* Stay current on platform updates, algorithm shifts, and industry trends to keep our paid social strategy ahead of the curve.
* Drive new acquisition and full-funnel growth ideas, playing an active role in shaping and running experiments.
**What you’ll bring** :
* 3+ years of hands-on experience scaling paid social and paid search at a D2C startup, ideally managing $1M+ monthly budgets.
* A track record of driving efficient growth (CAC, ROI, LTV) while scaling spend.
* Strong project management skills, with the ability to handle multiple initiatives at the same time.
* Comfort with tactical execution and strategic thinking—you can set the plan and run it yourself.

* High attention to detail, with a habit of catching and preventing errors before they become problems.
