Weโ€™re building the next generation of creative tools powered by cutting-edge AI, enabling anyone to create videos, visuals, characters, and stories with unprecedented speed and imagination. We believe the future of creativity is AI-native, and weโ€™re shaping that future.

๐Ÿš€ Why Join OpenArt

  • Direct impact on growth โ€” your work drives acquisition efficiency and revenue.

  • Work across product, marketing, and data โ€” highly cross-functional role.

  • Build from 0 โ†’ 1 โ€” define how we track, attribute, and optimize growth.

    High ownership, low process, fast iteration environment.

  • 7โ€“10X revenue growth over the past 2 years โ€” now scaling growth infrastructure.

๐ŸŽฏ About the Role

Weโ€™re looking for a Growth Data Engineer to build and own OpenArtโ€™s marketing data and attribution systems, ensuring that all acquisition and lifecycle efforts are accurately measured and optimized.

This role sits at the intersection of data engineering, marketing tech, and analytics โ€” focused on making sure that data flows reliably between product, warehouse, CRM, and ad platforms.

You will be responsible for ensuring that every marketing dollar is measurable, attributable, and optimizable โ€” from first touch to revenue.

    • GTM (client + server-side)

    • Google Ads (Enhanced Conversions)

    • Meta Pixel + Conversions API

    • LinkedIn, TikTok, and other ad platforms

  • Set up and maintain conversion events and schemas across platforms

  • Ensure consistent event definitions and naming across product, CRM, and ad platforms

  • Build and manage audience sync pipelines

  • Integrate CRM and warehouse data into ad platforms for optimization (offline conversions, lead stages, revenue)

  • Operationalize new marketing experiments (UTMs, tracking parameters, campaign setup)

  • Debug and resolve tracking and attribution discrepancies across systems (e.g., Ads vs CRM vs warehouse)

  • Build and validate marketing and pipeline dashboards, ensuring data accuracy and consistency

  • Implement privacy-safe tracking practices (Consent Mode, CMP integrations)

  • Partner closely with growth, product, and data teams to ensure measurement supports decision-making

  • Experience implementing conversion tracking and attribution systems

  • Experience sending offline conversions / LTV signals back to ad platforms

  • Familiarity with data pipelines and warehouse concepts (BigQuery, SQL, ETL/ELT)

  • Strong SQL skills; comfortable working with data directly

  • Strong debugging skills โ€” able to systematically investigate and resolve data discrepancies

  • Comfortable working cross-functionally with marketing, product, and data teams

  • High ownership, fast execution, and strong attention to detail

Nice to Have

  • Experience supporting performance marketing teams

  • Familiarity with:

    • Privacy frameworks (SKAN, ATT, Privacy Sandbox)

  • Experience with mobile attribution tools (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch)
