Job Summary

Own and accelerate D2C growth for multiple merchants by diagnosing constraints, prioritizing experiments, and delivering high-impact work across acquisition, creative, conversion, and retention, while building a scalable growth operating system and driving measurable revenue.

  • Own the merchant growth program across acquisition, creative, and retention
  • Develop and automate repeatable growth workflows and backlogs
  • Ensure merchant performance targets and revenue impact across the portfolio

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Diagnose the real constraint on each merchant’s profitable D2C growth, quickly, in businesses you didn’t build
  • Prioritize growth time, budget, and engineering work across the portfolio based on each merchant’s stage and opportunity
  • Personally ship the highest-leverage work across acquisition, creative, conversion, offer, lifecycle, and retention
  • Build the merchant growth operating system: scorecards, prioritized backlogs, decision logs, weekly reviews, and simulations
  • Identify recurring workflows that should become software and give engineering clear requirements and acceptance criteria
  • Own performance against agreed merchant D2C sales targets and the revenue those sales generate for the company
  • At least two merchants have a repeatable acquisition or retention loop meeting agreed contribution-margin and payback targets
  • Every active D2C merchant runs through the same growth planning and review process
  • The three most valuable recurring workflows are documented as product requirements, with at least one live as an automation across three or more merchants

Requirements

  • 3+ years hands-on in paid social. Meta is your home platform, and you’re comfortable running TikTok and creator-driven campaigns
  • You’ve worked both sides: agency, juggling a book of accounts with competing priorities, and in-house at a DTC or CPG brand selling physical products
  • Creative-led: you brief creators, cut ads, test hooks, and own the landing page, not just optimize bids
  • You understand account structure, creative testing, measurement, and how to make decisions with limited budgets
  • You think in systems and reach for AI and automation by default; you can articulate what a tool or agent should do even if you don’t build it
  • You’ve operated inside small companies (under 200 people) and are comfortable making calls with incomplete data

Preferred

  • Beauty, skincare, or Asia-to-US brand experience
  • TikTok Shop, affiliate, or creator program experience
  • AEO/GEO or SEO
  • Built something from zero to one before

Benefits

  • Health insurance
  • company equipment and remote-work support
  • flexible PTO with a minimum of 15 days off per year
