CAREERS AT LAB 916

Work Where Amazon Is Treated Like a Real Business

Lab 916 is an Amazon and ecommerce growth firm for established brands. We hire people who want to own real revenue, not just manage tasks. If you want clear standards, direct feedback, and serious problems to solve, keep reading.

Who This Is For (And Who It's Not For)

Bottom line: We are friendly. We are not soft.

You'll Struggle Here If…

You want to "try marketing" but don't care about ecommerce or Amazon.

You need constant hand-holding to move anything forward.

You're allergic to numbers and details.

You want a chill 4–hour workday with agency pizza parties.

You blame "the algorithm" every time something doesn't work.

You'll Fit Here If…

You want to own outcomes, not just follow instructions.

You care about P&L, not just "campaign metrics" or "pretty creative."

You're okay hearing blunt feedback and giving it.

You like figuring things out in messy real-world accounts, not just learning from courses.

You can manage your own time and deliver without someone chasing you.

What Working Here Actually Looks Like

The Roles We Build the Firm Around

We're not hiring "general marketers." We hire into specific roles that support our Amazon and ecommerce clients.

Brand Manager / Account Manager

Owns client relationships and overall channel performance

Coordinates ads, creative, and technical work across the pod

Ideal for people who can think like an operator, not "project coordinator"

Amazon Advertising Specialist

Builds and optimizes Sponsored ads, DSP, and off-Amazon traffic when needed

Lives in the data, understands margin, and kills waste fast

Creative Lead / Designer (Amazon-First)

Designs listing images, A+ content, Brand Story, storefronts, and ad creatives

Understands that "conversion" comes before "portfolio beauty"

Technical Specialist (Seller/Vendor Central)

Handles catalog issues, suppressions, flat files, compliance, reinstatement

Likes solving weird problems inside Amazon's systems without melting down

Operations & Reporting Support

Supports FBA inventory, forecasting, and finance-grade reporting

Makes sure dashboards match reality

Even if your exact title isn't listed, if you're strong in one of these lanes, we want to hear from you.

How We Work Internally

Communication

Slack for daily communication

Weekly or bi-weekly team and pod calls

Written updates for anything that impacts clients or deadlines

Ownership & Expectations

Each account and project has a clear owner

You're expected to raise issues early, not hide them

Hitting deadlines is the default, not a bonus

Tools & Systems

ClickUp (or similar) for tasks and projects

Shared SOPs and playbooks so you're not guessing

Standard reporting templates so you're not rebuilding dashboards every week

How You Grow Here

We don't do vague "career path" posters. Growth here means you handle bigger accounts, more complex situations, and more trust.

Regular feedback—good and bad—in plain language

Exposure to real strategy calls and high-stakes decisions, not just internal busywork

Access to internal training on Amazon, ads, creative, and operations

Clear expectations for what "senior" actually means in your role

If you want to coast, this is not the place. If you want to level up fast by doing real work, it makes sense.

Culture, Without the Buzzwords

We are not passive-aggressive.

We are not yes-people when something is dumb.

We are not obsessed with looking busy.

We are not flexible on accountability.

We are direct.

We are client-focused.

We are serious about our craft.

We are flexible on where you work.

What the Hiring Process Looks Like

Questions People Usually Ask

Yes. We're remote-first. Some roles prefer overlap with U.S. time zones; others are more flexible.
Yes. We already have team members outside the U.S. Compensation and engagement structure depend on location and role.
For most core roles (Brand Manager, Ads Specialist, Technical), yes. For some creative or ops roles, strong ecommerce experience is a starting point if you're willing to learn Amazon fast.
If you're in client-facing roles (Brand Manager, certain specialists), yes. If that scares you, those roles are not a fit.
This is not an entry-level training program. We expect you to bring something to the table already. We'll help you get sharper, not teach you from zero.
