About KSHM

At KSHM, we're redefining how modern India moves — through performance-led activewear that blends comfort, function, and design. Loved by 5L+ customers and a growing 105K+ IG community, we're building a brand that evolves with the people who wear it.

Core Objective

We are not looking for a dashboard operator or a campaign launcher. We are hiring a Performance Marketing Lead with extreme analytical rigor and deep technical ownership to manage, optimize, and aggressively scale paid customer acquisition.

You will own the end-to-end performance engine: from server-side tracking integrity and creative iteration pipelines to bottom-of-funnel conversion rate optimization (CRO) and unit economics (CAC, MER, Blended ROAS, First-Time Contribution Margin).

• 4. Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) & Funnel ArchitectureLanding Page Development: Build and optimize high-converting landing pages using Replo, PageFly, or Webflow, tailored to specific traffic angles.
• Funnel Optimization: Analyze drop-offs from Landing Page View to Initiate Checkout and Payment Success, while A/B testing messaging, pricing, social proof, and checkout experience.

• 5. Marketplace & Quick Commerce Synergies (Added Advantage)Omnichannel Visibility: Track how direct-to-consumer paid media drives brand searches and sales across Amazon, Flipkart, and Quick Commerce platforms.
