- Define instrumentation, test design, attribution, and reporting with Data Science and marketing systems teams to measure incremental activation and advertiser value.
- Launch useful web experiences with Content, Product Marketing, Design, Engineering, and specialist agencies. Evaluate capabilities such as personalization, chat, and experimentation tools.
- Connect landing experiences to in-product, referral, and cross-sell acquisition programs. Coordinate onboarding and engagement with Lifecycle Marketing.
- Use AI to accelerate research, prototyping, content, analysis, and experimentation. Scale successful tests and communicate results clearly.
You Might Thrive in This Role If You
- Bring 4-7 years of experience in growth marketing, web strategy, organic acquisition, conversion optimization, or product growth, with measurable acquisition, activation, or revenue impact.
- Apply strong analytical judgment across funnels, cohorts, customer behavior, and incremental impact to prioritize growth opportunities.
- Demonstrate ownership of web experiences and experimentation programs that improve conversion from discovery to activation.
- Connect SEO, content-led discovery, and GEO with customer insight, web strategy, and product judgment.
- Translate business opportunities into clear roadmaps and launched experiences with Product, Design, Engineering, Data Science, and Marketing.
- Combine strategic thinking with hands-on growth execution. Relevant backgrounds include scaled technology businesses, startups, or consulting followed by operating experience in startup growth.
- Evaluate and implement web capabilities with technical partners, using AI to improve execution speed and quality.
