About the role
- Part senior growth marketer, part data scientist, part applied-AI builder - you turn the way elite marketers think into the data models, metrics, and schemas that power Shadow's intelligence layer.
- The remaining time (roughly 25%) is spent on measurement of live media programs - guiding incrementality testing, power analysis, and MMM work, and partnering with Paid Media and Growth Strategy to turn test results into budget decisions.
- The product side of this role is not client-facing
Responsibilities
- This fusion enables our teams to deliver outsized returns by enhancing creative output, operational efficiency, and revenue generation across every stage of the customer journey.
- What began as a boutique design studio has evolved into one of the fastest-growing private companies in America and among the most effective performance media agencies of the 2020s.
- Design the analytical models and metric logic the agent reasons with - contribution margin (CM3), acquisition truth (aMER, NCAC), cohort LTV/payback, ad spend efficiency and marginal-return analysis, incrementality testing (geo lifts, conversion-lift, MMM calibration) - from raw platform data to decision-ready insight.
Requirements
- Ability to translate between marketer intuition and rigorous structure - and a strong opinion about which metrics actually matter.
- Experience with MMM, either hands-on or through vendor/partner management.
- Strong written and verbal communication - you can explain measurement tradeoffs and model logic clearly to non-technical executives and marketers.
Nice to have
- Agency or multi-brand background (pattern recognition across accounts).
- Built attribution models, forecasting/MMM, or internal analytics dashboards.
- Experience with CDPs, server-side tracking, clean rooms, exposure logs, or other privacy-safe measurement environments.
- A power AI user.
- You've embedded AI into every workflow you touch and you think in systems - not one-off prompts, but repeatable structures that compound.
- Entrepreneurial.
- You don't need much direction to move fast, you pivot when the situation demands it, and what you ship is production-grade, not a prototype you hand off for someone else to finish.
- Not the bar: deep data-engineering/infra ownership, or leading day-to-day client relationships.
Benefits
- Company-sponsored medical, dental, and vision coverage.
- Darkroom offers a robust 401(k) program with company match and profit-sharing opportunities to help you save and grow as the company grows.
- Flexible parental leave to support new parents during this important transition.
