User Acquisition Manager for Edumio

• User Acquisition Manager for Edumio

Edumio is an AI-skills learning platform that teaches ambitious professionals to build real, working AI agents through an interactive, gamified, hands-on experience instead of passive video courses. We run a web2web subscription model today, with a mobile app (web2app) on the roadmap, and we're scaling paid acquisition across Meta, Google, TikTok, Snap, and UGC. Our growth is hypothesis-driven: every dollar of spend is a test, judged on profitable, retained revenue, not clicks.

The role

Your one job: make the unit economics work. Find profitable ways to acquire paying subscribers, then scale them, growing paid spend from virtually $0 to ~$50k/day within a year while staying profitable on a payback basis.

This is equal parts performance marketing and growth hacking. You'll own all paid growth end to end, across every platform: setting strategy, building and buying campaigns yourself, briefing creative, and reading the numbers down to cohort LTV and payback. It's a player-coach seat, hands-on today, building and leading the UA team as spend scales.

If you've scaled subscription products profitably and you think in ROAS, payback windows, and trial-to-paid, not vanity metrics, this is a rare chance to own a product's entire paid engine.

What you'll own

• Positive unit economics — find profitable acquisition and scale it: grow paid spend from ~$0 toward ~$50k/day within a year while hitting ROAS, CAC, and payback targets. Own blended and channel-level economics, with retention and refund rates as guardrails.
• All paid channels, end to end — Meta (including partnership ads), Google (Search / YouTube), TikTok, and Snap, plus UGC. Launch, structure, scale, and cut campaigns yourself.
• The conversion funnel — partner with product to optimize the full path from landing page to paywall, checkout, and retention, and fix the leaks that paid traffic exposes.
• Creative strategy & velocity — brief, test, and iterate ad creative with our creative team at high volume; mine winners by hook rate, retention, and conversion, and feed the next round of tests.
• Measurement you trust — own attribution and reporting in Amplitude, PostHog, and GA4, with server-side tracking (Meta CAPI) for signal quality. Know what's incremental vs. last-click noise.
• A disciplined test cadence — run a structured hypothesis backlog: prioritize, ship, read out, and compound the learnings.
• Budget & forecasting — own paid budget, pacing, and spend forecasts tied to growth targets.
• Building the team (eventually) — as spend scales, hire and lead UA buyers and manage agency/partner relationships.

What you bring

• 5+ years in performance marketing / media buying, with a strong record in subscription, web2web, or D2C, and proof you've scaled paid spend profitably to high daily budgets (tens of thousands/day) on ROAS and payback, not just spent it.
• Deep hands-on mastery of Google. You're comfortable being the one in the ad accounts every day.
• Web subscription fluency — paywalls, trials, plan mix, trial-to-paid, cohort LTV, churn, and refunds. You know money is made on profitable retained revenue, not the click.
• Analytics depth — hands-on with Amplitude, PostHog, and GA4, server-side tracking (CAPI), and confident spreadsheet/BI analysis of cohorts and unit economics.
• Creative-first instinct — you treat creative as the #1 lever, brief it sharply, and read creative performance like a media buyer, not a designer.
• Growth-hacker mindset — scrappy, experiment-driven, and relentless about finding the unlock that makes the math work. High autonomy, bias to action, fluent professional English.

Nice to have

• UGC production and creator sourcing at scale.
• Lifecycle/email, CRO, and paywall/landing-page optimization.
• Edtech, AI, or info-product experience; familiarity with AI-assisted creative tooling.
• SQL / BI for self-serve cohort and unit-economics analysis.
• Mobile UA and app measurement (AppsFlyer, SKAN) — a plus for when web2app launches.

Why join

• Own the whole engine. All of paid, with real budget and a clear mandate: find profitable unit economics and scale spend from ~$0 to $50k/day.
• Scale + autonomy. Ambitious targets, minimal bureaucracy, and the freedom to run your own playbook and back it with data.
• Build with operators. A Genesis-backed team that has done this before, with the playbooks, creative engine, and tooling to move fast.
• Grow into a leader. Start hands-on, build the team, and grow into the senior owner of UA / growth.
• Remote, results-based. Work from anywhere, with competitive performance-based compensation that rewards outcomes, not hours.
