Why this role is on the menu Paid search is one of the highest-contributing channels to Instacart's growth, and with significant investment across Google Ads and Microsoft Ads, the precision of day-to-day execution is what determines whether the program scales or stalls. The SEM team is small and high-performing, which means every team member carries real ownership over a complex, multi-million dollar program that directly drives new customer acquisition. This role exists to bring the operational rigor, analytical depth, and campaign management expertise needed to keep that program running with consistency, accuracy, and impact.   What you'll cook up in your first year Paid search campaigns across Google Ads and Microsoft Ads are executed with accuracy and consistency, driving reliable new customer acquisition at scale across multiple accounts simultaneously.

Large-scale campaign structures, including keyword management, bid strategies, ad copy, landing pages, and audience targeting, are continuously optimized and maintained within established testing frameworks and operational playbooks. Campaign performance is tracked, analyzed, and presented on a regular cadence, with insights surfaced proactively and campaign health issues identified and resolved before they impact results. A/B tests and marketing experiments with Data Science, Analytics, and Product teams are supported with meticulous records of campaign changes, budget pacing, and performance trends.   The secret ingredients we're looking for Must-have pantry staples (Minimum Qualifications) 3-6 years of hands-on experience managing paid search campaigns directly within Google Ads and Microsoft Ads platforms.
