We are seeking a forward-thinking, AI-first leader to shape and drive the evolution of Marketing Innovation across the organization. Sitting within the Marketing function, this role is responsible for defining how AI transforms marketing—from how we plan and create, to how we execute, personalize, and scale.

As Global Head of Marketing Innovation, you will lead the transition from traditional marketing operations and tooling toward AI-powered workflows, agent-driven automation, and intelligent decision systems. You will define what capabilities marketing needs to succeed in an AI-native environment and translate those into clear, prioritized roadmaps in close partnership with Product, Engineering, and Data teams.

This role goes beyond managing technology—it is about rethinking how marketing works. You will act as the primary bridge between Marketing and technical teams, ensuring AI solutions are aligned with business goals, scalable across markets, and embedded into day-to-day workflows. You will also lead a small but high-impact team, including an AI Enablement specialist responsible for driving adoption across the organization.

The role reports directly to the Senior Director of Growth Marketing & Innovation.

• Continuously identify and scale automation opportunities across the organization.

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Analytics teams to build and deploy AI solutions.
• Ensure alignment between marketing needs, technical capabilities, and long-term system architecture.
• Influence without direct authority, driving execution through strong cross-functional collaboration.

AI Adoption & Enablement

• Own the global adoption of AI solutions across Marketing.
• Lead and mentor an AI Enablement specialist focused on training, documentation, and day-to-day usage.
• Establish clear processes, playbooks, and best practices to ensure teams effectively leverage AI capabilities.

• Ensure AI solutions meet standards for quality, consistency, and brand alignment.

• Evaluate and manage external AI tools, platforms, and partners.
• Ensure the ecosystem supports long-term flexibility and avoids unnecessary complexity.

Our humble expectations

• 8+ years of experience in product, AI/automation, marketing innovation, or related roles in high-scale digital environments.
• Strong product mindset, with experience translating business needs into scalable technical or AI-driven solutions.
• Solid understanding of marketing platforms and ecosystems (e.g., marketing automation, CRM, mobile attribution, ad tech), with the ability to evaluate trade-offs without needing to be hands-on in system configuration or engineering
• Hands-on understanding of AI capabilities (e.g., LLMs, agents, automation tools) and how they apply to marketing workflows.
• Experience working cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Data, and Analytics teams.
• Proven ability to operate in ambiguous environments and build structure where none exists.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence senior leaders.

Nice to have:

• Understanding of Marketing Automation and AdTech systems (e.g., Iterable, Braze, Salesforce, Appsflyer, Adjust) 
• Basic data fluency (e.g., SQL or analytics tools)

What we offer

This is a rare opportunity to get under the hood of a massive growth engine and actually build the tools that make it run. You won’t just be managing existing software; you’ll be the strategic architect responsible for moving us away from manual, "copy-paste" work toward a smart, automated system powered by AI and real-time data.

You will have the mandate to bridge the gap between Marketing, Product, and Engineering, making sure our tech stack is a competitive advantage rather than a bottleneck. Whether it’s building a marketing engine to win back millions of users or launching ML-powered personalization that hits the right customer at the perfect moment, you will be the one making it technically possible.

If you want a high-ownership role where you can solve real structural problems and lead a team of technical experts in a fast-paced, global environment, this is it.

Next steps

Our hiring process prioritizes quality over speed to ensure we find the right long-term fit for this critical role. Candidates move through the process one step at a time, typically starting with an initial screen and a hiring manager interview, followed by a peer interview and a take-home case study presentation, concluding with a final value-fit conversation.

We are looking for a Product Manager to join the Courier Group, Compliance Team. The Courier Group builds products that power the end-to-end courier experience and logistics at Wolt, from onboarding to earnings, engagement, task assignment, and compliance. The group spans multiple product teams working together to ensure that couriers can start, operate, and grow on Wolt safely, efficiently, and in compliance with local regulations.

The Compliance Team ensures that Wolt’s courier platform operates within the boundaries of diverse regulatory environments, while maintaining a simple and trusted experience for couriers, third-party service providers, and internal teams. This includes identity verification, document management, classification, privacy safeguards, and scalable compliance automation.

What You’ll Do

As the Product Manager for Compliance, you’ll work with a cross-functional team of exceptional engineers, designers, analysts, and product people in a high-impact, high-visibility role. You’ll define the vision and roadmap for courier compliance at Wolt, balancing business scalability, user trust, and regulatory integrity. You’ll connect with country teams to understand local regulatory requirements and cultural nuances, collaborate with legal and operations partners, and align with other product teams to make sure compliance flows are seamlessly embedded across the courier lifecycle.

