The Challenge
Xsolla is the operating system for game commerce-powering 1,500+ developers globally. You'll own end-to-end lifecycle marketing for their Partner Network and Lightstream, building Braze from the ground up as the platform's primary operator and internal expert.
Your Mission
Audit and document existing Braze instance; establish clean segmentation logic, naming conventions, and canvas architecture for both verticals
Design and launch welcome/onboarding journeys for Xsolla Partner Network and Lightstream with baseline engagement KPIs tracked
Develop a segmentation framework using behavioural, consent, and engagement data; identify and prioritize first high-value cohorts
Establish IP warming and deliverability monitoring protocol; audit sender reputation and set corrective action thresholds
Execute 8+ multi-step lifecycle campaigns (welcome, nurture, re-engagement, seasonal) across both verticals with documented performance
Build and own a rolling CRM calendar; coordinate promotional and transactional email programmes with product and marketing teams
Implement 1:1 personalization strategy reflecting user behaviour, creator tier, regional context, and engagement history
Serve as Braze SME for cross-functional stakeholders; document platform capabilities and roadmap for expansion into other Xsolla verticals

Email Engagement Rate (Open, Click, Conversion)
Track baseline and lift across lifecycle journeys; target 25%+ open rate, 5%+ CTR for engaged segments
Sender Reputation & Deliverability
Monitor bounce rates (<2%), spam complaints (<0.1%), and inbox placement; proactively adjust IP warming and list hygiene

Is This Role For You?
- 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
- 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
