The opportunity
We’re looking for a Growth Marketing Engineer (Content) who can identify what’s driving results, understand why it works, and build the systems and experiments to scale it, with a deep understanding of content marketing.
We already have growth channels that generate revenue. Your job is to turn those early successes into repeatable, measurable acquisition engines across two core channels:
- Owning paid: You’ll support paid acquisition across LinkedIn, Meta, and other channels where our buyers spend time - developing campaigns, allocating budgets, and improving performance based on qualified pipeline to drive demos.
- Organic channels: You’ll own the newsletter journey. The content we publish, who discovers it, why they subscribe, and what moves them to book a demo. You’ll scale our newsletter into a full blown channel to drive more demos - and no, it’s not about writing cool content.
- Test new channels & growth motions: Spend 80% of your time scaling proven inbound channels and 20% discovering what works next. You’ll own those experiments - from identifying opportunities and launching tests to measuring results and deciding what to scale.
- Use agents and automation: Run programs leaner than the headcount suggests.
We want someone who sees an opportunity and carries it through: from idea to launch, distribution, measurement, and improvement.
The type of growth marketer we’re looking for
You start with KPIs. Reason from first principles. Measure what drives growth.
- Work backward from qualified booked demos and revenue. Understand what needs to happen at each step - from reaching the right audience to earning a click, converting interest, and creating a sales opportunity. Identify the constraint and focus your effort there.
- Connect weekly activity to outcomes. Know which content, campaigns, and distribution efforts are generating growth while running your sprints with real goals. Use that evidence to decide what deserves more time, what needs to change, and what to stop.
- Measurement obsessed: Track audience growth, spend, opens, click-through rates, conversion rate, unsubscribe rates, and booked demos. Make clear decisions about which ads to kill, iterate, or scale - and when there’s enough evidence to act.
What You’ll Bring
- 5–7 years experience in growth or performance marketing, with most of it at early-stage startups (pre-seed through Series A). Bonus if you’ve been a founder or the first marketing hire.
- Track record: A track record of helping take a company from $1M to $10M ARR, with the pipeline and revenue numbers to show for it.
- AI-native builder: you don’t just use AI tools, you build your own agents and automations to research, write, distribute and follow up. Show us something you built. Claude, GPT, Hermes, OpenClaw are you BFFs.
