Job description

We're a growing, multi brand retail and e-commerce company. Due to the sensitive nature of this search, the hiring company's name is withheld at this stage. Details will be shared directly with candidates who move forward in the process.

This role reports to the Sr. Merchandising Manager, Marketing, and is based in the greater Salt Lake City, UT area, working a hybrid schedule with regular in office time each week.

The Opportunity:

You'll own how our entire product catalog shows up to shoppers: sequencing, sorting, and optimizing category pages, search results, and product walls so the right gear surfaces at the right moment across every step of the shopping journey.

Within your first 6 to 12 months, you'll have a testing cadence running across sequencing, sorting, and search that's measurably lifting conversion and sell-through, and you'll be the partner Buying, Content, and Marketing turn to for how a category or campaign should perform on site.

This is a lean team. You'll own a lot, move fast, and make decisions with full end to end responsibility.

A Look at the Work:

• Sequence and sort category pages, search results, and product walls using data driven rules and manual curation to maximize findability and conversion
• Manage facets, filters, relevance tuning, synonyms, and zero result reduction to optimize the on site search and browse experience
• Execute promotional placements, creative touts, and cross sell and up sell opportunities across category and search pages
• Maintain accurate, up to date product listings, including uploading new products, monitoring inventory, and correcting attributes that affect search and browse performance
• Design and run A/B tests on sequencing logic, sorting rules, facet presentation, and product wall layouts
• Use AI-assisted analysis to surface insights faster and translate test results into merchandising changes with a clear business case
• Track and report on merchandising KPIs (conversion, revenue per session, sell-through, and search performance) on a regular cadence
• Partner with Buying, Content, Ecommerce, and Marketing to align merchandising strategy with inventory position and the promotional calendar

What You Bring:

• 4+ years of experience in ecommerce merchandising, category management, or digital merchandising, ideally in retail or DTC
• Proven track record designing and analyzing A/B tests that drove measurable conversion or revenue improvements
• Hands on experience with on site search/browse platforms (facets, filters, relevance tuning) and product information management tools
• Strong analytical skills, comfortable working in analytics platforms (e.g., Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics) and translating data into merchandising action
• Experience partnering cross functionally with Buying, Marketing, and Technology teams
• Comfortable using AI assisted tools to accelerate analysis, testing, and reporting
• Self starter with strong problem solving instincts and a bias toward ownership and accountability

Bonus Points For:

• Experience in bike, outdoor, sporting goods, or specialty retail ecommerce
• Familiarity with enterprise search platforms (e.g., Algolia, Coveo, Bloomreach)
• Working knowledge of SQL or BI tooling for self serve reporting
