The role:

This role reports to the Head of Growth and operates at the crossroads of strategy, creative, and technology.

Creative strategy is your core: you understand audiences deeply, know what makes ads convert, you are obsessed with testing and can navigate the nuances of different formats. Working closely with the Growth Marketing team, you'll turn strategic priorities into scalable creative systems, testable concepts, and high-performing assets. You'll also architect the AI-driven workflows and production pipelines that multiply output and compress learning cycles.

Use AI to accelerate creation without replacing craft, from rapid prototyping to advanced experimentation.

Scale Creative Production & Velocity: Oversee a pipeline capable of producing a high volume of weekly assets across UGC, motion, product, chef storytelling, and paid media formats. Blend human creativity with AI-enabled workflows to increase speed, reduce bottlenecks, and uphold quality. Build repeatable systems that transform big ideas into scalable, test-ready assets.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with Brand, Growth, CRM, Studio Production, Product, and Engineering to deploy AI-powered creative across campaigns, onboarding flows, lifecycle marketing, and personalization efforts. Partner with Production and Studio teams to balance AI workflows with traditional craft, and collaborate with technical teams to translate creative needs into tools and automated solutions.

Creative Quality & Brand Integrity: Maintain a high bar for taste, clarity, and craft across all assets, whether AI-assisted or human-made. Ensure CookUnity's creative expression remains chef-driven, high-quality, and emotionally resonant.
