Power Digital is an AI-Native Growth Firm built at the intersection of world-class talent and proprietary technology. We help leading and emerging brands grow by combining deep vertical expertise, strategic thinking, and enterprise intelligence to drive measurable business outcomes. For more than a decade, we have built our business around one belief: the best technology makes great people better. Our teams of strategists, creatives, analysts, and technologists use Omega, our AI operating system, to surface opportunities faster, investigate what is driving performance, and execute approved work with greater speed and precision. Behind Omega is Iris, our proprietary intelligence layer, built on years of real performance data, strategic frameworks, testing, and learnings from across our client portfolio. AI expands the capacity of our people to think, create, solve harder problems, and make better decisions. Human judgment, creativity, and accountability remain central to how we work. As a people-first firm, we value diversity in backgrounds and experiences. We strongly believe our people and culture are key to our success. We partner closely with our clients as an extension of their teams, working across strategy, execution, and measurement to identify what is truly blocking growth and determine what to do next. Our culture is built on people who are curious, ambitious, accountable, and committed to delivering meaningful results for our clients and for one another. At Power Digital, we believe the future belongs to teams that combine the best talent with the best technology. We are building that future today. We support 100% remote, in-office, or hybrid work styles for anyone legally eligible to work in the U.S.
A Day In The Life
You'll own a portfolio of 8–12 Core accounts — early-stage and growth-stage brands that are figuring it out in real time. Some launched via crowdfunding. Some are founder-led with no dedicated marketing team. Some are scaling fast, and the infrastructure hasn't caught up. None of them has a budget to waste. These clients need a different kind of AD. The Power Circuit work is the same, but what you find is usually more fundamental: weak product-market fit signals, an undefined audience, no measurement baseline, and a media mix built on gut instinct. Prioritization matters more here because you can't fix everything at once, and trying to will burn both the client and the team. You also need to be comfortable being the most experienced person in the room. The client may not know what good looks like yet. Showing them clearly, without condescension, is a meaningful part of the job.
Responsibilities
- Employ AI technologies to enhance and optimize business processes
- Utilize and leverage Power Digital's Nova ecosystem as it relates to your department
- Run quarterly Power Circuit reviews — diagnose growth constraints across Business, Audience, Product, Messaging, Channels, and Measurement; build a prioritized roadmap that accounts for what the client can actually execute with their current resources
- Own the senior client relationship, which often means the founder directly; QBRs should feel like a board-ready business update, not a marketing recap
- Help clients build measurement infrastructure from scratch when it doesn't exist, establish baselines before optimizing against them
- Coordinate paid, SEO, content, email, and creative work around a focused account strategy; scope management is part of the job
- Identify expansion opportunities that fit the client's stage, don't oversell services a brand isn't ready for
- Manage retention and expansion; lead renewals; grow MRR
- Build multi-threaded relationships with multiple layers of client contacts so no single point of contact departure puts an account at risk
- Ensure daily use of our proprietary technology (Iris and nova), Pulse (client performance and sentiment tool) cadence at 100%, and Power Circuit (our proprietary diagnostic system) compliance across managed ADs
- Manage and develop 1–2 direct reports — run regular 1:1s, build development plans, and own their performance reviews
- Coach analysts and specialists; many will be working with startups for the first time
Role Requirements
- 6+ years in marketing, with meaningful experience working with early-stage or scaling consumer brands
- Has worked with founder-led businesses and understands the dynamic — decisions move fast, emotions run high, strategy and execution blur together
- Comfortable building from scratch: no brand guidelines, no historical data, no benchmark — and still making good decisions
- Understands crowdfunding-to-DTC transitions and what changes when a brand moves from Kickstarter momentum to sustainable acquisition
- Strong prioritization instincts — knows which problems to solve first and which to defer
- Comfortable with scrappy media mixes and knows how to get signal out of small budgets
- Track record of retaining and growing accounts, including accounts that went through rough patches
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
- Expansion to Churn Ratio (ETCR)
- Net MRR across portfolio
- Client NPS (8+ avg)
- Monthly Service Expansion pipeline generation
- Power Circuit Certification (annual)
Most Important Things (MITs)

Get Access To All JobsAccount Director CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does an Account Director role qualify for CPT authorization?
It depends on your degree program and how the job is structured. CPT is valid when the Account Director role directly integrates with your curriculum, for example, if your program includes agency practicum, client project requirements, or applied marketing coursework. Your DSO makes the final determination, and the job description must demonstrate that connection to your field of study.
Can I work as an Account Director on CPT before I complete my degree?
Yes, CPT is available before graduation, but you must have completed one academic year in F-1 status first. The authorization is semester-specific and must be renewed each term if the role continues. If you use 12 months or more of full-time CPT, you become ineligible for OPT, so tracking your cumulative CPT usage is critical for Account Director roles that may extend across multiple semesters.
What documents do I need to show an employer when accepting an Account Director offer on CPT?
You'll present your current I-20 with the CPT authorization endorsed on page two, your F-1 visa stamp, and your passport. The I-20 must list the employer name, work location, and authorized dates that match your offer letter exactly. Some employers also request your SEVIS record number for their E-Verify process. Get all documents aligned with your DSO before your start date.
How do I find Account Director positions where employers are familiar with F-1 CPT?
Search on Migrate Mate, which filters Account Director listings for employers with documented sponsorship and work-authorization experience. Employers who've filed Labor Condition Applications or sponsored H-1B visa holders in the past are far more likely to understand CPT paperwork and move through onboarding without delays caused by compliance uncertainty.
Does CPT work as an Account Director count toward H-1B specialty occupation evidence?
CPT employment in a qualifying specialty occupation can support your H-1B petition as evidence of work experience in the field. Account Director roles typically map to SOC codes in management or marketing occupations, which USCIS evaluates against specialty occupation criteria. Keep your offer letters, pay stubs, and performance documentation from your CPT period to strengthen any future H-1B filing.
