Razorpay is one of India’s leading full-stack financial technology companies, powering the way businesses move, manage, and grow money. Founded in 2014 by Harshil Mathur and Shashank Kumar with a simple vision - to simplify payments for Indian businesses - we’ve since grown into a fintech powerhouse driving India’s digital payment revolution.

Razorpay powers millions of businesses with a smarter, scalable stack that goes beyond transactions to help them truly build and grow.

From building AI-native agentic payments, to AI-assisted fraud detection and real-time risk intelligence to automated reconciliation, smart payouts, and predictive financial insights, we are embedding intelligence across our stack to make money movement faster, safer, and more efficient. In close collaboration with ecosystem partners - including banks, networks, regulators - we are pioneering industry-first solutions that are shaping the next era of fintech

Across India, Singapore and Malaysia, our products span everything from seamless checkouts to payroll automation - powering a fintech ecosystem that’s redefining how money moves across Asia.

Today, that ecosystem supports everyone from early-stage startups to some of India’s largest enterprises, enabling them to accept, process, and disburse payments at scale while expanding into new ways of managing money more efficiently.

Our scale speaks volumes: Razorpay processes $180+ billion in annualized transactions, powering leading businesses like Airbnb, Facebook, WhatsApp, Airtel, CRED, BookmyShow, Zomato, Swiggy, Lenskart, Mirae Asset Capital markets, Indian Oil, National Pension Scheme - and over 100 of India’s unicorns. With strong roots in India and growing operations in Southeast Asia, we are shaping the next chapter of financial technology across the region.

We are backed by global investors including GIC, Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia Capital India & SEA), Tiger Global, Ribbit Capital, Matrix Partners, MasterCard, and Salesforce Ventures, having raised over $740 million to date. Strategic acquisitions - including Ezetap (POS and offline payments), Curlec (Malaysia expansion), BillMe (digital invoicing), and POP (rewards-first UPI) - along with earlier moves in fraud prevention, payroll, and lending, have further strengthened our platform and widened our footprint across Asia.

But what truly sets Razorpay apart is our culture. At Razorpay, ownership is our oxygen - you own what you build, with no micromanagement or red tape, just the runway to make your ideas fly. Learning is a lifestyle - if you’re curious, you’ll feel at home here. People > Pedigree - we hire for attitude, hustle, and hunger more than degrees.

The Role

The Associate Manager – Performance Marketing will own paid digital acquisition for Razorpay’s Payment Gateway business while building the automation layer for our paid media operations. On the performance front, this role focuses on driving merchant signups, activations, and revenue across core channels (Google, Meta, LinkedIn) and scaling experiments (DV360, Reddit, X). On the automation front, this role will design and deploy workflows that automate campaign setup, creative generation, and reporting, turning manual work into calable systems.

This is not a reporting-and-presenting role. The ideal candidate combines deep performance marketing fundamentals with a builder’s mindset — someone who can independently run complex, high-budget campaigns, build the measurement stack, and set up automated pipelines using AI tools, APIs, and scripts. You will build Razorpay’s performance playbook from the ground up, define full-funnel strategies, and collaborate closely with Brand, Product, Growth, and Sales to ensure our acquisition engine is both profitable and efficient.

Roles and Responsibilities

Campaign Strategy & Execution

• Plan and run full-funnel paid campaigns across Google (Search, PMax, YouTube, Demand Gen), Meta, and LinkedIn, with clear KPIs from awareness to conversion.
• Scale high-growth experimental channels including DV360, Reddit, and Twitter/X, managing budget pacing, placements, and bid strategies daily.
• Own monthly and quarterly performance forecasts, building scenario plans across different budget levels against business targets.
• Run ABM campaigns for enterprise and mid-market segments, partnering with Sales to build target account lists, set up LinkedIn ABM audiences, and track pipeline influence.
• Research competition regularly, using tools like SimilarWeb, SpyFu, and Meta Ad Library to benchmark competitor messaging, spends, and landing page strategies.

AI-Powered Automation & Campaign Workflows

• Build automated workflows using Make.com, n8n, Zapier, or custom scripts (Claude API, OpenAI API) to handle repetitive tasks like report pulls, keyword expansion, and brief generation.
• Set up automated monitoring systems for anomaly detection, pacing issues, and creative fatigue, so campaign problems are caught early.
• Test and evaluate platform AI features (Meta Advantage+, Google AI Max, LinkedIn Predictive Audiences) with a proper test-and-learn structure before scaling budgets.
• Track shifts in search and discovery behaviour driven by LLMs (AI Overviews, conversational queries) and factor this into acquisition planning.
• Continuously identify automation opportunities across the performance function, aiming to significantly reduce manual campaign operations.

Analytics, Measurement & Attribution

• Own GA4 health for paid acquisition, ensuring flawless setup of conversion events, channel groupings, funnel configurations, and attribution models.
• Manage the full tracking and measurement stack, taking hands-on responsibility for GTM, UTM taxonomy, pixel QA, and AppsFlyer configurations.
• Build unified performance dashboards in Tableau or Looker Studio that connect channel metrics, creative performance, and conversion funnels.
• Run attribution comparisons across platform-reported data, GA4 data-driven models, and our internal backend to inform budget decisions.

Creative Strategy & Performance Testing

• Define what good performance creative looks like across channels, identifying winning hooks, formats, and CTAs for B2B audiences.
• Build AI-driven creative testing loops, using LLMs to generate copy variants, structure A/B tests, and feed results back into the next round of production.
• Track creative fatigue proactively and manage refresh cycles by briefing design teams with hard data on what is working and what has stopped.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work with Product Marketing to build campaigns around new feature launches and product updates.
• Partner with the Brand team to ensure paid creatives are optimised for performance while staying on-brand.
• Coordinate with the Growth team on retargeting and lifecycle-triggered paid campaigns to amplify owned-channel efforts.

Must Have

• 3+ years in performance or digital marketing with direct, hands-on accountability for high-budget acquisition campaigns.
• Deep operational expertise in ad platforms, specifically Google Ads (Search, PMax, YouTube), Meta Ads, and LinkedIn Campaign Manager; able to independently build complex structures.
• Practical, demonstrated use of AI tools and automation (LLMs, Zapier, Make.com, or custom platform scripts) for marketing use cases. Not just theoretical.
• Hands-on experience with GA4 and GTM, including conversion setup, event schema design, trigger logic, and tag QA — going beyond just reading dashboards.
• Proven ability to build automated reporting systems using Tableau, Looker Studio, or equivalent tools.
• Strong grasp of modern ad tech, including pixels, server-side tracking, MMPs (AppsFlyer preferred), and cookie deprecation.
• Understanding of B2B marketing funnels and how paid channels drive different behaviours from discovery to technical integration.

Good to Have

• Background in B2B SaaS, fintech, or payments, comfortable navigating longer sales cycles and multiple buyer personas.
• Experience with DV360 for programmatic buying, deal management, and audience strategies.
• Familiarity with Python or SQL for data pulls, custom automation scripts, and funnel analysis.
• Understanding of AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) and how paid search must adapt alongside AI search behaviour.
• Experience running large-scale campaigns on Reddit and Twitter/X.
