Job Summary

Own end-to-end creator-led growth: shape content strategy, partnerships, measurement, and product discovery to drive new customer acquisition and revenue.

  • Lead partnerships and content strategy
  • Build measurement and attribution foundation with data teams

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • New customer volume, qualified UV and CAC across EN, JP and KR sites
  • The content engine: what we post, why, and what hypothesis each piece is testing
  • Creator and affiliate partnerships — sourcing, negotiating, and scaling what works
  • A weekly product discovery pipeline that connects trends to inventory we can actually sell
  • The attribution layer: UTM discipline, social-to-site tracking, and a defensible answer to “where did this customer come from”
  • Build the measurement foundation — UTM governance and social-to-site attribution, working with our data team. Today we can't trace external content to on-site conversion, and nothing else you do is provable until we can.
  • Turn on Instagram Shopping and product tagging so content has a path to purchase
  • Establish a content calendar with a clear split between evergreen category plays and trend capture
  • Set a baseline and a target for new customer conversion, then move it

Requirements

  • 4+ years in social, content or creator-led growth, including experience leading or mentoring others
  • You are genuinely native to the platforms. You know what's working on TikTok this month, not last year. You can tell the difference between a trend worth chasing and one that's already over.
  • Proven track record building organic social or creator programs that drove measurable revenue — not follower counts
  • Hands-on affiliate marketing experience: creator commissions, publisher partnerships, TikTok Shop or equivalent
  • Comfort building measurement where none exists — UTM taxonomy, channel attribution, basic cohort analysis
  • Strong taste in product and culture. Much of this job is choosing what to put in front of people.
  • Partnership instincts: this only works if it's tightly coupled to merchandising, site operations and CRM

Preferred

  • Experience at a consumer brand or e-commerce company that grew primarily through social and creators rather than paid media
  • Food, beauty, or Asian consumer category experience
  • Japanese or Korean market exposure
  • Reddit or community-led growth experience
  • You don't need deep paid media expertise — that sits with our central performance team. You do need to know enough to brief them well.

Benefits

  • 401(k) matching
  • Health insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Paid time off (PTO): vacation, sick leave, and holidays
  • On-site gym and game rooms
  • Employee discount
  • Coffee and snacks
