• Identifying customer drop-offs across discovery, selection, checkout and ordering journeys
• Working closely with UI/UX and Design teams to improve customer-facing experiences
• Coordinating with Performance Marketing and Growth teams on CAC, ROAS, conversion quality, cohorts and funnel performance
• Translating campaign and customer data into product/category improvements
• Working with Technology teams from problem identification to launch and post-launch measurement
• A/B testing across pricing, offers, product journeys, communication and category placement
• City, category, SKU and customer-segment level performance analysis
• Identifying underperforming categories/products and driving corrective action
• Presenting performance, insights and action plans to senior leadership
