Responsibilities:
- Own channel strategy and performance across key paid UA channels (Google, Meta, TikTok, Reddit, ASA, emerging platforms).
- Continuously optimize channels: improve bidding, pacing, targeting, and efficiency levers to reduce CAC and drive net-new funded clients.
- Lead creative strategy: you know how to build a high-performing creative engine — developing insights, briefs, and hypotheses that fuel fast, effective UGC and ad production that lifts CTR, CVR, and CAC.

Requirements:
- 4–6+ years experience in growth or performance marketing; fintech, e-commerce, or consumer apps preferred.
- Deep hands-on knowledge of paid UA channels and experimentation frameworks.
- Analytical thinker who’s comfortable with CAC/LTV modelling, incrementality, and diagnosing performance swings.
- Creative and curious — you love testing new ideas, hooks, and ad formats.
- Strong communicator who can turn data into simple, compelling narratives.
- Scrappy, data-driven, and thrives in fast-moving environments.
- Nice to Have:
- Experience with financial products, high-trust categories, or regulated industries.
- Familiarity with SQL.
