About the Role:We’re looking for a Performance Marketing Manger to help us level up how we talk to our customers. This isn’t just about sending emails — it’s about building thoughtful, automated touchpoints that feel useful, personal, and maybe even a little delightful.
Location:Our employees can choose to work remotely in the U.S. Join us in our Austin, Texas office, or opt for a hybrid setup. Whether you prefer the structure of an office, the convenience of remote work, or a mix of both, we support what works best for you!
Please note - At this time we are not able to hire in California, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and New York.
What You'll Do:You’ll thrive here if you’re equal parts creative and analytical: excited about pushing into new media opportunities, disciplined about measurement and ROI, and hungry to grow your skills in a fast-moving, data-driven environment.
Own performance marketing campaigns across paid social (Meta, Snap, TikTok, etc.), media networks, and other emerging platforms.
Continuously test new channels, partners, and creative formats to expand our reach and uncover scalable opportunities.
Develop hypotheses, design experiments, and measure results to drive insights and optimize ROI.
Manage budgets, pacing, and forecasts across multiple campaigns and channels.
Partner with creative and brand teams to brief and refine ad assets tailored to each platform.
Report on campaign performance, channel mix, and learnings to cross-functional stakeholders.
Stay ahead of trends in performance marketing and identify new opportunities for growth.
7-10 years of experience in performance marketing, with direct ownership of paid social channels (Meta, Snap, TikTok strongly preferred)
Proven track record of scaling campaigns and optimizing CAC/LTV
Comfort with data analysis, A/B testing, and performance measurement (e.g., Google Analytics, MMPs, internal dashboards)
Strong communication skills with the ability to translate performance insights into business impact
Curiosity and adaptability — eager to experiment with new channels and approaches
Experience in insurance, fintech, or another high-consideration category is a plus
