About the Role
As Director of E-commerce, you own the post-click experience on auraframes.com and Amazon marketplace experience. From the moment a shopper lands on the site to the moment they convert (and come back), you are responsible for turning traffic into revenue.
This is a high-ownership role on our Amazon 3P experience, Shopify-powered storefront, and other marketplaces. You will lead conversion rate optimization, site merchandising, and the on-site customer journey, partnering closely with paid media, lifecycle, brand, and product to make auraframes.com the best place to buy an Aura.
What You'll Own
- Own the marketplace strategy across Amazon and emerging channels, balancing profitable growth, brand presentation, operational excellence, and channel expansion.
- Own the full funnel from landing to purchase. Build and run a continuous testing roadmap, across landing pages, PDPs, cart, and checkout and build a mature CRO discipline. Set the agenda for what we test, why, and how we measure lift.
- Manage product presentation, bundling, pricing display, and promotional execution on-site. Translate seasonal moments (Back to School, holiday, gifting) into compelling on-site experiences.
- Own page speed, navigation, search, and the overall usability of the storefront. Reduce friction at every step.
- Lead our Shopify storefront roadmap, including theme, apps, and integrations. Partner with engineering and agencies as needed.
- Own e-commerce revenue targets, forecast site performance, and report on the metrics that drive the channel.
- Work with paid media to align landing experiences to campaigns, with lifecycle to convert and retain, and with brand to keep the storefront on-message.
- Develop a point of view on assortment, bundling, pricing architecture, and merchandising that maximizes conversion, AOV, and profitability
- Drive personalization across the storefront using customer behavior, merchandising, and AI to create more relevant shopping experiences
- AI-first mindset with a track record of identifying, building, and deploying AI solutions (agents, workflows, automations, and copilots) that create competitive advantage and operational efficiency.
What You Bring
- 7+ years in e-commerce, with significant time owning a DTC storefront and marketplaces. Shopify experience strongly preferred.
- A proven CRO track record. You can point to tests you designed and the revenue they drove.
- Strong analytical fluency. You are comfortable with site analytics (GA4 or equivalent), A/B testing tools, and translating data into decisions.
- Merchandising instinct paired with operational rigor. You can make a page convert and ship it on time.
- A bias toward ownership. You set strategy and you execute, and you do not wait to be told what to test.
- Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills across marketing, product, and engineering.
Nice to Have
- Experience scaling a brand through $100M+ in DTC revenue.
- Familiarity with measurement frameworks (MER, incrementality, post-purchase attribution).
- Experience with gifting or considered-purchase categories.

About Aura