Your work will include leading multiple projects and cross-team initiatives across the product lifecycle, from discovery to delivery. You’ll partner with Legal, Operations, and Policy teams to design compliance systems that are both locally adaptive and globally scalable. You’ll ensure that product experiences for different courier models remain clearly distinct and compliant, while driving automation and efficiency in ID verification, document management, and audit workflows. A key part of your role will be developing a deep understanding of couriers, regulators, and internal users, enabling you to build solutions that make compliance seamless and effortless for everyone involved.

Our Humble Expectations

You could come to this role from a variety of backgrounds, but ideally, you have:

• Demonstrated experience as Product Manager, preferably within B2C product domains
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders and simplify complex legal or technical topics.
• A mix of analytical ability, technical understanding, and business judgment — with the go-getter mindset of a “start-up CEO.”
• A strong track record of working with and coaching cross-functional teams, including engineers, data analysts, finance, legal, and ops.
• Experience building globally scalable systems that adapt to local market variations.

Next Steps

The position will be filled as soon as we find the right person, so make sure to apply as soon as you realize you really, really want to join us!

The compensation will be a negotiable combination of monthly pay and DoorDash RSUs. The latter makes it exceptionally easy to be excited about our company growing and doing well, as you’ll own a piece of the pie.

JOIN YOUSICIAN

Yousician impacts and enriches the lives of millions of people by empowering them to play music they love, learn something new, and nourish their well-being. We merge music and tech to amplify the everyday. We reimagine the way people learn to play so that everyone can play. 

And, you don't need to be a musician to join Yousician!

We're a band of passionate professionals who love what they do, are great at it, and move to the beat of the same drum. We're for all players: from newbies to seasoned pros. If you are looking for a rewarding career opportunity that helps shape the future of music-tech, you're in the right place!

Make Musicality as Common as Literacy

At Yousician, we reimagine music education for a billion people. Our products, Yousician and GuitarTuna, are the world's leading music learning and tuning apps, used by millions of people to learn, play, and tune their instruments every day.

We believe subscription revenue is won in the details, not in the pitch deck. Paywall copy, trial lengths, price points, renewal offers, reactivation campaigns: each one is a craft, and each one moves the number when it is done right. We are hiring a Product Manager with strong monetization craft to run experimentation across both of our products

The Role

Your mission is clear: you help turn players into paying subscribers, and keep them, across Yousician and GuitarTuna.

You will run paywall, pricing, and offer experimentation end to end for both products. Hypothesis, brief, ship, readout, decision. You will maintain the live revenue forecast that ties every test back to the quarterly plan, and reconcile it monthly against what actually landed. Multiple tests run every week. Every one of them has a written brief and a clean readout.

This is a senior specialist role. You come in with a point of view on paywall mechanics, price point elasticity, trial length trade-offs, holdout discipline, and primary-metric selection. You will report to the Head of Revenue and work closely with them to translate monetization priorities into a concrete experimentation roadmap. You will work day to day with embedded engineers on both products, a test designer, and a data partner. You are a strong monetization specialist and a key thought partner on experimentation, pricing, paywalls, and offers.

What You'll Do

• Run the Experiment Cadence: Own the weekly operating rhythm for monetization experimentation across both products, including planning, launch readiness, readouts, and decision follow-through. Ensure each experiment has a clear hypothesis, success metric, guardrails, and decision rule before it goes live.
• Own the Test Portfolio Execution: Translate agreed monetization priorities into a concrete test roadmap across Yousician, GuitarTuna mobile, and the GuitarTuna web experience. Design variants, write briefs, specify subscription-platform configuration, and work with engineering on delivery.
• Maintain the Revenue View: Maintain the live monetization forecast and experiment-level revenue view, and help reconcile plan vs actual together with the Head of Revenue and Finance.
• Partner with Finance on Pricing: You build the case for every price change, walk Finance through the numbers, and manage the rollout across iOS, Android, and Web with the regional and store constraints that come with it.
• Keep the Scorecard Honest: Maintain the weekly Monetization Tracker and experiment readout cadence, ensuring that key metrics, forecasts, and decisions stay consistent and reliable. Partner with the Head of Revenue, Data, and Finance to investigate mismatches and keep the monetization view decision-ready.
  
