Lifecycle Marketing Lead

Credit Genie • San Francisco, CA

2d • $185,000 - $210,000 • Onsite

About The Position

Credit Genie is seeking a Senior Lifecycle Marketing Manager to build, experiment with, and expand our lifecycle marketing strategy across loyalty, engagement, and retention. This role will own the end-to-end customer lifecycle, managing every message, moment, and journey to transform first-time users into loyal, financially healthier customers. The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker who can also execute rapidly, comfortable with both high-level strategy development and hands-on implementation. Collaboration with Product, Design, Research, Data, Compliance, Customer Service, and Brand teams is essential to ensure a consistent and cohesive customer experience.

Requirements

• 8+ years of experience leading all aspects of Lifecycle Marketing (CRM, retention, engagement, and/or loyalty) in a B2C environment.
• Proven track record of building and scaling lifecycle programs that measurably improved activation, retention, churn, and LTV, ideally for a consumer mobile app.
• Deep CRM and automation fluency: hands-on expertise across email, push, SMS, and in-app messaging, with Braze, and strong command of segmentation and journey orchestration.
• Strong blend of strategy and execution: you can write, build, analyze, and ship as effectively as you can plan.
• Highly analytical: confident using data and insights to shape messaging, design experiments, measure performance, and drive growth.
• AI-first operator: you lean heavily on AI in your day-to-day work and treat it as a force multiplier, using AI tools to draft and iterate on copy, generate variants for testing, build segments and journeys faster, summarize results, and automate repetitive lifecycle work.
• Excellent communicator with the ability to distill complexity into clarity for cross-functional partners and senior stakeholders.
• Comfortable working in fast-paced, dynamic environments where you can help create structure and influence outcomes.

Nice To Haves

• Experience in fintech, financial wellness, or adjacent industries is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Own lifecycle strategy end to end: Define and execute the strategy for engagement, retention, and loyalty across the full customer journey, from onboarding and activation to re-engagement, win-back, and long-term advocacy. Ensuring alignment with overall business objectives and customer needs.
• Build and scale CRM programs: Design, build, and optimize cross-channel lifecycle programs across email, push, SMS, and in-app messaging using advanced segmentation, personalization, triggers, and automation. Move customers to the right action at the right moment, at scale.
• Drive retention and reduce churn: Develop the segmentation, targeting, and journey logic that improves activation, deepens engagement, reduces churn, and grows lifetime value. Build proactive save, win-back, and re-engagement journeys grounded in customer behavior.
• Design loyalty and engagement: Shape how Credit Genie rewards, recognizes, and re-engages customers over time. Build the loyalty and engagement frameworks that turn repeat usage into durable habits and lasting financial-wellness relationships.
• Own messaging and lifecycle narrative: Craft clear, compelling lifecycle messaging and value propositions that ladder up to our broader brand strategy. Build scalable frameworks for consistent storytelling across every lifecycle touchpoint.
• Run a test-and-learn engine: Build a rigorous experimentation practice, A/B and multivariate testing, cohort analysis, and holdouts to continuously improve performance. Define success metrics, post-launch evaluation, and iteration plans for every program.
• Champion customer and market insights: Partner with Research and Data Science to turn user insights and behavioral trends into actionable lifecycle strategies that shape both marketing execution and product direction.
• Establish operating rigor: Build the repeatable processes, playbooks, and launch frameworks that scale as the company grows, so lifecycle becomes a durable, measurable growth engine rather than a series of one-off campaigns.
• Run a tight operation: Own the day-to-day health and quality of the program — email deliverability and IP reputation, push opt-in rates, and message frequency and send discipline. Maintain QA standards, launch checklists, naming conventions, and campaign documentation so every send is accurate, on-brand, compliant, and reliable as volume scales.
• Collaborate cross-functionally: Navigate complex stakeholder environments and communicate effectively with Product, Design, Compliance, and Customer Service to ensure a cohesive, compliant, and on-brand customer experience.
