  • Build and lead a high-performing acquisition machine
  • Own the multi-year growth model connecting channel strategy to $100M+ revenue
  • Identify and prioritize step-change growth levers across acquisition, investment, promotions, and merchandising
  • Lead channel expansion strategy and testing roadmap with clear kill/scale decision frameworks
  • Reduce single-channel dependency while maintaining efficiency and scale
  • Own real-time performance management against CAC, ROAS, payback, and margin goals; diagnose variance and redirect spend quickly
  • Lead annual media-budget strategy and allocation at meaningful scale, including ownership of $20M–$25M+ in spend across performance and emerging channels
  • Own visibility and customer acquisition inside AI-driven discovery, including AEO/GEO performance across LLM assistants, AI Overviews, and zero-click search experiences
  • Partner with Retail and Amazon on national distribution, velocity modeling, and measurement of the DTC-to-retail halo as omnichannel scales
  • Partner with creative strategy to establish the right testing velocity, learning agendas, and performance benchmarks
  • Partner with the larger marketing team to align brand, performance, and lifecycle creative into a unified growth narrative
  • Oversee and direct Digital Product to optimize funnels, personalization, and merchandising
  • Own the entire e-commerce tech stack, including staffing and maintaining the engineering function
  • Use growth insights to inform roadmap prioritization (SKUs, bundles, onboarding flows)
  • Set a high bar for web aesthetics and customer trust, ensuring landing pages, PDPs, checkout flows, and digital experiences combine strong visual craft with measurable conversion performance
  • Bring technical depth in web development and ecommerce architecture to challenge assumptions, scope solutions, and partner credibly with engineers
  • Own the AI roadmap for the Growth and Ecommerce organization, prioritizing use cases by revenue impact, cost savings, speed, and strategic advantage
  • Build and scale AI-enabled workflows across creative development, media buying, CRO, customer insights, predictive analytics, forecasting, reporting, and decision support
  • Personally prototype and build with modern AI tools; translate hands-on knowledge into scalable capabilities for the broader organization
  • Deploy agents, automation, and internal tools that reduce manual work, accelerate testing velocity, and improve the quality and consistency of execution

  • Build and develop senior leaders across growth functions
  • Lead a lean, high-output organization spanning Growth and Media, Digital Product and CRO, analytics, and engineering partners
  • Stay close enough to the work to inspect performance, challenge strategy, improve execution, and step in directly when leadership leverage is required
  • Align Marketing, Retention, Product, Finance, Ops, and Brand against shared growth KPIs
  • Manage agencies and external partners with clear accountability and outcomes

Requirements

  • Experience scaling a subscription-heavy consumer business, with a working understanding of how acquisition decisions show up in cohort LTV
  • Hands-on technical fluency across ecommerce platforms, web development, experimentation infrastructure, analytics, and AI-enabled workflows
