Job description

Senior Paid Media Buyer (Meta, TikTok & Beyond)

Location : Remote (US Time Zone)

About the Role

We're looking for a senior-level Paid Social Buyer to own and scale performance marketing campaigns across Meta, TikTok, and other paid social platforms. You're someone who's managed $80K-100K+ / day for a DTC brand, with a minimum of 50k / day of that being Meta (within the past 12 years), and you bring more than technical know-how you have strong instincts for creative strategy, deep attribution experience (Northbeam / Triple Whale), and understanding of incrementality (ex : Geo lift testing, Haus), and thrive when fully owning outcomes across spend, performance, and strategy.

This is not just a buying seat this is full-funnel performance ownership.

What You'll Be Doing

Paid Social Strategy & Execution

  • Own paid social and search performance across Meta, Google, TikTok, and emerging platforms (AppLovin, Snap, Pinterest, YouTube Shorts)
  • Build scalable campaign structures and testing plans to drive profitable growth
  • Launch, manage, and optimize $2M+ / month in ad spend with full autonomy
  • Develop media plans rooted in customer acquisition, CAC / LTV, and overall MER targets

Data, Attribution & Analysis

  • Use multi-touch attribution tools like Northbeam or Triple Whale to uncover true performance insights
  • Analyze incrementality reports through in-platform or external tools
  • Detect patterns in data, segment performance by geo / creative / audience / funnel stage, and act decisively
  • Create custom reports and dashboards to communicate wins, losses, and opportunities
  • Creative & Funnel Collaboration

  • Brief creative team on angles, hooks, and formats based on performance data and competitor analysis
  • Collaborate with CRO to ensure ads and landing pages are congruent, optimized, and continuously tested
  • Influence ad design and funnel construction with a focus on improving CVR and AOV
  • Planning, Incrementality Testing, & Media Mix Modeling
  • Evaluate media mix, timing, flighting, and platform selection based on business needs and channel maturity
  • Use tools like Haus or geo lift testing
  • Contribute to cross-platform growth strategy by identifying scale opportunities beyond Meta / TikTok
  • Align planning with client objectives across both brand and performance goals (e.g. awareness, acquisition)
  • Leadership, Communication & Innovation

  • Communicate strategies, insights, and media recommendations to internal stakeholders and leadership
  • Build structured, scalable processes to manage high daily budgets with precision and accountability
  • Stay ahead of platform changes, ad policy shifts, and industry benchmarks
  • How You'll Spend Your Time

    25% Analysis : Review campaign performance, spot trends, uncover insights

    25% Strategy : Plan experiments, identify scale ops, refine account structure

    25% Execution : Launch / optimize campaigns, troubleshoot, manage budgets

    25% Creative : Brief creative, synthesize feedback, iterate rapidly

    Why This Role is Different

  • Ownership over large budgets and outcomes you're not just pushing buttons
  • Collaborative, no-silos environment media, creative, and CRO work together
  • Strong data infrastructure and attribution tools you'll actually see what's working
  • Ambitious, high-performing team culture where the best ideas win
