About the Role

We're looking for a

Performance Marketing Lead / Director of Growth (Performance)

-- someone who's driven by numbers, experiments, and impact. You'll own paid acquisition end-to-end across Google, Meta, and LinkedIn, and build a predictable, scalable pipeline for growth.
If you're someone who thrives in startup chaos, scales fast, and knows how to turn ad dollars into revenue -- this is your role.

What You'll Do

Performance Marketing (Focus - Google Ads first)

Lead B2B performance campaigns across Google, Meta, and LinkedIn, with a strong focus on lead-gen and funnel optimization. Manage and optimize large monthly budgets ($100K+), driving measurable improvements in CAC, pipeline quality, and ROI. Build a structured experimentation roadmap -- test audiences, creatives, and messaging for higher conversion efficiency. Partner with design and content teams to build scroll-stopping creatives and high-performing landing pages.

Growth Strategy & Analytics

Design and execute the overall growth strategy across inbound and paid channels.
Track and analyze funnel performance across every stage (impression democlose). Build and maintain dashboards in GA4, Amplitude, or Sheets -- with actionable insights shared weekly. Experiment with audience segmentation, ad journeys, and retargeting loops to improve lead-to-deal velocity.

Team & Leadership

Manage and coach a small team of growth specialists and performance marketers. Collaborate with Founders, Sales, and Product teams to align acquisition strategy with business outcomes. Drive clarity, speed, and accountability -- making experimentation a company-wide superpower.

What You'll Bring

5-10 years of experience in B2B SaaS or growth-stage startups with a focus on performance and demand generation. Hands-on expertise with Google Ads (must-have), plus strong knowledge of Meta and LinkedIn Ads. Proven track record managing large-scale paid campaigns with measurable ROI and CAC impact. Deep understanding of B2B funnels, conversion attribution, and lead quality optimization. Strong analytical mindset -- comfortable turning data into insights and strategic action. Leadership experience -- you've built, led, or mentored growth teams before. Excellent communication and presentation skills; clarity and speed in execution are your strengths.

Why You'll Love It Here

Work directly with the founders -- fast decisions, no red tape. Own your function end-to-end -- from strategy to execution to outcomes. Be part of a $10M+ funded rocketship, scaling globally with AI at its core. A high-agency, high-trust environment where impact speaks louder than titles.
