• Testing & Optimization: Maintain an A/B testing roadmap across all channels to constantly improve open rates, CTRs, and conversion metrics.
• Copywriting: Draft compelling copy for all emails, SMS, and push notifications with the ability to switch between multiple brand voices, targeting unique customer personas.
• Compliance & Support: Serve as the point person for legal/compliance requests and handle ad-hoc service requests from agents (e.g., manual unsubscribes, journey hotfixes, and timestamp audits).
• Cross-Brand Synergy: Collaborate closely with the Outdoorsy lifecycle team to develop Roamly upsell content specifically for the Marketplace host audience.

Primary:

• Automated email journeys refreshed with new creative and copy.

• Experience: 2–4 years of experience in lifecycle marketing, CRM, or marketing automation.
• Industry Background: Prior experience in Insurtech or Fintech is highly preferred, with an understanding of the regulatory nuances of insurance communications.
• AI Proficiency: Intermediate level aptitude with AI tooling including Gemini, prior experience working for companies or clients utilizing AI (e.g. Jasper).
