Pixel Theory | Fully Remote (U.S.) EST or CST | Full-Time
Pixel Theory is the strategic growth partner for scaled consumer brands. We don't run ads. We run growth, and there's a real difference.
We build the financial models, data infrastructure, and cohort analyses that tell our clients which customers are worth acquiring, what they're worth over time, and what the brand should pay to bring them in. Then we go get them. We run the media buying, the creative, and the post-click experience that drives qualified, scalable new customer growth.
We operate in pods. One Growth Strategist, one Media Buyer, one Creative Strategist, working in lockstep so the data, the buying, and the creative are never disconnected. We're a 20-person team of senior operators. Everyone here is sharp, accountable, and obsessed with doing the work well.
We're hiring a Senior Growth Strategist to lead growth for 6 consumer brand clients.
This is not a junior role. It is not a managed seat. You will own your book of business, run your pods, and be the strategic brain that connects data, media, and creative for every brand you lead.
You'll be the person a founder or CMO calls when they want a real answer on whether their CAC is sustainable, which cohort to double down on, or why last month's creative test didn't move the needle. You'll have a media buyer and a creative strategist on your pod. Your job is to direct them, not do their work for them.
One important note before you read further. This is an agency seat, not a brand seat. The skill sets are not interchangeable. The people who thrive here genuinely want to operate across a portfolio of brands. They love the pattern-matching, the context-switching, and the leverage of solving similar problems across very different businesses. If you'd rather own one brand's roadmap end to end, this isn't the role. If you light up at the idea of running growth for 6 brands at once and being the strategic anchor for each of them, keep reading.
Growth strategy for 6 brands. You set the direction for each account. What we're testing, what we're scaling, what we're killing, and why.
The data and modeling layer. You'll work with our analytics infrastructure to build and interpret cohort analyses, LTV models, CAC payback curves, and channel-level growth models. You translate the numbers into a real plan. This is the bar, not a nice-to-have. If you can't read a payback curve and tell us what to do about it, this isn't the role for you.
Pod leadership. You direct a media buyer and a creative strategist on each account. You set the test roadmap, prioritize what gets built, and hold the bar on quality.
Client relationships. You're the senior strategic voice for the client. You run the QBRs, lead the hard conversations, and make sure the brand understands not just what we're doing, but why.
Channel strategy across Meta, Google, and TikTok. You know how each platform actually works in 2026. What scales, what's a trap, and how creative interacts with the algorithm on each one.
Post-click connection. You partner with our on-site team to make sure the LP, the subscription flow, the buy box, and the offer are all aligned with the acquisition strategy. CAC doesn't end at the click, and the strategists who win here understand that.
- A self-starter. Hand you a brand, a data room, and a problem, and you come back with a plan. You don't need to be told what to look at next.
- Deeply analytical, and commercial. You can build the model. You can also explain it to a founder in 90 seconds without losing them. You think in unit economics, not campaign KPIs.
- Comfortable in ambiguity. Consumer brands are messy. You can pattern-match across categories, business models, and stages without needing a playbook handed to you.
- An agency-shaped operator. You want to run growth across a portfolio of brands, not one. You like the variety, the context-switching, and the leverage.
- A strong communicator. You write clearly, you present confidently, and you can hold your own with senior brand-side stakeholders.
- Bar-raising. You care about the work being right, not just done. You push your pod and you push your clients.
- 5+ years in growth, performance marketing, or growth strategy for consumer brands. This is a senior hire. No junior or mid-level candidates.
- Agency experience leading multiple consumer brand accounts, OR senior in-house experience at a scaled DTC, subscription, or omnichannel consumer brand.
- Deep, hands-on understanding of Meta, Google, and TikTok as growth channels. How they're bought, how creative performs on each, and where the leverage points are.
- Strong command of growth analytics. This is non-negotiable. Cohort analysis, LTV/CAC modeling, payback periods, MMM/MTA literacy, channel attribution tradeoffs. You need to understand the relationship between media spend, payback periods, and the financials of the business. Not just the inside of an ad account.
- Experience operating across DTC e-commerce (Shopify or headless), subscription business models, and ideally some exposure to CPG/retail.
- Comfort with autonomous remote work. You can run your book, run your pods, and manage your time without close oversight.
- Based in the U.S. and authorized to work in the U.S.
- Experience scaling a brand from $1M to $10M+ in monthly paid media spend.
- Fluency with tools like Northbeam, Triple Whale, Rockerbox, or similar attribution/analytics platforms.
- SQL or strong spreadsheet and modeling chops. You can get into the data yourself when needed.
- Experience with CRO and on-site conversion strategy.
- Background in subscription growth specifically. Replenishment, membership, or recurring revenue mechanics.
- Competitive compensation. Senior-level base salary and performance bonus for the right candidate. We pay for the people we want.
- Fully remote. Work from anywhere in the U.S. We've been remote since day one and we do it well.
- Real ownership. You're not a cog in a 200-person agency. You'll have a meaningful voice in how we build, who we hire, and how we work.
- Best-in-class clients. We work with serious consumer brands at meaningful spend. You'll be solving real problems on real budgets.
- A team that respects the craft. Everyone here is senior, sharp, and obsessed with the work.
