Headline: You Ride Horses. You Build with AI. You're a Growth Marketer. We've Been Looking for You.

We posted this role before. 30+ applied. ONE had the AI chops. Zero had the equestrian background.

The Role: Growth Manager at Schneiders Saddlery 75-year equestrian brand. $12B market. Full-stack growth ownership. $132K-182K total comp.

You MUST Be An equestrian -- active rider, former rider, horse owner, or deep enthusiast. Someone who knows why a 200g blanket matters in November but not in January. Someone who understands our community because you ARE our community.

AND

An AI builder -- not someone who "uses ChatGPT." Someone who has BUILT automations, apps, agents, or AI-powered tools. Vibe coding is your daily practice. You've deployed systems, not just typed prompts.

AND

A growth marketer -- 5-7 years DTC e-commerce. Paid channels. Shopify. CRO. Analytics. The full stack.

Paid acquisition (Google, Meta, TikTok, influencer)
Shopify optimization (UX, CRO, A/B testing)
SEO strategy and Amazon execution
Analytics and attribution (GA4, SQL)
AI systems you build yourself

What You Get:

$132K-182K total comp ($110K-140K base + 20-30% bonus)
Six-figure+ ad budget, full decision authority
A role where your horse life is an ASSET
AI-first environment (build anything, budget for tools)
Clear path: Manager -> Director -> VP
Family-owned = fast decisions, no bureaucracy, real autonomy

Our Values (Non-Negotiable):

We Own the Outcome (no excuses, fix it first)
We Keep Growing (learners first, always)
We're Built to Last (systems, not workarounds)
We're In It With You (horse people helping horse people)

Not For You If:

You don't know horses (sorry, this one's required now)
Your AI experience = "I prompt ChatGPT sometimes" (builders only)
You want narrow scope or hand-holding
You think short-term (we think in generations)
