• Support cross‑functional initiatives aimed at improving efficiency, acquisition, and retention.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in digital marketing, with a focus on acquisition and performance‑driven channels.
• Strong understanding of SEO strategy and proven experience leading organic growth initiatives.
• Working knowledge of emerging AI search approaches (AEO, GEO, AISO) and their applications.
• Experience managing Paid Social and/or Paid Search campaigns (Meta, TikTok, Google Ads, etc.).
