PhoenixAI is looking for a hands-on, data-driven Performance Marketing Manager to own our paid media programs end to end. You will take ownership of an active, multi-channel paid program and be responsible for auditing, restructuring, and scaling it: planning and running campaigns across search, social, programmatic, and account-based advertising, testing and iterating continuously, and making sure every dollar we spend can be traced to pipeline.

As Performance Marketing Manager, you will own the strategy, execution, and measurement of PhoenixAI's paid media programs, driving qualified pipeline for our agentic AI database platform.

• 4–8 years of hands-on paid media / performance marketing experience, ideally within B2B SaaS or technology companies with enterprise sales cycles.
• Deep, hands-on expertise in Google Ads and LinkedIn Campaign Manager; experience with programmatic and account-based advertising platforms (e.g., Demandbase, 6sense, StackAdapt) is a strong plus.
• Experience building closed-loop measurement: offline conversion tracking, Salesforce campaign attribution, and reporting on cost per SQL and cost per opportunity.
• Strong analytical skills, with fluency in GA4, ad platform analytics, and spreadsheets; SQL or experience with BI tools is a plus.
• Track record of designing structured experiments and translating results into decisions.
• Experience with landing page and conversion rate optimization.
• Excellent project management skills and comfort managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Experience working cross-functionally with GTM, product marketing, content, and design teams.
• Familiarity with developer or data-engineering audiences, or with the open-source data ecosystem, is a plus.
• Bachelor's degree, preferably in Marketing, Communications, or a related field.

The base salary for this role is projected at $180,000 - $220,000 annually, plus eligibility for PhoenixAI's bonus programs. Individual compensation will be determined based on permissible, non-discriminatory factors such as skills, experience, and geographic location. We also provide a comprehensive benefits package featuring premium medical, dental, and vision coverage, life insurance, and a 401(k) retirement plan. Employees enjoy at least 16 days of PTO, parental leave, health savings options, and access to our employee assistance program.
