Location: Remote (India preferred) | Hybrid for strategic collaboration

Experience: 2-5 years (Exceptional execution and ownership matter more than years.)

Stage: Founder's Office | Early-Stage AI Startup

We're Looking for a Growth Operator, Not Just a Marketer.

We're building AI-native software products and scaling them globally.

As we begin finding product-market fit, our biggest challenge shifts from building products to building repeatable growth.

That's why we're looking for a Founding Growth Associate—someone who combines growth marketing, sales operations, partnerships, analytics, and founder-level execution.

You'll work directly with the founders to help turn strategy into measurable business outcomes.

Think of this role as a Mini Chief Growth Officer + Revenue Operations Lead + Founder Associate.

Your Mission

Help the founders scale what works.

Your role is to identify growth opportunities, build repeatable systems, improve sales efficiency, and ensure the founders spend their time on the highest-impact activities.

You won't own just one function—you'll help connect marketing, sales, partnerships, and operations into a single growth engine.

• Use AI tools to accelerate content production while maintaining quality.

Marketing Automation

• Build and optimize marketing workflows.
• Manage email campaigns and lead nurturing.
• Automate repetitive marketing and sales tasks.
• Integrate AI into growth operations wherever possible.

Analytics & Reporting

• Track key business metrics.
• Build weekly and monthly growth dashboards.
• Measure campaign performance and ROI.
• Identify bottlenecks across the customer journey.
• Recommend improvements using data rather than assumptions.

You'll contribute to creating:

• Repeatable customer acquisition systems

• CRM and RevOps processes
• Growth dashboards

What Makes You a Great Fit

We're looking for someone who:

• Is comfortable working across multiple functions.
• Learns quickly and adapts to changing priorities.
• Is highly organized and detail-oriented.
• Communicates clearly with customers, partners, and internal teams.

• Created dashboards that guide founder decision-making.
• Automated repetitive growth and sales workflows.
• Increased marketing and sales efficiency.
• Freed founders to spend more time on customers, strategy, and product innovation.

Our Growth Principles

We believe:

• Distribution is as important as product.
• Systems outperform heroics.
• Data should drive decisions.
• Automation should eliminate repetitive work.
• Founders should spend their time where they create the most leverage.

If you're excited to work alongside founders, build scalable growth systems, combine AI with business execution, and help shape the future of an AI-native company, we'd love to meet you.

We're not hiring someone to execute campaigns—we're looking for a founding teammate who can help build the growth engine that turns a great product into a great business.
