About the Role

- Paid acquisition Plan budgets, launch experiments, and optimise all paid campaigns.
- Lifecycle & retention Write the emails, build user journeys, and tune the in-product nudges that turn signups into power users.
- Product-led growth Spot viral loops hiding in the product, get engineers to ship them, and measure the compounding lift.
- Analytics & forecasting Build dashboards, cohorts, and forward-looking models that drive every decision; the moment a number wobbles, you pinpoint the why and trigger the fix.
