Who you are

Must-haves

• 8+ years in ecommerce, with at least 3 years leading a DTC business that has an Amazon channel. Consumer products preferred.

• Experience directing performance, Amazon, and development agencies against clear KPIs and budgets.
• Fluent in DTC metrics (ROAS, CAC, LTV, churn, TACoS) and able to turn them into a clear weekly story for executives.
• Able to ramp fast: you have stepped into a running business before and contributed.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience in baby, kids, personal care, or consumer goods.
• Subscription commerce experience, ideally with Recharge.
• Experience with Klaviyo, Triple Whale, Gorgias, or Bazaarvoice.
