- **MomentIQ - By the Data**
- $120M+/year driven on TikTok Shop - plus $130M in annual revenue generated by our shop brands
- We produce 600+ hours of LIVE selling events monthly, with 30M average U.S. impressions per LIVE and $300K average revenue per LIVE showcase
- Creator Community performance: 10K+ affiliate videos created in under 120 days, $67K+ GMV driven by a single top affiliate, and $700K+ GMV reached within five months of launch

- Create. Connect. Convert.
- **Own a Piece of What You’re Building**
- Part of the magic of MomentIQ is that everyone here owns a piece of what we’re building. Everyone owning a piece of the upside is part of what has enabled us to bring together the best team in the industry - and it’s part of what makes the MomentIQ culture so special.
- With a valuation well into the tens of millions as of our last private equity round, a MomentIQ equity package is a very special opportunity that even the leading US venture capitalists literally cannot buy their way into for any price.
- When MomentIQ wins, we all win.
- **The Role**
- **TikTok Shop Paid Media Specialist**
- This is a high-ownership role for someone who can lead GMV Max strategy, manage significant paid media budgets, and turn TikTok Shop paid media into a profitable growth engine for major brands.
- You’ll become one of the leads on managing GMV Max for some of MomentIQ’s highest-profile accounts, owning campaign execution, optimization, reporting, and strategic recommendations across accounts with monthly budgets of $250k+.
- This is not a traditional media buying role where success comes from sitting inside Ads Manager and making minor bid tweaks. TikTok Shop paid media now sits at the center of a full commerce ecosystem: product selection, ROI targets, budget pacing, affiliate content, shoppable video supply, LIVE performance, Seller Center mechanics, promotional strategy, and client expectations.
- Your job is simple to describe and hard to do:
- Make GMV Max work profitably,
- Repeatedly,
- at scale.
- This position will be a hybrid role based in Los Angeles. We’re flexible on remote, but prefer team members be LA-based so they can attend in-person events like our creator LIVE showcases. This ecosystem hits different when you can drop by the office on a Tuesday and see an MIQ creator move $250k in GMV in a single
