We’re looking for a Growth Marketing Lead to build the revenue funnel for our new product: Ad Studio, an AI-powered creative platform for performance marketing teams. It turns performance data, market trends, competitor activity, brand guidelines, and existing creative assets into on-brand ad concepts at scale. You’ll own the full growth marketing motion: paid ads, webinars, lead generation, and content that earns attention in the market.
If you’re an expert performance marketer with an entrepreneurial spirit who wants to build a revenue engine for a breakout product at a hypergrowth startup, this role is for you.
What You’ll Do- Build and scale growth channels for Ad Studio: Launch and optimize paid campaigns across LinkedIn, Meta, Google, and emerging channels. Ideate and create lead magnets to anchor the funnel.
- Measure everything: Build reporting on funnel conversion, CPL, and pipeline. Use the data to make decisions on budget distribution and future testing plans.
- Move like a founder: Set your own roadmap, experiment often, and treat Ad Studio’s pipeline like it’s your own company’s.
- Performance marketing expertise: 5+ years running paid acquisition and demand gen at a B2B SaaS company, with a proven record of driving pipeline and revenue.
- Founder mentality: Your default is “I’ll go do it myself.” You’ve built programs from 0 → 1 and you’re energized by a blank slate.
- Builder instincts: Hands-on with AI tools and curious to learn and build
- Strong writing: You can write a blog post that takes a stance and earns attention, and ad copy that stops the scroll.
- Analytical rigor: Deep comfort with funnel metrics, attribution, and experiment design. Ability to tell a story through data.
- Hypergrowth appetite: You want the pace, ambiguity, and ownership that come with a breakout product at a fast-scaling startup.
- Experience marketing to marketers, or a background in adtech, martech, or creative tooling.
- Prior founder, founding marketer, or early-stage startup experience.
- Familiarity with CDPs, data warehouses, or the modern data stack ecosystem.
If you’re excited about building the revenue engine for an AI product that’s redefining how ads get made, we’d love to hear from you.
The salary range for this position is $140,000 - $180,000 USD per year, which is location-independent in accordance with our remote-first policy. We also offer meaningful equity compensation in the form of ISO options and offer early exercise and a 10-year post-termination exercise window.
