Role Overview

This is a hands-on growth role for someone who can both build the technical mechanics of growth and explain them clearly to the people who make decisions. You'll design and ship real growth loops yourself, not just recommend them, while also owning the budget, business case, and roadmap behind them. You'll be equally comfortable in the weeds of an experiment and in the room with a senior executive, brand partner, or client, translating a complex test, a cohort analysis, or a monetization result into a clear, compelling recommendation and securing buy-in to act on it. Strong technical execution matters, and so does your ability to build trust and alignment with non-technical, senior stakeholders.

Roles and Responsibilities

• Design, build, and ship technical growth mechanisms: acquisition funnels, onboarding flows, referral/viral loops, activation triggers, and monetization experiments.
• Own and optimize acquisition budgets and channels, and define tracking specs and analytics events (attribution, pixels, A/B testing, cohort analysis) in partnership with engineering to measure what's working and iterate fast.
• Rapidly prototype and test growth hypotheses across new AI products.
• Build the business case for new growth bets, including market sizing, expansion opportunities, and go-to-market strategy, and present it clearly to senior executives and stakeholders.
• Translate growth experiments, data, and mechanics into clear, jargon-free narratives for senior executives and clients, turning technical results into recommendations they act on, and securing buy-in to move initiatives forward.
