About CT Nova

CT Nova is an enterprise learning platform that runs inside our customers’ own cloud. Rather than asking organisations to hand their learner data to someone else’s SaaS, we deploy the entire platform as an Azure Managed Application into the customer’s own Azure tenant — data never leaves their environment, and billing runs through the Azure Marketplace on metered usage.

The product grew out of migrations off Microsoft’s Community Training platform, so our DNA is large-scale, often public-interest training: government skilling programmes, NGO field workforces, enterprise frontline teams. We work with organisations across several regions, some running training at a scale of hundreds of thousands of learners.

The role

·     Title: Founder’s Office — Growth

·     Reports to: The founders, directly

·     Location: Bengaluru preferred; remote considered for the right person. Periodic travel for client meetings.

·     Compensation: Competitive fixed salary, performance-linked variable, and ESOPs.

You will be our first dedicated growth hire, and that word — first — is most of the job. There is no playbook to inherit, no readymade pipeline handed over, and no team beneath you yet.

Almost every customer we have today reached us through Founder network & relationship rather than through a sales motion. That base is real, sticky and expandable. It is also exactly why the next phase has to look different. Your job is to build a new muscle : a repeatable way of finding, winning and growing accounts on our own terms.

This is a Founder’s Office role in the real sense. You will spend time in customer conversations, time in spreadsheets, and time in the room where decisions actually get made. The founders are in these conversations alongside you — this is neither a role where you are sent out alone with a bag and a number, nor one where you produce strategy at a safe distance from the customer.

What you’ll own

·     Customer conversations: Run a standing rhythm of structured conversations across our existing base — not support check-ins, but real discovery into what each organisation is trying to achieve, where the platform gets in their way, and what would justify them expanding.

·     Growth opportunities: Turn those conversations into a ranked, evidence-backed view of where the next tranche of revenue comes from — which accounts can grow, what unlocks each one, which segments deserve concentration, and what we should decline.

·     Expansion and retention: Own the commercial side of the existing base — expansion, renewals, pricing conversations, and account plans that make growth deliberate rather than reactive.

·     The GTM pipeline: Work with marketing to stand up an acquisition engine from close to zero — a defined ICP, positioning and messaging that survives contact with a buyer, an outbound motion, and enough tracking to tell whether any of it is working.

·     Partner motion: Make the Microsoft relationship a deliberate channel rather than an accident of history — Marketplace listing, co-sell readiness, and working relationships with regional systems integrators.

·     Product feedback loop: Sit between customers and engineering. A meaningful share of our expansion revenue is gated by product work — reliability at scale, onboarding, SSO, reporting — so translating commercial urgency into a credible roadmap argument is part of the role, not a side effect of it.

What the first year looks like

·     First 90 days: You have spoken to every meaningful customer and formed your own view of the base. You have written a growth thesis with a ranked opportunity list, and agreed with the founders on where to concentrate.

·     By six months: A working pipeline with self-sourced opportunities in it. Expansion plans live on the top accounts. Positioning and collateral a newcomer could sell from.

·     By twelve months: Revenue growth you can attribute to specific decisions, measurably less dependence on any single account or channel, and a motion documented well enough that the next two hires can run it.

What we’re looking for

Must-haves

·     Commercial ownership: 3–6 years in a role where you carried commercial responsibility for B2B outcomes — GTM at a SaaS or PaaS company, consulting, or an early-stage operating role. Titles matter less to us than evidence that you have owned something end to end.

·     Customer presence: Comfort in front of customers, including technical buyers, and the ability to hold your own on cloud deployment, data residency and total cost of ownership. You do not need to be an engineer; you do need to be unafraid of technical detail.

·     Structured thinking and clear writing: Much of this job is turning messy conversations into a position other people can act on. We will ask to see a written sample.

·     Comfort with low support: There is no CRM hygiene team, no SDR, and no marketing department waiting on your brief. What exists is what you build.

Good to have

·     Exposure to Microsoft’s co-sell ecosystem, Azure Marketplace transactions, or partner-led motions.

·     Experience selling into government, development-sector or education buyers, where cycles are long and procurement is a discipline of its own.

·     Familiarity with LMS/LXP or workforce-development products.

·     Time spent at a company under 30 people.

