The gap

what you would need to build

The quantitative core: funnels, A/B testing, analytics, lifecycle and paid channels, and a genuine comfort with metrics and experimentation.

How to get there

  1. Learn the fundamentals (analytics, experimentation, paid and lifecycle) through a course and a real project.
  2. Run a growth experiment end to end on something you control and report the result.
  3. Get fluent in the tools: GA4, an email and lifecycle platform, basic SQL.

Your first move
