• Collaborate with Analytics, Product, AI, Finance, and Brand teams to connect media performance with broader business objectives.
• Proactively identify performance risks, growth opportunities, and operational blockers, taking action before issues materially affect results.
• Build scalable playbooks, systems, processes, reporting frameworks, and operating models that improve performance across multiple brands.
• Communicate complex performance insights and recommendations clearly to founders, leadership, and cross‑functional stakeholders.
• Continuously evaluate emerging acquisition channels, technologies, automation opportunities, and AI‑enabled optimization approaches.

• Proven understanding of ecommerce and DTC growth metrics, including ROAS, CAC, MER, LTV, contribution margin, and profitability.
• Experience with attribution and measurement technologies such as GA4, Google Tag Manager, Conversion API, server‑side tracking, and related measurement frameworks.
• Demonstrated success scaling ecommerce or DTC brands through structured experimentation and performance marketing.
• Strong commercial judgment, with the ability to balance growth, profitability, customer economics, and long‑term brand objectives.
• Excellent leadership, communication, stakeholder management, and team development skills.
• Ability to translate complex performance data into clear, actionable recommendations for founders and senior leadership.
