About Hilo by Aktiia
High blood pressure is the world’s most common disease, causing 18 million deaths each year. At Hilo by Aktiia, our vision is a world where no lives are lost or damaged from the effects of high blood pressure, and our mission is to build the technology that helps people control it.
We are a venture-backed scale-up that has raised over $96M. Our technology, rooted in 18 years of research at the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology (CSEM), is the world’s only medically accurate, cuffless, continuous blood pressure monitor for daily life. It is CE Marked as a Class IIa medical device and was FDA-cleared in 2026 as the first cuffless OTC blood pressure monitor in the United States. We are remote-first, headquartered in Neuchâtel, Switzerland.
Role Overview
This is a high-impact growth role for a commercially minded performance marketing expert.
You will own Hilo's paid acquisition engine across Meta, Google, and Amazon, managing an annual budget of approximately €7.8M with significant growth expected over the coming years.
Today, we work with specialist agencies across our acquisition channels. Your role is not to execute every campaign yourself, but to own performance outcomes, challenge assumptions, improve measurement, and ensure every euro spent delivers maximum impact.
We're looking for someone who combines strong business judgment with deep channel expertise and a passion for building smarter, AI-enabled ways of working.
You should be equally comfortable discussing CAC models with Finance, creative performance with Brand, and channel strategy with agency partners.
Location: Remote within Europe
Travel: Quarterly team gatherings and occasional workshops
Core Responsibilities

- Manage and challenge agency partners to deliver best-in-class outcomes
- Make investment decisions across channels based on data and business impact
- Own CPA, CAC, and acquisition efficiency targets
