Etem Utku Oylum

I build the systems behind growth.

Marketing technology and automation lead. I turn business priorities into roadmaps, then build the CRM, data, acquisition and AI workflows that deliver them.

Currently Senior Marketing Automation Manager at ucm.

Based in Berlin. EU Blue Card holder.

Profile

I combine strategic ownership with hands-on delivery. My entrepreneurial background keeps technical decisions tied to commercial goals, whether I lead the project, work across teams or own the implementation. I bring new AI and workflow capabilities into operations and customer journeys early. The goal stays the same: less manual work, more measurable growth.

Things I build

Systems that run from the first click to the lifecycle message.

A website and its measurement layer, built from scratch

I built and launched a new Webflow website together with everything that measures it: analytics, event tracking, web-to-app journeys, CRM integrations and advertising conversion events. Acquisition workflows now connect the website, HubSpot and the mobile app.

An attribution system in Google Tag Manager

Every visit is classified where it starts. Tag Manager reads UTM parameters and click IDs, sorts the visit into channel, channel detail and channel group, and carries that through the lead form, so every lead is attributed before it reaches the CRM. Dashboards and budget decisions run on the same three fields.

SEO and GEO, 2026

Roadmaps for visibility in AI answers

It starts with a measured baseline: prompt sets per audience, run repeatedly across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity and scored for mention and citation share. Then the layers: crawl access through Google and the Bing index, a connected schema.org entity graph, answer-first pages built on the tracked prompts, and the third-party sources models cite. Every month the baseline runs again and priorities are re-ranked from the evidence.

From under 2% to about 20% AI visibility

I developed and run the SEO and Generative Engine Optimization roadmap. AI visibility rose from below 2% to approximately 20%, placing the brand ahead of 80% of tracked competitors, and organic lead volume tripled across B2B and B2C.

n8n workflows that qualify and route leads

Leads arrive through a webhook, get validated, are qualified by an AI agent and routed to Sales, Operations or Marketing. I built the workflows with n8n and Retool, connected to the rest of the stack through REST APIs, OAuth and webhooks.

Lifecycle automation fed by warehouse data

Operational data comes in through Retool and lands in Snowflake. dbt models it into the attributes and events lifecycle messaging needs, and Braze ingests the result to trigger automated journeys, with no manual exports in between.

Consent-aware tracking and RAG knowledge tools

I implemented consent-aware tracking with Segment and mParticle, so data only flows once a user has agreed to it. I also developed RAG-based internal knowledge tools for marketing and operational workflows, and turned recurring automations into reusable modules with documentation.