  

Who You Are

• You bring strong monetization craft: You have shipped across the full spectrum: paywall copy, paywall placement, price points, trial variants, intro offers, winback campaigns. You know where the wins usually come from and where the traps are.
• You are resourceful and proactive: You do not wait for perfect conditions. You can spot practical opportunities, identify problems worth solving, and move things forward in an under-resourced or ambiguous setup. Whether through tooling, lightweight prototyping, or creative cross-functional problem solving, you know how to turn momentum into shipped work.
• You think in numbers: Baseline, uplift, volume, EUR. When you pitch a test, you already know what it is worth. When you kill one, you can explain why in one sentence.
• You have opinions on methodology: You have views on MDE-setting, holdout design, sample ratio mismatch, guardrail thresholds, and sequential testing. You can defend them and you update them when the data tells you to.
• You decide by the data: You have killed winning-looking tests when the stats did not support them, and you have shipped underwhelming-looking ones when the logic did. You do not fall in love with hypotheses.
• You understand the full system: Monetization decisions do not live in isolation. A price change can affect winbacks, a paywall test can change retention, and a trial decision can shift downstream value. You can think across the full subscriber lifecycle and make decisions with LTV in mind, not just immediate conversion.
• You communicate directly: You write briefs that engineers can build and readouts that Finance can trust. Conclusion first, numbers second, caveats third.

Requirements

• 5+ years in monetization, paywall, pricing, or subscription PM roles at a consumer subscription business. Mobile preferred, web acceptable.
• Shipped at least 30 paywall, pricing, or offer experiments you personally scoped, briefed, and read out.
• Fluency with experimentation platforms such as Eppo, Statsig, GrowthBook, Optimizely, or an in-house equivalent. You understand how metrics, guardrails, and variants are configured, and can work effectively with data and engineering to ensure experiments are set up correctly.
• Working knowledge of mobile subscription mechanics: trial lengths, intro offers, grace periods, renewal cycles, refund behaviour on iOS and Android.
• Strong analytical fluency with SQL familiarity. You are comfortable validating analysis, interrogating results, and partnering closely with analysts on experiment readouts. 
• Ideally, you have direct experience with RevenueCat, Adapty, Purchasely, or a comparable subscription platform.
• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.
• Based in Berlin or Helsinki.

Why You'll Love Working Here

• Impact: Your work directly influences the P&L across two products with millions of users. The tests you ship translate into EUR every week. Few PM roles have such a short feedback loop.
• Ownership: You own the monetization experimentation engine and have direct influence on how monetization ideas are shaped, tested, and scaled. You work closely with the Head of Revenue to translate strategy into shipped outcomes.
• Culture: We are a band, not just a company. We have jam sessions in the office, great gear, and a team that cares about the mission.
• The Basics: Competitive salary, lunch benefits, culture vouchers, and a modern office in Helsinki and Berlin.

How to Apply

Please submit your CV and a brief cover letter describing the last paywall, pricing, or offer experiment you shipped. Tell us the hypothesis, the result, the decision you made, and what you would do differently next time.

We’re a global team of over 400 people, working together to push the boundaries of open-source technology and multi-cloud solutions. Our vision is to help developers, builders, and creators bring their ideas to life with speed and simplicity, by providing a cloud data platform that makes open-source databases, search, streaming, and application infrastructure easily accessible to everyone. 

The Role

As Head of Legal, you will be Aiven’s most senior legal leader, reporting to the CFO and working as a trusted partner across the executive team. You’ll lead and develop a small, world-class legal team that enables the business to move fast, win commercially, and scale globally.

Aiven has ambitious goals to build the AI infrastructure that developers want. We make open source databases, search, streaming, and application infrastructure accessible to every developer. In a world where AI has made building easier than ever, we handle the underlying complexity so builders can focus on what they're actually building.

At Aiven, we believe legal is a business accelerator — not a gatekeeper. You’ll be here to find the best path forward together with your stakeholders. You’ll bring commercial savviness, a genuine partnership mindset, and the judgment to lead your team in managing risk and drive impactful results with stakeholders. You’ll be embedded in the business, shaping deals, guiding strategy, and helping the company grow with confidence.

