  • Stay current with the latest CRO best practices, industry trends, and emerging technologies.
  • Collaborate with the broader marketing team (SEO, PPC, Content, Email) to ensure alignment and integrated optimization efforts.
  • Create dashboards and reports to track key CRO metrics and communicate progress to stakeholders.
  • Perform heuristic analysis and user experience (UX) reviews of the e-commerce platform.
  • Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement and data-driven decision-making.
Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Statistics, Economics, Business Analytics, or a related quantitative field.
  • Minimum of 4 years of experience specifically in Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) within an e-commerce environment.
  • Proven track record of designing and executing successful A/B tests that have led to significant increases in conversion rates and revenue.
  • Expertise in using web analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics) and CRO platforms (e.g., VWO, Optimizely, Google Optimize).
  • Proficiency with user behavior analysis tools (e.g., Hotjar, Crazy Egg, Full Story).
  • Strong understanding of UX principles, user psychology, and online consumer behavior.
  • Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and statistical analysis skills.
  • Ability to translate complex data into actionable insights and clear recommendations.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with experience working in remote or distributed teams.
  • Familiarity with front-end development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) is a plus.
