The Role

We're hiring a Senior Monetization Manager to optimize monetization and revenue yield across our growing portfolio of mobile apps, with a primary focus on subscription and paywall monetization across iOS and Android, backed by strong programmatic ad monetization experience. This is a highly strategic and analytical role, working cross-functionally with product, data and analytics, growth, and engineering to ensure Mode is maximizing subscription and ad revenue, LTV, and retention across our app portfolio.

The Senior Monetization Manager will own and grow our subscription monetization strategy — managing pricing and packaging, paywall experimentation, subscriber lifecycle and retention/win-back programs, and vendor relationships (RevenueCat, Superwall) — while also applying hands-on programmatic ad monetization experience, particularly with AdMob, to help balance subscription and ad revenue streams across our portfolio.

This is a high-impact, high-autonomy, fully remote role with significant visibility and upside, ideal for someone with strong subscription-monetization experience, a programmatic ad background, an AI-native way of working, and a bias for driving measurable results.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and own Mode's subscription monetization and pricing strategy across the app portfolio, including price testing, packaging, and paywall optimization on both iOS and Android

• Design, launch, and iterate on paywall experiments (offer structures, trial lengths, price points, targeting) to maximize conversion, ARPU, and LTV

• Manage subscriber lifecycle programs — including churn reduction, win-back, and retention offers — using cohort and funnel analysis to identify and close leakage points

• Own day-to-day management of subscription tooling and vendor relationships (e.g., RevenueCat, Superwall), including configuration and QA

• Own and optimize programmatic ad monetization performance across the portfolio, with a particular focus on AdMob configuration, mediation, and yield management, alongside other demand sources like AppLovin MAX

• Monitor, analyze, and optimize the balance between subscription revenue and ad monetization across the portfolio, using programmatic/ad ops expertise to inform trade-off decisions

• Leverage AI tools to accelerate analysis, reporting, and experimentation, embedding them into monetization workflows to scale your impact across the portfolio

• Partner with product, engineering, and data teams to identify and prioritize opportunities for pricing changes, paywall improvements, and subscription infrastructure enhancements

• Serve as the internal expert on subscription monetization mechanics, best practices, and trends across the mobile app ecosystem, while maintaining strong fluency in programmatic ad monetization when needed

Who You Are

• A highly organized individual who can run multiple monetization workstreams in parallel without letting details slip

• Data-driven and rigorous, you back decisions with clear reasoning and are comfortable both challenging assumptions and being challenged

• High-ownership and self-directed — you take a problem and run with it, and can be trusted to drive workstreams independently

• Comfortable with ambiguity and shifting priorities, you create structure and momentum where there isn't any

• Skilled at using data, A/B experimentation, and intuition to make the best possible decisions

What You Bring to the Team

• 4+ years of experience in subscription monetization, pricing strategy, or growth roles at a mobile app or subscription-based company

• Hands-on exper
