Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've led CRM/lifecycle marketing at a consumer tech or gaming company and driven measurable engagement/retention uplift
  • You're fluent in segmentation, personalization, and real-time behavioral marketing (not just lifecycle stage automation)
  • You thrive in cross-functional environments and can influence Product, Analytics, and Creative teams without formal authority
  • You're obsessed with testing, experimentation, and data—and can translate insights into strategy and team culture
  • You have 7+ years in growth marketing, CRM, or lifecycle roles with 3+ years in leadership
Won't Work If
  • You're looking for a traditional email-focused lifecycle marketer; this role is about real-time, moment-based, behavioral-driven engagement
  • You lack experience with data tools (SQL, BI platforms, analytics) or can't translate metrics into strategic recommendations
  • You're uncomfortable building/managing teams or don't have a track record of hiring and developing talent
  • You're seeking remote-only flexibility; this is a full-time, on-site Atlanta role
