Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You're Braze-certified or deeply proficient in the platform; you live and breathe lifecycle marketing craft
  • You own strategy *and* execution—no hiding behind 'coordination'; you build without needing dev handholding
  • You love data: segmentation, personalization, and measurable impact drive your decision-making
  • You thrive in ambiguity; this role builds CRM from scratch across two distinct verticals with competing needs
Won't Work If
  • You prefer coordinator role or campaign management only; this demands strategic ownership and platform mastery
  • You lack hands-on Braze (or equivalent CDP) experience; you'll struggle with day-one independence
  • You're remote-first; this role is on-site in Los Angeles
  • You need heavy process/governance; Xsolla expects you to define it yourself