Who this role isn’t for

We would rather be direct now than waste your time later.

·     If you want a defined territory, an inherited pipeline and a quota to work against, this will frustrate you.

·     If you want a purely strategic seat — market maps and decks, no customer calls — this is not that either.

·     Our base is small and concentrated, the product still has scaling work ahead of it, and some of what you propose will be constrained by engineering capacity. Working inside that tension is the job, not an obstacle to it.

How to apply

Our process: an intro call with a founder, then a written exercise based on a real CT Nova growth problem and a discussion of your response, then a conversation with the founding team, then references. We aim to close within three weeks.

Help new products find their first customers in the US, and teach our systems how you do it.

Daemon Ventures is a US technology company that builds and runs internet businesses with a very small team and heavy use of AI. We are looking for a growth lead who has personally taken products from zero to their first paying customers in the US market.

What you'll do

- Review how each new business goes to market: the plan, the actual ads, landing pages, emails and sign-up flow, and the numbers that come back. Say clearly what to change, and why.

- Diagnose. When a number is bad, work out whether the problem is the audience, the offer, the page or the channel, and what to try next.

- Turn what works into repeatable playbooks, so every future launch starts from what the last one learned.

- Bring in specialists (search, outbound, paid social, communities, marketplaces) when a problem needs deep craft, and judge their work.

Who you are

- Senior and hands-on. 6–10 years in growth or marketing, at least 3 of them personally acquiring US customers for a software product, an app or an online business. You ran the channels yourself, not only through agencies or a team.

- Taken a product from near zero to real US traction, with numbers you can show.

- A diagnostician. You can read a funnel and find the leak, and you think in experiments. You read results honestly, including when the answer is "this channel doesn't work for this product."

- A clear writer. You explain your reasoning so that others can act on it.

- Energized by working alongside AI. Most execution here is automated; your judgment is what makes it better.

Details

- Full-time and remote within India, engaged as an independent contractor.

- ₹45–55 LPA based on experience, plus equity.

- Process:

1. A short application with a 20-minute exercise.

2. A conversation.

3. A paid one-to-two-week project on a real business.

Product Marketing Manager — ADDA

Location: Bengaluru / Remote-friendly, must be living in Apartment Complex

Read this First: Is this role right for you?

This role is about marketing to our existing customers, not winning new ones.

As our Product Marketer, you'll help customers:

1. See the value. Understand which of their everyday problems each ADDA feature solves.
2. Use it well. Know exactly how to adopt and get the most out of those features.

Your north-star metric is customer retention. You succeed when customers use more of ADDA, get more value from it, and stay with us.

This role is not about acquisition. If most of your experience is in performance marketing, growth marketing, SEO, paid campaigns, or converting prospects into paying users, this role won't be the right fit. We'd rather tell you that now than waste your time.

Responsibilities

1. Product marketing inside and outside the product. Inside, that means in-product nudges, pop-ups, tooltips, walkthrough videos, and notifications. Outside, it means social posts, blogs, website pages, emails, and WhatsApp communication. Both are yours, end to end.
2. Launching new releases. Tell customers what's new and persuade them to start using it.
3. Driving ongoing adoption. Run continuous programs such as Feature of the Month, customer success stories, feature highlights, and social content, so features get discovered, adopted, and used regularly.
4. Keeping every asset current. Update the website, decks, USP docs, pricing, screenshots, and case studies as the product evolves.
5. Shaping features from the start. Work with Product Managers at the PRD/FS stage to agree on the pain points, benefits, product marketing plan, and discoverability of each feature.

What we're looking for

• 4–6 years in product marketing at a B2B SaaS product company
• Evidence of owning a launch end to end: positioning through to adoption, not just producing the assets someone else specified
• Strong creative skill across formats — blogs, product pages, emails, in-product copy, setup guides, social posts and other shareables, videos
• Comfort with numbers: you can pull product usage data, read a funnel, and say honestly whether something worked
• The discipline to run a content calendar.
• Hands-on experience on visuals and short videos (Canva, editing, or strong AI-tool leverage)

Why ADDA?

