About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Senior Performance Marketing Specialist to own and scale paid acquisition across established and emerging channels, with a strong focus on qualified pipeline, acquisition efficiency, and revenue impact.

This role goes beyond managing ad campaigns. We want someone who combines strong performance marketing fundamentals with an AI-first mindset—someone who actively uses AI tools, builds automated workflows, and continuously finds ways to make marketing faster, smarter, and more effective.

You'll own campaign strategy and execution across paid search, paid social, and emerging AI-native advertising platforms. You'll also identify opportunities to automate repetitive tasks, improve campaign intelligence, and build scalable workflows that enable the marketing team to operate more efficiently.

This is a highly hands-on role for someone who enjoys experimentation, takes ownership of outcomes, and is comfortable building processes from the ground up.
