About the Role We are hiring a Lifecycle Lead to build the company-wide owned-channel capability that helps teams reach users with relevant, timely, and trustworthy experiences.

You will partner with Engineering, Product, Data Science, and Analytics on the underlying systems, and with Product Marketing Managers and other client teams to design journeys that help new, active, and returning users reach value and build durable habits. In this role, you will: - Partner with product to set the company-wide vision, roadmap, and operating model for lifecycle and owned-channel engagement. - Partner with Engineering, Product, Data Science, and Analytics to shape the tooling and infrastructure for identity, audiences, eligibility, consent, triggers, orchestration, decisioning, frequency, experimentation, localization, quality assurance, and observability. - Define scalable deployment workflows—including self-service and centrally supported paths, intake, templates, approvals, governance, service levels, and incident response—so teams across the company can launch safely and efficiently. - Partner with Product Marketing Managers and other client teams to translate audience, product, and business goals into evergreen jour
