To be considered for an interview, please make sure your application is full in line with the job specs as found below. We’re looking for a CRO Specialist/Manager to lead conversion optimization across the website. This is a high-impact, execution-first role focused on making our website a high-performing conversion engine through funnel analysis, A/B testing, and conversion rate optimization from site visit to sign up and down the funnel to closed won deals. You’ll work closely with Data, Marketing, and Tech teams to build landing pages, run experiments, and optimize lead forms. You’ll also be the go-to for measuring test impact and uncovering insights in user behavior and funnel performance. This role requires a blend of technical expertise, strategic understanding, and project management. This is an IC role with real ownership.

Landing Page Optimization: Collaborate with our designers and developers to build and test high-converting landing pages using Webflow and Figma. Continuously refine layouts, copy, CTAs, and visual elements to maximize engagement. Experimentation & Testing: Launch and manage A/B and multivariate tests across web journeys. Use a hypothesis-driven approach to validate ideas and drive measurable lifts in conversion rates. Analytics & Insights: Use data to identify and prioritize enhancements. Develop journey maps and analyze performance using GA4, heatmaps, session recordings, and funnel data to identify drop-off points and opportunities. Own reporting on test results and experiment impact cross-functionally. Lifecycle Funnel Support: Partner with lifecycle marketing to optimize conversion through email flows and nurture sequences. Test form steps, email cadences, and CTA placement to improve lead quality. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Build scalable processes and workflows. Work closely with Marketing, Tech, and Product teams to ensure seamless test implementation and shared visibility into funnel performance, and identify and execute cross-functional opportunities for new features to drive growth. Performance Reporting: Build clear dashboards and documentation to track conversion rates, share learnings, and inform prioritization. Industry Expert: Stay up-to-date on digital trends and industry best practices to keep the website high performing, responsive and compliant. Skills & Qualifications

Data Analysis & Reporting: Strong working knowledge of GA4, heatmap tools, A/B testing tools and funnel analysis frameworks. Cross-Functional Communication: Able to work seamlessly with designers, developers, and marketers to execute fast, high-quality experiments. Form Optimization: Experience improving form UX, multi-step flows, and CTAs to increase conversion without sacrificing lead quality.
