Cloaked

<div><p>Cloaked is a consumer privacy and identity platform on a mission to give people back control of their personal data. We let anyone generate unlimited identities - masked emails, phone numbers, and payment cards - scrub their information off data-broker sites, and shield themselves from spam, scams, and breaches, all from one app. Backed by a $375M Series B, we've protected 10M+ identities and removed 1B+ records from the data brokers who profit off personal information. Now we're building the AI-native future of privacy: autonomous agents that monitor, manage, and defend your digital footprint for you.</p><p></p><p><b>
About the role</b></p><p>
We&rsquo;re looking for a <b>Product Marketing Manager, Growth</b> to own acquisition scale-up and funnel efficiency. Reporting into marketing, you'll live in the funnel - shipping experiments at high velocity and building new acquisition funnels with engineering to move how efficiently we acquire and convert users. If you're a growth-minded product marketer energized by conversion mechanics and test velocity, come build with us!</p><p></p><p><b>
What you'll do?</b></p><ul><li><p>
Own a high-velocity experimentation program across the acquisition funnel - landing pages, Scan OTP checkout, paywall, and onboarding. Hypothesis build instrument read ship.</p></li><li><p>
Stand up entirely new acquisition funnels for new channels and product surfaces, from concept to live, in close partnership with engineering.</p></li><li><p>
Attack the known drop-offs - Scan-page OTP fall-off and checkout drop-off - and lift step-by-step conversion across the journey.</p></li><li><p>
Partner with our paid team to scale spend efficiently while protecting funnel quality as volume grows.</p></li><li><p>
Embed with product and engineering to ship funnel changes and own experiment and tracking infrastructure (PostHog, server-side GTM, CAPI, S2S).</p></li></ul><p></p><p><b>
What skills and experiences will help you?</b></p><ul><li><p>
4&ndash;6 years in growth, PMM, growth PM, or conversion-focused marketing at a consumer subscription / app business; privacy, fintech, or B2C SaaS a strong plus.</p></li><li><p>
You've owned an experimentation program end-to-end and can show the conversion and CAC impact.</p></li><li><p>
You've built or materially rebuilt acquisition funnels - not just optimized copy, but shipped structural funnel changes with engineering.</p></li><li><p>
Strongly analytical: you build funnel and cohort analyses from scratch, read A/B tests to significance, and are fluent in a query tool (SQL / PostHog / GA4).</p></li><li><p>
Technically conversant: you can spec funnel and tracking work, talk credibly with engineers, and reason about instrumentation and attribution.</p></li><li><p>
Self-directed: you take a vague funnel problem, shape it into a workstream, and come back with a recommendation, not just questions.</p></li><li><p>
Fluent with AI tooling (Claude, ChatGPT) for drafting, analysis, and productivity.</p></li><li><p>
Bonus: shipped a funnel/CRO win with a quantified result, launched a new acquisition funnel or channel from zero to live, or run an experimentation program with a documented cadence and win rate.</p></li></ul><p></p><p><b>
What do we like?</b></p><ul><li><p><b>
Lives in the funnel.</b> Genuinely energized by conversion mechanics and test velocity; treats the funnel as a product.</p></li><li><p><b>
Builds with engineering.</b> Comfortable speccing work, sitting with engineers, and shipping structural changes &mdash; not just briefs.</p></li><li><p><b>
Data-honest.</b> Trusts the numbers over the narrative, won't ship a test they can't read, calls out a broken metric.</p></li><li><p><b>
Bias to action.</b> Ships rough, iterates fast, doesn't wait for a perfect brief.</p></li><li><p><b>
Comfortable on a small team.</b> The work is unglamorous as often as it's strategic.</p></li><li><p>
Bonus tooling: attribution infrastructure (Meta CAPI, server-side GTM, S2S), Snowflake or another data warehouse, Meta Ads Manager / Google Ads / AppLovin, Webflow or comparable, Figma / FigJam, and Customer.io. Existing Cloaked user or a clear point of view on the privacy category is a plus.</p></li></ul><p></p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>
