• Analytics & Activation Pipelines: Set up product analytics (e.g., PostHog, Mixpanel) and write SQL queries to track user journeys across our three verticals. Identify our "Aha!" moments and engineer automated lifecycle emails/push notifications to drive retention.
• AI-Powered Growth Hacks: Experiment with LLM APIs to personalize onboarding flows, automate community moderation, or generate localized marketing copy at scale using our Bud-AI infrastructure.
• Social & Content Automation: Build workflows that automatically repurpose long-form video or user-generated content into optimized short-form clips (Reels/TikToks) and schedule them across our digital channels.

• Analytics: Experience with product analytics tools (PostHog, Mixpanel, Amplitude) and building dashboards to measure campaign success and user retention.
• Marketing: Familiarity with programmatic SEO, lead generation, and digital marketing principles.
• Content: Hands-on experience with social media platforms and content creation/editing tools (Canva, CapCut, Veed) to support your technical campaigns with great creative.
• Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable speaking directly to early users to solicit honest product feedback.
• Mindset: A high level of empathy, a desire to build communities, and a "hacker" mentality (you love finding clever, automated ways to solve business problems).
