Growth Marketing Manager, Lifecycle

Lyft • San Francisco, CA

3d • Hybrid

About The Position

The Lifecycle Growth Marketing team at Lyft engages with millions of Lyft riders and drivers to drive preference and usage of Lyft. The team runs hundreds of acquisition, engagement, retention and resurrection experiments every year across email, push notifications, SMS and in-app messaging surfaces. We are data-driven in everything we do. We test and measure all of our communications and tailor experiences to be personalized and contextual by audience segment. In this role, you will work closely with Product, Engineering, Analytics, Data Science, and Marketing Operations to design, test and optimize incentive and non-incentive messages and experiences.

Requirements

• 6+ years in growth marketing. You've owned a full lifecycle marketing program from the ground up — not just executing campaigns, but building strategy from high-level goals and managing a prioritized roadmap
• Strong SQL skills required — you’re comfortable pulling and QA-ing your own data and don't wait on a data partner to answer basic questions. We will test for this.
• You have a system for experiment prioritization — impact scoring, clear success metrics, and a track record of knowing when to deprioritize based on business needs
• You can take complex experiment results and translate them into clear takeaways for audiences who aren't steeped in growth marketing
• You've worked cross-functionally to advocate for your priorities and build alignment without having direct authority
• You write tight creative briefs and give feedback that is specific and actionable for designers and copywriters
• You’re hands-on with AI tools and have built automations or workflows that save your team time. Bonus if you’ve used Claude or Cursor.
• You have experience using monetary incentives to drive behavior change and impact
• You've built complex automated marketing journeys in a CRM platform and know how to identify when out-of-the-box functionality isn't enough
