About Manifest

Manifest O.S. is an AI-native company on a mission to replace the billable hour and make legal services more accessible for American businesses and consumers. We power the next generation of AI-native law firms with one unified global brand, a proprietary technology platform, and a centralized back office — enabling lawyers to eliminate the administrative burden and focus on delivering exceptional outcomes for their clients. Backed by leading venture investors, Manifest O.S. is scaling rapidly.

About The Team

Our marketing team is a data-driven powerhouse of about 15 people who believe that great marketing starts with understanding exactly who you're talking to and why they should care. We're heavy on analytics, experimentation, and cross-functional collaboration with sales, product, and customer success. The team values technical depth alongside creative strategy, and we're not afraid to get our hands dirty in the data to find insights that drive real business impact.

What We're Looking For

- 3–6 years of experience in a role where analytical thinking and technical execution were the primary job — this could be performance marketing, growth analytics, marketing engineering, data science applied to growth, or quantitative finance that crossed into marketing - Has owned a paid program end-to-end — built the tracking, set up the campaigns, analyzed the results, and made the optimization calls — even if the program was small or early-stage - Demonstrably fast learner on technical tools — can point to a platform, system, or skill they didn't know and ramped on quickly; platform fluency is less important than the ability to develop it - Proficient with SQL and comfortable in analytics tools — pulls their own data, builds their own models, doesn't wait for a data team to tell them what's happening - Has a structured approach to testing — knows how to design an experiment, define success criteria upfront, and avoid drawing conclusions from underpowered tests - Consumer-facing background preferred; comfort with high-consideration, trust-intensive categories (legal, financial, healthcare) is a plus

What You'll Do

Manifest Law is acquiring tens of thousands of immigration clients through a multi-channel B2C growth engine — and paid is our biggest untapped lever. We've validated that paid social works for our business. What we don't have yet is the technical depth to run it with precision: the audience architecture, the attribution infrastructure, the testing rigor, and the analytical sophistication to turn a working channel into a scalable, predictable acquisition machine. That's what this role is. You will build our paid program from zero — not by managing a media buy, but by engineering an audience and testing system that identifies the highest-value immigration prospects across our core demographic markets (Chinese, Brazilian, Colombian, Russian) and delivers the right message to the right person at the right cost. This is a technical builder role, not a campaign manager role. You'll Own: - Build and own the full paid acquisition program across Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and Google — from audience architecture to creative testing to budget allocation - Engineer our audience strategy from the ground up: first-party data segmentation, lookalike modeling, behavioral targeting, and demographic audience builds for our core immigrant communities - Design and run a rigorous testing program — creative tests, audience tests, landing page tests, bid strategy tests — with clear hypotheses, proper holdouts, and valid conclusions - Own the attribution layer: set up and maintain accurate conversion tracking, build multi-touch attribution models, and be the single source of truth on paid channel performance - Analyze campaign performance at the cohort level — CAC by audience segment, LTV by acquisition cohort, CPL by creative variant — and translate findings into actionable optimizations - Partner with the GTM Engineer to build the data infrastructure that connects paid campaigns to CRM outcomes (not just platform-reported metrics) - Evaluate and manage our paid tech stack: bid management tools, creative analytics platforms, audience enrichment tools, and landing page optimization software The Technical Bar This role requires genuine technical depth in paid channels. We are not looking for someone who manages campaigns inside platform UIs. We are looking for someone who: - Builds custom audience lists from first-party data, third-party enrichment, and behavioral signals — not just platform-native tools - Understands the mechanics of Meta's auction, knows how to structure campaigns to avoid audience overlap, and can diagnose delivery issues at the ad set level - Can write SQL to pull their own cohort data without waiting on a data analyst - Has built or contributed to a multi-touch attribution model — understands the difference between last-click, data-driven, and incrementality-based attribution and when each is appropriate - Thinks in statistical terms: knows what sample size a test needs, what confidence interval is acceptable, and how to avoid false positives in high-volume testing

This For You If

You are more analytically wired than the average marketer and more marketing-curious than the average analyst. You pick up new platforms and tools fast because you understand the underlying mechanics — not because you've memorized a specific UI. You've built things from scratch that didn't exist before you, and you get more satisfaction from a clean attribution model than from a pretty campaign dashboard. You're energized by the fact that there's no playbook here — you'll write it.

Not For You If

If your strength is creative strategy, brand, or campaign management without the analytical depth to back it up, this role will be a mismatch. If you rely on data teams to pull numbers or agencies to run technical setup, this will frustrate you. And if you need deep platform tenure to feel confident, the ambiguity of building across multiple channels simultaneously will feel uncomfortable rather than exciting.