• ADDA is a Make in India, profitable and 17 years old globally trusted SaaS product — 25,000+ communities, 7.5M+ residents, 10+ countries.
• You sit between Product and Marketing with real ownership and a direct line to leadership
• Remote-friendly. Competitive salary

Comfortable working with data and making decisions based on results

Strong execution mindset and ability to work independently

Someone who builds, tests, learns, and moves fast

A BIT ABOUT US

Appknox is a leading AI-native mobile application security platform trusted by enterprises around the world. Recognized by Gartner and G2, Appknox helps organizations secure mobile applications throughout their lifecycle through automated security testing, continuous monitoring, and actionable intelligence.

Headquartered in Singapore with engineering based in Bengaluru, Appknox serves customers across North America, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Japan, and India. Our customers include Fortune 500 companies, governments, financial institutions, and digital-first enterprises that rely on Appknox to secure their mobile ecosystem.

We are a profitable, fast-growing B2B SaaS company with a highly collaborative culture and ambitious plans to shape the future of application security in the AI era.

About The Role

Application security is undergoing a fundamental shift. AI is changing how software gets built, how vulnerabilities emerge, how security teams investigate and prioritise risk, and how enterprise buyers discover and evaluate security platforms.

Appknox has spent more than a decade building deep expertise in mobile application security. Our next chapter requires us to evolve both what Appknox stands for and how effectively we take that story to market.

We are looking for a hands-on Lead for GTM Marketing to translate Appknox’s product, positioning and business priorities into integrated go-to-market programmes that create awareness, engagement and pipeline.

You will lead the GTM marketing team and own demand generation, campaigns, ABM, website and conversion, organic discovery, content activation, field marketing and events. You will work as a peer to Product Marketing, partnering closely with Sales, Product and leadership to connect market strategy with disciplined execution.

This is not a role for someone who only manages agencies, runs isolated campaigns or waits to receive briefs. You will help determine where marketing should focus, challenge assumptions, build the operating plan, develop the team and remain close enough to execution to maintain a high quality bar.

What You Will Own

1. GTM strategy 

Translate Appknox’s product, positioning and revenue priorities into a focused GTM strategy, operating plan and measurable goals.

For each significant opportunity, help answer:

Who are we trying to influence? What problem matters to them? What do we want them to believe? What should we take to market? Through which channels? What commercial outcome should it create?

You will:

• Lead and develop the GTM marketing team, creating clarity around priorities, ownership, quality and performance.
• Build quarterly and annual GTM plans aligned with company, product and regional revenue priorities.
• Prioritise across markets, audiences, channels and opportunities rather than allowing every request to become a campaign.
• Manage relevant budgets, agencies and specialist partners.
• Establish clear operating rhythms across GTM Marketing, Product Marketing, Sales and Product.

2. Demand Generation and Integrated Campaigns

Build integrated programmes that create qualified demand and contribute meaningfully to pipeline.

You will:

• Own marketing-sourced and marketing-influenced pipeline targets, measurement and review rhythms.
• Design programmes across inbound, paid, organic, content, webinars, retargeting and emerging acquisition channels.
• Connect campaigns to defined audiences, customer problems, offers, conversion paths and commercial outcomes.
• Diagnose funnel performance and work with Sales and revenue operations to improve conversion.
• Identify successful GTM plays that can be repeated and scaled.

Success will be measured through qualified engagement, opportunity creation and progression, pipeline contribution and conversion-not campaign activity alone.

3. Account-Based and Segment GTM

Partner with Sales and Product Marketing to build focused programmes for priority accounts, industries, personas and regions.

You will:

• Identify segments and accounts where focused marketing can create disproportionate impact.
• Understand buying committees, account-level triggers and market-specific context.
• Work with Product Marketing to develop relevant narratives by segment and buyer.
• Design integrated ABM programmes, offers, landing experiences and content.
• Coordinate marketing engagement with SDR and sales outreach.
• Track account engagement, opportunity creation and progression.

At Appknox, ABM should combine account insight, buying committee, customer problem, narrative, offer and sales motion-not simply apply advertising to an account list.

4. Website, Organic Discovery and Conversion

Transform Appknox.com into an active GTM and experimentation engine.

You will own or drive:

• Information architecture and messaging activation.
• Product, use-case, industry, persona, regional and competitive pages.
• Campaign landing experiences and conversion paths.
• Website experimentation and performance measurement.
• SEO and evolving AI-led discovery across platforms such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity.

