  • Manage product lifecycle online, including SKU setup, enrichment, categorization, cross-sells/upsells, and asset management.
  • Coordinate merchandising for seasonal launches, sitewide promos, and new product rollouts with flawless execution.
Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO)
  • Develop and execute CRO strategies across site funnels using insights from tools like GA4, Hotjar, and Shopify analytics.
  • Partner with UX and Marketing to identify friction points and lead A/B and multivariate tests focused on improving conversion, bounce, engagement, and average order value.
  • Drive personalization and recommendation strategies leveraging platforms such as Dynamic Yield, Nosto, Bloomreach, etc.
  • Track and report on performance of tests, product placements, content updates, and layout changes—turning insights into clear action plans.
Cross-Functional Leadership & Quality Control
  • Work with Creative and Content teams to ensure merchandising assets are consistent with brand standards and support the user journey.
  • Conduct regular QA/UAT to maintain accuracy of content, product data, SEO tags, and technical functionality across mobile and desktop.
  • Champion ongoing optimization of merchandising and CRO playbooks, establishing scalable best practices for future growth.
What We’re Looking For
  • 4–6 years of eCommerce site merchandising and/or CRO experience, preferably with a digitally native or DTC brand.
  • Strong command of Shopify Plus (or comparable CMS/PIM), and proficiency with testing and analytics tools like GA4, Looker Studio, Hotjar, VWO, or Optimizely.
  • Deep understanding of digital shopping behavior, funnel optimization, UX principles, and data interpretation.
  • Experience working with personalization engines and merchandising automation tools (e.g., Nosto, Dynamic Yield).
  • High attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and an ability to manage complex, cross-functional initiatives.
  • Passion for creating elegant, high-converting digital experiences backed by performance data.
