Conversion Optimization and Testing

• Identify opportunities to improve user experience and increase conversion through analysis of funnel behavior, session recordings, and customer feedback.
• Define testing hypotheses, prioritize them against expected impact and effort, and maintain a documented testing roadmap.
• Build and implement A/B and multivariate tests end to end, including variant development, audience configuration, and quality assurance.
• Ensure tests are statistically valid, properly scoped, and free of conflicting instrumentation.
• Interpret results and translate findings into recommendations for page structure, copy, merchandising, and checkout flow.
• Partner with design and content colleagues on page layout, product storytelling, and creative assets required for testing.

Analytics, Reporting, and Documentation

• Maintain analytics and tag management implementation in GA4 or an equivalent platform, ensuring events, conversions, and e-commerce tracking remain accurate as the site changes.
• Produce regular reporting on site performance, test outcomes, and conversion trends for the Brand Director and Marketing team.