What You’ll Do

• Own and shape Aiven’s global legal strategy, partnering closely with the CFO, CEO, and executive leadership to align the legal function with business objectives and growth priorities — and lead and develop a small, high-performing legal team with a culture of speed, pragmatism, and commercial acumen.
• Lead the team in driving all commercial legal work: overseeing the negotiation and closing of complex SaaS agreements, strategic partnerships, reseller and OEM arrangements, and enterprise customer contracts, while building the scalable frameworks and playbooks that let the business move fast with the right guardrails.
• Provide expert counsel across corporate governance, compliance, data protection, IP, and open-source licensing, and personally lead the legal support for M&A, fundraising, and other corporate transactions alongside the finance and executive teams.
• Manage Aiven’s approach to regulatory and compliance obligations across all operating markets, oversee global external counsel relationships, and guide the team in advising on employment matters across our international footprint — all with a business-forward approach to risk.

What We’re Looking For

• A qualified lawyer with significant in-house experience at a fast-paced technology or SaaS business — you know how software companies work, how deals get done, and how to operate at pace without losing rigor.
• A genuine partnership mindset and strong commercial instincts: your colleagues see you as a business partner first and a lawyer second, and you’re known for translating complex legal matters into clear, actionable guidance and finding paths forward rather than raising barriers.
• Proven experience across multiple international jurisdictions, with a track record of supporting or leading M&A transactions, strategic partnerships, and financing rounds. Experience with open-source software licensing is a strong advantage.
• Proven experience leading and developing small, high-impact legal teams in a high-growth environment, with the executive presence to influence and challenge constructively at the highest levels of the organization.

Amazing! What’s next:

#LI-Hybrid

We’re a global team of over 400 people, working together to push the boundaries of open-source technology and multi-cloud solutions. Our vision is to help developers, builders, and creators bring their ideas to life with speed and simplicity, by providing a cloud data platform that makes open-source databases, search, streaming, and application infrastructure easily accessible to everyone. 

The Mission:

At Aiven, we are moving from being "the open-source database cloud" to the AI infrastructure provider for future developers. Trust is our product, but security is a business partnering function. Your mission is to ensure that as we innovate at high velocity in AI and agentic workflows, security is built into our product DNA, not bolted on as an afterthought.

We are moving away from an "external auditor" model toward an embedded security model. You will lead a high-talent organization that builds security champions within our product squads, ensuring that we move fast without breaking our promise to customers.

What You’ll Do:

• Embedded Security Leadership: Transition the security function from an outside observer to an internal partner. You will build the frameworks and tooling that allow developers to own the security of their code, turning your team into enablers rather than gatekeepers.
• Commercial Acceleration: Partner closely with our sales leaders to win and retain enterprise customers. You will act as the "Face of Trust," personally engaging with customer CISOs to navigate complex security assessments and accelerate the sales cycle.
• Operational Efficiency: Manage and lead our global security team (currently ~20 people). You will be responsible for defining, defending, and optimizing the service and productivity ratios that determine the efficiency of the security function.
• Business Partnering Mindset: Operate with the understanding that you are a partner to GTM and Product. You help our teams win by providing transparent, precise security data and professional humility, rather than building a siloed "fortress."
• AI & Product Innovation: Define the security guardrails for our next-gen AI services (LLMOps, agentic permissions). You ensure our internal use of AI tools—like coding assistants—is safe and accelerates our engineering output.
• Compliance & Precision: Oversee our core compliance (SOC2, ISO 27k, PCI-DSS) and incident response capabilities, ensuring we meet the highest standards of data residency and operational autonomy for our European sovereign cloud initiatives.

What We're Looking For:

• The Humble Expert: You have deep technical roots but no ego. You don't need to be the "smartest person in the room." You win trust by helping others succeed.
• A Commercial Ally: You understand that a secure product that nobody buys is a failure. You lean into customer conversations and view sales success as part of your own scorecard.
• A Bridge Builder: You know how to heal organizational friction. You move past "throwing rocks" at engineering and focus on shared outcomes.
• Data-Driven Leader: You don't ask for budget or headcount based on "gut feel." You use metrics to show how security spend correlates to risk reduction and business velocity.

Qualifications:

• Proven experience leading security in a high-growth SaaS, Cloud, or Infrastructure company.
• Track record of partnering with GTM functions to close high-ACV enterprise deals.
• Experience implementing "Security Champion" or embedded security programs.
• Experience managing distributed teams across multiple time zones (Europe, North America, APAC).
• Deep familiarity with the European regulatory landscape (GDPR, NIS2, etc.).
