What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of email marketing experience, ideally in B2C media, publishing, or tech
- Proven success growing engaged audiences and converting readers into loyal fans or customers
- Experience with tools like Kit, Beehiiv or similar

- Bonus if you’ve worked in editorial strategy or with a media personality/voice-driven brand
- Based in the Phoenix area and excited to work on-site with a small, fast-moving team
Why Join Us
- Be part of one of the largest independent consumer tech brands in the U.S. with no debt and no investors
