Qualifications: 7+ years in e-commerce leadership roles, ideally at high-growth DTC brands. Deep technical understanding of modern headless commerce (Vercel, Sanity, Shopify Plus or similar). Proven success managing multi-storefront global e-commerce operations. Strong experience building and running CRO programs and experimentation roadmaps. Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional teams: product, design, dev, QA, and site ops. Comfortable operating at both strategic and tactical levels—balancing vision with execution.
