Your strategic emphasis will be on building scalable, AI-native acquisition tools, managing complex funnel optimizations, and conducting in-depth cohort and LTV analyses to facilitate efficient, sustainable, and accelerated growth in global markets.

• Establish Advanced Measurement and Attribution: Create and refine data architecture and attribution models to accurately gauge the effects of product changes and marketing investments on critical metrics like CAC, LTV, and retention.
• Drive a Culture of Rapid Experimentation: Advocate for a rigorous A/B testing framework by defining clear hypotheses, establishing measurement plans, and translating insights into scalable, documented playbooks.
• Manage Financial Strategy and Tradeoffs: Work closely with Finance and Business Intelligence to provide acquisition insights for forecasting, budgeting, investment pacing, and striking a balance between growth targets and efficiency.
• Develop AI-First Creative Systems: Partner with Design and Marketing to create fast, scalable creative prototyping systems powered by generative AI to quickly test and iterate on high-performing ad assets and messaging.
• Identify and Validate Whitespace Growth: Use market data, competitive intelligence, and user research to pinpoint new audience segments and regional opportunities, leading efforts to expand coverage and localization.
• Integrate SEO Strategy into Product: Design and implement a vision for optimizing organic acquisition, ensuring the Gemini product structure and content rank effectively in third-party search engines.
• Lead and Mentor a High-Performing Team: Recruit, nurture, and guide a growing team of product managers and specialists, fostering a culture of data-driven decision-making, ownership, and excellence across functions.
