Founding Growth Lead

We're looking for a Founding Growth Lead who is equally hands-on in driving the market expansion and accelerating adoption across the developer ecosystem. This is a critical, cross-functional role that will own the entire growth funnel, from developer awareness and acquisition to engagement and retention. You will be the architect of a technical growth engine, integrating product, engineering, and marketing to drive sustained developer adoption, accelerate activation and retention, and translate product adoption into revenue growth.

Your impact will span defining and building the growth function from the ground up, establishing the technical infrastructure, frameworks, and repeatable processes that will scale. You will develop and execute strategies to create, engage, and grow our audience across marketing channels and all possible developer touchpoints. Partner with product and engineering leadership to influence roadmap prioritization, pricing, and packaging strategy using growth data, funnel analysis, and user insights to inform monetization decisions and conversion optimization.

You will build a thriving developer ecosystem, fostering community engagement and advocacy. Coordinate high-impact product launches that generate significant visibility, leveraging newsletters, podcasts, press, publications, and other outlets. Create viral campaigns leveraging product capabilities to reach and convert developers. Drive SEO, content strategy, and performance marketing initiatives across every channel where developers discover, evaluate, and adopt new tools. Build and maintain marketing infrastructure, tracking, dashboards, attribution tooling. Own technical content, from blog posts and landing pages to demo script and onboarding flows.

What you'll bring includes former founder or seasoned growth leader experience scaling early-stage, high-growth companies. Strong product or engineering background with technical fluency, able to design and implement technically driven growth systems. Deep analytical skills: comfortable with growth modeling, cohort analysis, A/B experimentation, funnel diagnostics, and data-driven decision-making. Track record of running product launches and campaigns that directly accelerated adoption and revenue. Hands on experience managing performance marketing budgets, paid channel strategy, and attribution across the full funnel. Thrive in ambiguity and see constant change as opportunity, not obstacle. Naturally spend nights and weekends hands-on with the latest technical innovations. Bring ideas and solutions, not org charts and territory-building. Consider marketing as a product surface that can be engineered and automated. Prior exposure to a product-led growth strategy and usage-based business model. BA/BS degree or higher, with technical degrees a plus.

Candidates must be based in the SF Bay Area or willing to relocate (you will be working on-site in our South Bay office a few days a week). The US base salary range for this full-time position is $190,000 - $270,000 + bonus + equity + benefits.
