• Demand Generation \& Funnel Scale: Drive B2B lead capture and MQL conversions by steering high\-intent merchant traffic directly to our Shopify App Store listings.


• Process Architecture \& Documentation: Construct, formalize, and document scalable marketing workflows, operational playbooks, and transparent reporting systems to ensure long\-term efficiency.


• Hypothesis\-Driven Testing: Execute all growth initiatives through a systematic, scientific methodology encompassing hypothesis formulation, experiment execution, data analysis, and iterative optimization.


• Tracking \& Analytics Stack: Build and maintain airtight multi\-touch tracking setups using GA4, Google Tag Manager, Looker Studio, and connected data tools.


• Cross\-Functional Collaboration: Align closely with Product Management and Customer Success to coordinate successful feature rollouts, product updates, and merchant cross\-sell initiatives.


• Leadership Transition: Prepare the operational ground to recruit, train, and manage a dedicated growth team as our software portfolio expands over the next 1–2 years.

• Language Requirements: Native or professional C2 German language proficiency combined with strong English communication skills.


• Remote Autonomy: Demonstrated self\-direction, discipline, and strong personal accountability in a fully distributed workplace.

• Total Autonomy: Complete freedom to architect our performance marketing infrastructure from scratch with direct collaboration alongside business leadership.
