This is a Manager role where you will need to set a vision and strategy for how we retain people, collaborate with cross-functional leaders in Fulfillment, BizDev, and CPG, and also hire and support PMs for your teams. This newly formed pillar is comprised of four teams: Notifications Growth, Recurring Orders, Express Membership, and Order Feedback. A brief description of each is as follows:

  • The Notifications Growth team creates the organic and campaign strategy for notifications (push, email, SMS) to drive increased app usage and prevent churn. Notifications are valuable tool to help people remember when to reorder, become aware of time-sensitive notifications, keep track of their existing orders, and discover new products and services that are relevant to them.
  • The Recurring Orders team creates new features and improves current functionality that makes it easier for consumers to re-order grocery products, whether 1-time or on a recurring basis. This includes improving our strategy and execution of the "Buy it Again" feature, creating a "Subscribe & Save" functionality for predictable purchases, create and optimize speciality buying campaigns (about highly relevant sale items, seasonal offers, free delivery during specific time windows, etc) by leveraging the notifications platform, in-app promotions, and storefront.
  • The Express Membership team creates a strategy for Express as an ecosystem that increases product adoption by adding features that address new/more jobs to be done by customers (more savings, better delivery availability, exclusive offers, loyalty rewards, etc). This team also optimizes funnels to help new, stale, and churned Express subscribers deepen their engagement.
  • The Order Feedback team owns the the UI and data analysis of customer feedback critical to retention / churn prevention. This team will work closely with Fulfillment teams to find collaborative solutions for improving retention.

Because a person may become disabled at any time, we are required to ask all of our employees to update their information every five years. You may voluntarily self-identify as having a disability on this form without fear of any punishment because you did not identify as having a disability earlier.
