How to Apply for Lifecycle Marketing Manager

at Lime

🏢 About Lime

Lime is the world's largest shared micromobility company, operating electric scooters and bikes in nearly 30 countries and powering over one billion rides. As a Time 100 Most Influential Company, Lime is driving a shift away from car ownership toward affordable, carbon-free urban transportation. Working here means shaping the future of sustainable mobility at a global scale.

About This Role

This Lifecycle Marketing Manager role is a rare hybrid of marketing, data science, and product thinking. You'll own Lime's entire rider retention ecosystem, from designing user states and algorithmic reward allocation to building Braze campaigns with webhooks and HTML. Your work will directly influence how millions of riders engage with Lime daily, making it a high-impact position for someone who loves both analytics and execution.

💡 A Day in the Life

You might start by reviewing overnight A/B test results in Braze, then jump into a data sync with the data science team to refine a churn prediction model. Later, you'll configure a webhook to trigger a personalized push notification based on real-time ride data, and end the day aligning with product managers on next quarter's lifecycle roadmap.

🎯 Who Lime Is Looking For

  • Deep hands-on experience with Braze (or similar CRM) including HTML email templates, webhooks, and API triggers, not just campaign scheduling.
  • Strong quantitative background: comfortable with SQL, Python/R, and statistical concepts like A/B testing, cohort analysis, and predictive modeling.
  • Proven track record of owning lifecycle marketing programs end-to-end, from strategy to execution, with measurable impact on retention and LTV.
  • Systems thinker who can map user journeys as state machines, define reward functions for ML models, and align cross-functional teams (product, data science, engineering) on lifecycle goals.

📝 Tips for Applying to Lime

1

Highlight specific Braze projects where you configured webhooks, built dynamic content, or integrated with data pipelines—show you're beyond a basic user.

2

Quantify your impact: e.g., 'Increased 30-day retention by 15% through a predictive churn model and automated win-back series.'

3

Demonstrate familiarity with Lime's product and data: mention how you'd analyze ride frequency, geolocation, or battery swap patterns to trigger lifecycle messages.

4

Show you can bridge marketing and data science: describe a time you collaborated with data scientists to define a reward function or optimize send-time algorithms.

5

Since the role is remote in Canada, emphasize your ability to work autonomously and asynchronously with global teams, ideally with examples of cross-timezone collaboration.

✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Your hands-on technical skills with Braze and data tools, with concrete examples of building complex lifecycle campaigns.', 'A specific instance where you used predictive analytics or machine learning to improve retention, including the metrics you moved.', "Your strategic understanding of lifecycle as a product feature, not just a channel—how you've mapped user states and designed interventions.", "Why Lime's mission and global scale excite you, and how you'd approach scaling lifecycle marketing across diverse markets."]

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Presenting yourself as a traditional email marketer without demonstrating technical proficiency in APIs, webhooks, or data manipulation.
  • Focusing only on campaign metrics like open rates instead of business outcomes like retention, LTV, and ride frequency.
  • Failing to show how you've collaborated with data scientists or engineers—this role requires deep cross-functional partnership.
