We’re backed by First Round Capital and Y Combinator, among other great investors and operators.\nWe work in person, with teams in San Francisco and New York. Two principles guide how we work: build momentum and build trust. We keep things simple and ship quickly, while taking seriously the responsibility of running a customer’s website and marketing.\nAbout the role\nOur founding Growth Marketer will use Ploy to grow Ploy. You’ll become a true power user: building creative marketing workflows, connecting tools and data, and pushing the product to its limits.

Set channel goals, manage budgets, and grow qualified traffic, signups, and demo requests.\n\nRun conversion experiments across ad creative, audiences, offers, and landing pages. Drive your workflow in Ploy: develop a clear hypothesis, launch the test, and use the results to improve campaign performance.\n\nBuild targeted email campaigns that help new users get started, convert free users to paying customers, and re-engage users who have gone quiet.\n\nTrack channel performance through to activation, paid conversion, and sales pipeline. Use acquisition costs and customer quality to decide where to increase investment, make changes, or stop spending.\n\nPartner with engineering, product, and design on new capabilities. Test them in live campaigns and share specific feedback on what works and what needs refinement.\n\nBackgrounds we’re looking for\n3+ years of relevant experience in growth marketing, performance marketing, or demand generation, ideally at a startup.\n\nA track record of measurable growth: increasing qualified signups or marketing-sourced pipeline, improving conversion rates, or lowering customer acquisition costs.\n\nDeep experience in at least one digital acquisition channel, with hands-on ownership of campaigns, budgets, targeting, and optimization.\n\nHands-on experience building marketing automations and AI workflows. You can connect tools and data, orchestrate agents, and evaluate and improve the results.\n\nStrong analytical skills. You can set up tracking, analyze funnels, and design experiments that produce useful answers.\n\nSharp judgment on messaging and creative. You can write effective ads, emails, and landing pages, and give designers specific, useful feedback.\n\nLocation\nSan Francisco, CA (our office is in the Financial District).
