Job Description

We’re hiring an elite Senior Media Buyer to completely own our Google and YouTube advertising ecosystem.

This is not a role for someone who sets up campaigns and checks in once a week. We need an absolute killer in the Google Ads platform who has personally managed and scaled budgets to multiple 7-figures per month profitably.

You will sit in the platform every single day, obsessively researching the competition, mining search terms, testing new angles, and finding ways to scale spend while maintaining or improving efficiency. You will be the architect of our search and video acquisition strategy.

What you'll own

  • Manage, scale, and optimize Google Ads and YouTube campaigns with multi-million dollar monthly budgets
  • Obsessively research competitor ads, landing pages, and offers to reverse-engineer their success and beat them
  • Build out and execute a relentless testing roadmap for YouTube creatives, Search copy, Performance Max structures, and landing pages
  • Mine search query reports daily to uncover new keyword opportunities and ruthlessly eliminate wasted spend
  • Partner closely with the Creative Director to dictate what YouTube creatives and ad copy need to be produced based on hard data
  • Report daily and weekly on CAC, ROAS, and scaling opportunities, taking full accountability for channel profitability

What we're looking for

Must-haves

  • You have personally scaled Google and YouTube accounts to multiple 7-figures per month in profitable ad spend
  • You are an absolute expert in the Google Ads platform, including Search, YouTube, and Performance Max
  • You are a relentless tester who never settles for "good enough" and is always looking for the next winning variation
  • You constantly spy on the competition, using tools and manual research to stay ahead of market trends
  • You are highly analytical, comfortable living in spreadsheets, and make decisions based purely on data
  • You take extreme ownership of your numbers and do not wait for instructions to optimize or scale
  • You understand how to bridge the gap between media buying and creative strategy

Strong plus

  • Experience scaling high-growth DTC, consumer tech, or premium hardware brands
  • Deep understanding of YouTube creative frameworks and what drives video conversions
  • Experience managing large-scale budgets across international markets (US and Europe)

Who this is NOT for

  • You need detailed onboarding and step-by-step instructions on how to structure a campaign
  • You have only managed small budgets (under $100k/month) or have never scaled a brand aggressively
  • You prefer "set it and forget it" media buying over daily, hands-on optimization
  • You rely entirely on agencies or junior buyers to do the actual in-platform work
  • You are not comfortable being held accountable for strict CAC and ROAS targets at high scale

Who you are

  • You take initiative and figure things out
  • You care about results and conversions, not just activity
  • You are fast, direct, and focused
  • You are comfortable operating with high expectations
  • You communicate clearly and without noise

What we offer

  • High ownership and direct impact on company growth
  • Work closely with founders and senior team
  • Fast paced environment with real responsibility
  • Competitive compensation