You will develop a measurement system connecting discoverability, relevance, engagement, conversion and pipeline. Traffic, rankings and AI mentions alone are not success.

5. Product Launches and Market Activation

Partner with Product Marketing and Product to take new capabilities and products to market.

Product Marketing will lead customer insight, ICP definition, positioning, competitive differentiation and product narrative. You will lead GTM planning and activation across campaigns, website, content, distribution, organic discovery, sales activation, field programmes and amplification.

This is not a downstream handoff. You will participate in launch strategy, contribute market and performance insight, and help test whether the positioning works when exposed to buyers.

6. Content and Thought Leadership

Lead the GTM content agenda and the team responsible for bringing it to life.

You will:

• Determine what Appknox should talk about based on customer problems, market shifts, buyer demand and the company’s strategic point of view.
• Guide the development of category narratives, research-led content, technical thought leadership, competitive content, executive communications and campaign assets.
• Build content distribution into every major initiative rather than treating publication as the finish line.
• Maintain a consistently high standard of clarity, substance and differentiation.

Every significant content investment should answer: Who are we trying to influence? What belief are we trying to change? What should happen after they consume it?

7. Field Marketing and Events

Own the GTM strategy and marketing execution for priority industry events, executive programmes, regional activations and field initiatives.

You will:

• Select and prioritise events based on target audiences, market objectives and commercial potential.
• Build pre-event, onsite and post-event motions with Sales.
• Develop programmes that create meetings, progress target accounts and deepen customer and partner relationships.
• Establish consistent measurement for event-sourced and event-influenced pipeline.
• Balance global consistency with the realities of different regions and sales motions.

8. Market Intelligence and Experimentation

Work with Product Marketing to continuously monitor competitor positioning, market narratives, buyer behaviour, campaign signals, organic discovery and emerging security themes.

Product Marketing will lead the strategic implications for positioning and product. You will ensure relevant market and performance signals translate rapidly into GTM action.

Work Expectations

First 60 days

• Understand Appknox’s market, customers, product portfolio, team, current GTM programmes, website funnel, organic presence and competitive landscape.
• Establish performance baselines and clarify team ownership and operating rhythms.

Within 6 months

• Faster and more disciplined website and campaign experimentation.
• Better coordination across GTM Marketing, Product Marketing, Sales and Product.
• Clearer visibility into which channels, narratives and programmes influence pipeline.
• A repeatable system for taking new products and market narratives to market.

Personality Traits We Admire

• Strategic thinker with strong execution skills.
• Curious, commercially minded, and customer obsessed.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and fast-moving environments.
• Strong collaborator who can influence cross-functional teams.
• Excited by AI and emerging technologies.
• Eager to build and grow with the company over the long term.

What We Are Looking For

• 7–10 years of B2B SaaS marketing experience, ideally within technical SaaS, cybersecurity or enterprise software.
• Experience leading or managing a marketing team, with the ability to set direction, develop people and maintain a strong execution bar.
• Demonstrated ownership of integrated GTM programmes and measurable pipeline outcomes.
• Strong understanding of product positioning and messaging, with the ability to turn strategy into market-facing activation.
• Experience working closely with Sales on demand generation, ABM, field marketing or regional programmes.
• Strong digital and website fundamentals, including conversion optimisation and organic discovery. Familiarity with AEO and GEO is valuable, but deep SEO specialisation is not required.
• Ability to understand technically complex products and simplify them without losing substance.
• Strong analytical capability and a desire to understand why a metric moved—not simply report that it did.
• Excellent writing, storytelling and communication skills.
• Ability to move between strategic thinking, team leadership and hands-on execution.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity, making trade-offs and building systems where none currently exist.
• Low ego, high ownership and the confidence to challenge assumptions constructively.

We’re looking for a growth-minded person to take ownership of our apps.

We build and launch consumer mobile apps across multiple categories.

We’re looking for someone smart, entrepreneurial and obsessed with growth to take ownership of how our apps acquire users and scale.

This is not a traditional marketing role. We’re looking for someone who understands mobile products, paid acquisition, organic growth, analytics and the product lifecycle — and can look at a problem, make a decision and move quickly.

You’ll work closely with the founders and take ownership of growing our apps from 0 → scale.

