• Own regular analytics and reporting; effectively communicate performance, wins, and challenges to stakeholders

• Deep expertise in Meta Ads Manager, TikTok Ads, and Reddit Ads platforms, including structured testing across bidding, creative, and audience
• Strong understanding of conversion optimization, audience targeting, and creative testing methodologies
• Experience with attribution models and incrementality testing; able to pressure-test data and validate what actually drove performance before scaling
• In-depth understanding of automated bid strategies with experience optimizing toward CPA or ROAS goals
• Comfortable using AI tools in your day-to-day workflow (Ex: for creative concepting, performance analysis, or experimentation) and genuinely curious about how emerging tools change what's possible
• Excellent analytical skills with proficiency in data visualization tools
• Track record of cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder management

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience marketing subscription products or digital content services
