Job Summary

Open to any location - Working EST timezone

Were the all in one agentic marketing platform. AI native from day one. Were not joining a category were defining it.

Were looking for someone who will own paid acquisition on Meta and Google and run it with AI agents doing real work. If you want real ownership move fast and raise the bar every week keep reading. If set it and forget it is your bidding strategy this isnt the role.

What youll own

  • Paid acquisition on Meta and Google against a trial CPA target. Structure bidding budgets and pacing all within monthly caps.

  • Agent workflows that check performance daily move budget from losing campaigns to winners and cross check reporting across models. Plus the visual map of how it all runs.

  • What runs and where budget goes. You turn performance data into briefs for our creative strategists who build the ads.

  • Paid landing pages and funnel CRO with design and dev. Every lander matches its ad and every test moves CPA.

  • Tracking we can trust from first click to activation and unit economics (CAC payback LTV) that new products launch on.

  • Launching ads for new products with zero history across self serve and sales led funnels.

About half your week is media buying and analytics. The rest is split between building agents and running landing page tests.

What were looking for

  • 5 years of hands on media buying on Meta and Google managing $100K a month

  • Deep Meta expertise. You know what ads work how to structure them and how to scale a winning concept.

  • Agency side experience

  • SaaS or B2B experience with free trial or book a demo funnels

  • Youve built your own automation with LLMs (Claude ChatGPT APIs scripts n8n Zapier or similar) that you use on ads every week like performance checks budget moves or reporting. You can explain how it works.

  • Strong with GA4 PostHog ad platform reporting and spreadsheets

  • A track record of landing page and creative tests that lowered CPA

Nice to have

  • SQL

  • LinkedIn ads

  • Launching sales led or book a demo funnels

  • HubSpot and Stripe

Youll thrive here if...

  • You know whats working whats broken and what to do about it before anyone asks.

  • Youve lived through Meta volatility and know when to touch things and when to leave them alone.

  • You can explain a CPA spike to a founder in one chart.

  • You dont wait to be told what to do. You see the gap and you move.

  • Deadlines dont rattle you. Ambiguity doesnt either.

  • Youre an AI power user not someone whos open to learning it someday.

  • You have opinions and youre not afraid to bring them.

  • You can laugh at a chaotic week on Friday and mean it.

What working here actually looks like

High expectations. Real ownership. Things change fast and we dont apologize for it. Youll work with smart people who push you a product that keeps getting better and a team thats genuinely building something new.

Well probably give you more to own than you expected. Thats on purpose.

We use AI every day across every function. Thats just how we work.