• Work with product & engineering to turn growth insights into product improvements
• Understand and improve the complete funnel from impression → install → activation → trial → subscription → retention

Tech & tools

You don’t need to be a developer, but you should be comfortable understanding the technology behind mobile growth.

You should know or be comfortable working with:

Firebase Analytics · App Store Connect · Google Play Console · Meta Ads · Google Ads · Apple Search Ads · RevenueCat · Adjust / AppsFlyer · Meta SDK

You should understand how analytics, attribution, advertising, subscriptions and product data fit together.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for someone who:

• Thinks independently and makes decisions quickly
• Is highly analytical and comfortable with numbers
• Understands why a campaign, product or funnel is working — not just how to operate the dashboard
• Has hands-on experience with media buying
• Understands the mobile product lifecycle
• Loves experimentation and finding unconventional growth opportunities
• Understands both marketing and technology
• Keeps up with mobile apps, AI, advertising and growth trends
• Can move quickly from “I have an idea” → “let’s test it.”
• Doesn’t need to be told what to do at every step

Bonus points

You’ve previously:

• Grown a consumer mobile app
• Scaled Meta Ads
• Worked with subscription apps
• Used Firebase Analytics extensively
• Done ASO
• Worked with attribution / analytics SDKs
• Improved trial → paid conversion
• Worked across product, marketing and engineering
• Taken a product from launch → growth → scale

The kind of person we’re looking for

If you’re the person who sees an app, ad or product and immediately starts thinking:

“Why is this working?”

“Why isn’t this ranking?”

“Where are these users coming from?”

“Why aren’t they converting?”

“What should we test next?”

—you’ll probably enjoy this role.

How to apply

Send us your CV/LinkedIn along with 2–3 examples of things you’ve personally grown.

Tell us what you did and, most importantly, the numbers before and after.

We’re looking for someone who wants to own growth, not just execute a marketing checklist.

• Align advertising, creative, landing pages, offers, product positioning, inventory availability, and operational readiness.

LTV, Retention, and Lifecycle Marketing

• Use agency scorecards and recurring performance reviews to track KPI attainment, SLA compliance, output quality, timeliness, efficiency, and business results.
• Require root-cause analysis and time-bound corrective action plans for missed targets, SLA breaches, quality issues, reporting gaps, or inefficient spend.
• Independently validate agency recommendations and recommend contract expansion, renegotiation, reduction, replacement, or termination when appropriate.
• Ensure Starbond retains access to and ownership of advertising accounts, data, dashboards, creative files, documentation, and intellectual property.

Content, Creative, and Brand

• Maintain an active content and creative pipeline supported by clear briefs, owners, deadlines, QA standards, and success metrics.
• Ensure reliable content-production support is available when external resources are required.
• Create a structured process for testing creative concepts, hooks, formats, messages, offers, and calls to action.
• Protect product positioning and perceived value by avoiding excessive reliance on discounting and ensuring marketing claims are accurate and supportable.

Team Leadership, Process, and Reporting

• Lead the internal Marketing team by setting clear responsibilities, deadlines, quality standards, KPIs, communication expectations, and individual performance targets.
• Conduct regular coaching, one-on-ones, performance reviews, and accountability conversations; identify skill gaps and coordinate development or corrective action with HR.
• Make timely recommendations regarding training, role clarity, workload changes, reassignment, or other performance actions when standards are not met.
• Create and maintain marketing processes, approval flows, reporting definitions, campaign documentation, and quality-control systems.
• Maintain a weekly marketing scorecard that distinguishes leading and lagging indicators and explains what changed, why it changed, and what action is required.
• Proactively escalate material risks and present concise, financially grounded recommendations to the CEO.

What Success Looks Like

• Marketing data, forecasts, campaign reports, creative briefs, and recommendations are accurate, validated, and financially grounded.
• Campaigns, agency deliverables, reports, corrective actions, and launches are completed on time, with blockers escalated early.CAC, LTV, LTV:CAC, MER, ROAS, contribution margin, retention, and cohort performance are consistently defined and used to guide decisions.
• Marketing investment produces profitable customer growth, stronger retention, faster learning, higher-quality execution, and stronger brand protection.
• The Marketing team and external agencies operate with clear ownership, measurable standards, and consistent accountability.

What We’re Looking For
