About Us

Shameless Snacks makes low-sugar gummy candy that tastes like the real thing. Every bag has 3g of sugar, is packed with fiber, and is vegan and gluten-free. Our sour and fruit gummies are sold on Amazon, DTC, TikTok, and at major retailers across the country.

We’re not a startup hoping something works. We’ve taken better-for-you candy from an idea to retail shelves nationwide and built a brand that consumers love. We move with the speed of a startup: small teams with real ownership and accountability.

This is the place where you’ll see the entire machine: flavor development, formulation, packaging, co-manufacturing, compliance, marketing, marketplace strategy, retail, all in one team. If you want to build and ship a food brand at scale, there is no better place than this.

The Role

We're hiring a Senior Growth Manager to own our paid media strategy and execution across Meta, TikTok, AppLovin, YouTube, Google and new channels. You'll be the strategic brain behind the buying: set the plan, scale what works, cut what doesn't, and drive toward contribution margin, LTV:CAC and payback, not just ROAS.

What You’ll Do

• Paid media strategy and execution across Meta, TikTok, AppLovin, YouTube and Google, within the budget set by the Head of Growth. Track daily and weekly pacing against revenue, new-customer and margin goals.
• Lead the buying team. Manage the Media Buying Coordinator; own killing, scaling and reducing spend.
• Profitable scaling. Grow spend profitably and know which channels, audiences and offers bring customers who subscribe and stay.
• Creative strategy. Analyze why ads win or lose, research competitors and formats, and brief the creative team with clear insights.
• Funnels for new audiences. Plan full funnels (ad, landing page, offer) and brief Creative, Dev/CRO and Design.
• AI-driven workflows. Use AI in day-to-day buying decisions, not just reporting.
• Forecasting and budget allocation. Recommend the channel split and forecast spend, new customers, contribution margin and payback.
• Measurement and reporting. Report blended and channel-level CAC, MER, CM%, LTV:CAC and payback; share a weekly recommendation with the Head of Growth.
• Emerging channels. Test new channels with clear success criteria and scale what works.
