  • Experience with data modeling or opportunity sizing frameworks.
  • Deep experimentation experience including building backlogs and designing rigorous tests to drive compounding improvements.
  • Hands-on experience with a CRM or marketing automation platform like Braze, Iterable, or Salesforce Marketing Cloud.
  • Fluency with AI tools to automate, accelerate, and scale output.
  • Experience as a growth PM or role owning a product roadmap (preferred).
