About the Role:

You’ll run lifecycle marketing at Quizlet alongside our existing Lifecycle Manager, splitting the work by what each of you is best at or interested in rather than by seniority. Lifecycle is a small team with a large surface, so you’ll be in the platform, writing and iterating copy, and launching campaigns yourself.

This work at Quizlet sits at an unusual intersection: our users are students whose needs change by season, by course, and by how close their exam is. Getting the right message to them at the right moment is a real problem, not a templating exercise. There’s also a net-new product in the mix, which means building a lifecycle program from nothing rather than optimizing one that exists.

In this role, you will:

• Own programs end-to-end — influence the brief, iterate the copy, project-manage creative development, build the campaign in our lifecycle platform, and launch it with minimal oversight.

• Shape the lifecycle strategy and roadmap across activation, engagement, conversion, retention, and winback, via push, email, and in-product modals.

• Partner closely with Product Management on instrumentation, triggers, eligibility, and launch coordination, so lifecycle is designed into features rather than bolted on afterward. Getting materially more synchronized with Product is a priority for the coming quarters.

• Stand up lifecycle for a net-new product — evaluate how to do all of the above for something launching from zero, including a separate workspace, go-to-market coordination with Product Marketing, and a behavioral trigger roadmap built from scratch.

• Grow our mobile push opt-in rate, expanding the addressable audience for one of our highest-performing channels.

• Build toward richer, more real-time segmentation — behavioral signals that reflect how students actually study, and the cross-functional backing to make genuine personalization possible.

• Own conversion and retention targets for lifecycle-influenced MAU and revenue, in close coordination with Product Management, and report on them with a clear view of what’s working and what you’re changing.

• Run a disciplined experimentation program. You design the tests, hold the line on rigor, and retire programs that don’t earn their place in the user’s inbox — including owning message volume and frequency governance, and pushing back internally when a send isn’t worth the attention it costs.

• Partner with our Ads team on sponsored email and co-marketing campaigns, coordinating builds and keeping the overall user experience coherent.

• Extend lifecycle into our international markets in close collaboration with Growth, Product, and Partnerships — adapting journeys, timing, and messaging to local academic calendars and norms rather than translating what works in the U.S.
  

What you bring to the table:

• Hands-on experience owning lifecycle or CRM programs end-to-end for a consumer product at scale — brief through build through launch, not just strategy decks.

• Fluency with a modern lifecycle platform: audience building, triggered journeys, templates, and campaign QA.

• Knowledge of HTML/CSS, and experience with marketing automation software like Braze, Iterable or something comparable. We care that you can build, not which tool you learned on.

• Email deliverability fundamentals — sender reputation, IP warming, and list hygiene.

• Strong command of segmentation and experimentation, including the judgment to know when a result is real.

• Proven partnership with Product and Engineering on instrumentation and triggers; you can hold your own in a roadmap conversation and translate marketing needs into something an engineer can build.

• Comfort with the tools, technologies, and data required to build and evolve the function – you should be able to work directly with engineering and data science to describe what you need and why, and work with them on technical issues without an intermediary.

• Experience using AI for copy experimentation and reporting automation, and an interest in pushing that further.

• Strong writing. You can make a message sound like a person rather than a system.

• Self-starter; proactive by nature, with a bias toward action over deliberation.
  

Bonus points if you have:

• Experience with a freemium subscription business, especially conversion from free to paid.

• Experience standing up lifecycle for a brand-new product, not just scaling an existing program.

• Experience marketing to students or a young consumer audience.

• Experience in a business with strong seasonality.
