Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've shipped 20+ email/push campaigns and can speak fluently to open rates, CTR, and conversion impact
  • You thrive in ambiguity—you can map a full customer journey, spot the gaps, and build the roadmap without hand-holding
  • You're obsessed with segmentation and personalization; you see audience data as the foundation, not an afterthought
  • You love cross-functional collaboration and can translate between product, analytics, and marketing without getting lost
  • You're comfortable with AI/ML concepts and eager to test-and-learn with predictive tools and automation
Won't Work If
  • You're expecting a fully remote setup; this is on-site in Needham, MA (despite the job posting confusion)
  • You've only run batch email campaigns; this role demands sophistication in segmentation, personalization, and multi-channel orchestration
  • You're uncomfortable with heavy analytics and reporting; data storytelling is half the job
