About the Role

We are looking for a Solutions Specialist who will focus primarily on building, automating, and maintaining solutions within the Smartly platform and Google Apps Script environment.

This is a hands-on technical role where you will create custom automations, troubleshoot complex issues, and guide clients on how best to leverage Smartly’s capabilities.
