  • Develop and execute user acquisition strategies across multiple markets, identifying opportunities to expand campaigns and reach new audiences.
  • Scale successful campaigns while maintaining acquisition costs and profitability within established business targets.
  • Make data-driven decisions regarding campaign optimization, budget distribution, audience targeting, and channel performance.
  • Take direct ownership of campaign execution and continuous improvement, ensuring marketing investments generate measurable and sustainable business results.
Requirements:
  • At least 5 years of professional experience in performance marketing, digital advertising, or user acquisition, ideally within mobile gaming or consumer mobile applications.

  • Practical experience with mobile measurement and attribution platforms such as AppsFlyer or Adjust.
  • Experience designing and executing creative testing strategies, interpreting results, and using performance insights to improve advertising effectiveness.
  • Strong analytical capabilities, with the ability to interpret campaign-level and user-level data, identify performance challenges, and make informed budget allocation decisions.
  • A proven track record of personally managing and optimizing acquisition campaigns rather than focusing exclusively on agency coordination or high-level strategy.
  • Excellent problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across creative, marketing, and other business teams.
  • A results-oriented mindset, strong commercial awareness, and the ability to balance growth ambitions with acquisition efficiency and long-term profitability.
