Responsibilities
Mon–Wed — Ship experiments.  Design and launch new campaigns on channels that don't have a playbook yet. Most will flop. A few will work. That's the job.
Thu — Read the data.  Funnels, conversion, CAC, drop-offs. Write up what happened in a doc the team will challenge.
Fri — Scale the winners.  Take what worked small and figure out what it takes to run 10x bigger — systems, SOPs, cross-team handoffs.
Run event-led growth:  bootcamps, challenges, cohorts, on-ground activations, campus programs, community-led campaigns. Anywhere people show up, learn, compete, and bring their friends.
Build tool-led growth:  AI-powered landing pages, SEO/AEO/GEO for student-led websites, content systems, Whats App flows, referral mechanics, AI-powered tools, automated funnels. Anywhere product does the compounding.
Chase any channel that earns its place  — paid, partnerships, creator, influencer, untested experiments. All fair game.
Work directly with Product, CRM, Tech, Content, and Marketing  — write briefs, unblock builds, sit in reviews, push launches out.

Builder's instinct.  Sees a broken funnel or a missing tool and starts fixing it before anyone assigns it.
Team-sport energy.  You play one or you bring that mindset into how you work.
