Build the Future of Search for One of the Fastest-Growing Sports Performance Brands.

About Kinetic Arm
Kinetic Arm is redefining arm performance, protection, and recovery through patented technology trusted by professional athletes, collegiate programs, sports medicine professionals, and more than 100,000 athletes worldwide.

Our products are used across baseball, softball, football, golf, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, cricket, and other overhead sports—and we’re just getting started.

Unlike traditional sports products, Kinetic Arm created an entirely new category of dynamic arm support.

That means we don’t simply compete for market share—we’re building the market.

As we continue expanding into new sports and international markets, we’re looking for an experienced Google Search Growth Strategist who can help own and scale our entire Google ecosystem.

What Makes This Role Different
This is not a traditional Google Ads position.

We’re looking for someone who understands that Kinetic Arm cannot be marketed through a conventional ecommerce or sporting goods lens.

One of the biggest challenges—and greatest opportunities—of this role is helping Google understand what Kinetic Arm is.

Our technology doesn’t fit neatly into existing product categories such as braces, compression sleeves, sporting goods, or medical devices. Success requires building Google’s understanding of our category while capturing existing demand and creating new demand across multiple sports and audiences.

You’ll help establish Kinetic Arm as the category leader by strategically building search visibility, optimizing Merchant Center, improving product feeds, expanding keyword ownership, identifying emerging opportunities, and creating scalable search strategies that continue to evolve as our business grows.

If you’re passionate about solving complex search challenges, leveraging AI, testing aggressively, and building sustainable competitive advantages, this is an opportunity to make a significant impact.

Position Overview

You’ll work closely with executive leadership, brand, creative, SEO, CRO, and content teams to ensure Google’s understanding of Kinetic Arm continues to strengthen as we expand into new sports and markets.
