales tools Regularly used: HubSpot, Smartlead, Instantly, Reply, Outreach, Woodpecker, QuickMail, Apollo, Salesloft Feel free to reach out to me.
