Job Summary

Own the growth engine for a consumer beauty product, combining premium brand storytelling with content ops and research-driven launches.

  • Growth strategy ownership: define reach, conversion, and retention with clear funnel metrics and regular review cycles.

  • Audience and launch readiness: pre-launch education and community programs to prime demand and ensure messaging lands.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Shape and own our growth strategy: how we reach, win, and keep our customers.
  • Develop a distinctive, premium point of view and carry it across everything we make.
  • Build a creative and content operation across social, UGC, and video, with help from contractors and partners.
  • Blend online and offline — social presence plus demos, events, and experiences people want to share.
  • Get close to our customer through research, so our launch messaging really lands.
  • Grow an engaged audience before launch through beauty and skincare content, education, and community.
  • Track what's working with clear, full-funnel metrics, and use a regular rhythm of reviews to keep learning and adjusting.
  • Use AI across content, research, and ops to do more with a small team.

Requirements

  • Several years of growth or brand marketing experience with consumer products, including some experience guiding or mentoring others.
  • A knack for reaching a premium, design-minded customer — through brand, culture, or craft.
  • Comfort with paid social (Meta and/or TikTok) and a feel for what makes creative work on those platforms.
  • A self-starter streak — you're happy to pick up an idea and run with it.
  • Ease with ambiguity, change, and the occasional blank page.
  • AI is part of how you work, and you have a point of view on it.

Preferred

  • Consumer hardware experience, especially early-stage.
  • You've built or scaled a UGC or creator program.
  • You've grown a newsletter, social following, or community from scratch.
  • You've run pop-ups, demos, dinners, or activations as a growth channel.
  • You can cut a quick video or design an asset to test an idea on your own.
  • A real love of makeup, skincare, beauty, and its subcultures.

Benefits

  • Highly competitive salary & generous early-stage equity
  • Best-in-class medical, dental & vision insurance
  • 401(k) matching program
  • Flexible Time Off with 10 paid holidays
  • Commuter benefits
