  • You’ll own the creative strategy for AppLovin across multiple SKUs, shaping how we test, learn, and scale creative that drives profitable growth. This is not a role attached to a single product pod; instead, you’ll operate at the channel level, identifying what works on AppLovin and translating those learnings into repeatable systems that can be applied across the business.
  • You’ll work closely with Growth & Creative teams in charge of individual products to develop performance-driven concepts, influence campaign decision-making, and build the creative playbook for a channel we’re looking to grow from the ground up.

  • Distil learnings into actionable testing hypotheses and creative directions that align with business goals and customer psychology.
  • Develop a strong understanding of how creatives should be adapted to suit AppLovin’s environment and performance model.
  • Build and manage a structured testing roadmap across concepts, hooks, angles, offers, formats, and messaging variations.
  • Continuously identify opportunities to refresh, iterate, and scale creative based on performance signals.
  • Balance testing velocity with strategic thinking, ensuring we are not only generating new ideas, but learning systematically from results.
  • Partner closely with media buyers to interpret creative performance and influence campaign decisions based on what is resonating.
  • Help determine which creative directions deserve more spend, further iteration, or strategic repositioning.
  • Bring a creative lens into campaign planning so that media buying decisions are informed by strong concept logic and testing insights.
  • Develop direct response ad concepts designed to attract attention, communicate value clearly, and drive action.
  • Craft ideas that align with different offers, customer motivations, objections, and stages of purchase intent.
  • Ensure creative is not just visually strong, but strategically designed to improve acquisition efficiency.
  • Apply performance creative learnings across a portfolio of products rather than focusing on a single SKU.
  • Adapt concepts and messaging to different products, audiences, and commercial priorities while maintaining a disciplined testing approach.
  • Help the wider business identify which creative patterns are broadly scalable versus offer-specific.
  • Identify bottlenecks in the customer acquisition journey and propose creative solutions that improve performance.
  • Test and refine key levers such as hooks, offer framing, problem-solution messaging, proof points, product demonstration, and calls to action.
  • Use performance insights to sharpen how we communicate value and reduce friction from first impression through conversion.
  • Build a clear and actionable creative playbook for AppLovin that gives the team a strong foundation for scaling the channel.
