- Design, build, and own growth surfaces across the mobile funnel , install, activation, onboarding, lifecycle, conversion, retention, and paid upgrade moments , on Android.

- Lead experiments end-to-end, from hypothesis and instrumentation through implementation, analysis, and rollout, shipping many in parallel despite app release cadence.

- Own in-app purchase and paywall surfaces: billing integrations, subscription and credit purchase flows, entitlement correctness, and pricing and packaging experiments.

- Build push and lifecycle notification experiences that earn their opt-in , permission prompts, targeting, timing, deep links back into the right task, and the instrumentation to prove they drive retention rather than churn.

- Familiarity with A/B testing and experimentation platforms.

- Comfort data-informed decision-making.

- Strong product judgment; you translate user behavior and growth opportunities into simple, effective technical solutions.
