Responsibilities

Drive ecommerce performance. Help drive revenue, conversion, AOV, revenue per visitor, margin and profitability. Dig into what's driving the business, identify opportunities and turn insights into action.

Lead digital merchandising. Shape how Criquet shows up across the digital storefront — from homepage and navigation to collections, PDPs, search, recommendations and cart. Connect campaigns, traffic and inventory to create a better shopping experience.

Lead CRO and testing. Develop and manage a testing roadmap across landing pages, product discovery, PDPs, sizing, recommendations, bundles, mobile experience and checkout. Develop hypotheses, test them, learn and keep improving.

Grow organic discovery. Lead our SEO strategy and work closely with SEO and development partners to grow qualified organic traffic and improve how Criquet and our products show up across search. Stay ahead of AI-driven product discovery and identify opportunities across AEO and other emerging search channels.

Turn data into decisions. Build a clear picture of how the ecommerce business is performing and use those insights to determine what we should do next — not simply report what happened.

Shape the ecommerce roadmap. Work with our development partners to prioritize site improvements, tests, integrations and new functionality based on their potential impact on the business.

Manage the tech stack and key partners. Oversee our ecommerce technology across Shopify, personalization, CRM and Klaviyo, SEO, upselling, analytics and other tools. Understand what we're paying for, how we're using it and whether it's delivering value.

Explore new growth opportunities. Evaluate marketplaces and other emerging commerce channels to determine where they make sense for Criquet, our customers and the bottom line.

Work across the business. Partner closely with Marketing, CX, Product, Wholesale and outside partners to connect the customer experience with broader company priorities.

Deep Shopify experience

Strong ecommerce analytics and digital merchandising instincts

Experience building and managing CRO and A/B testing programs

Experience identifying and launching new ecommerce channels or marketplace opportunities

A soft spot for old‑school style done right doesn't hurt
