Build an AI discovery strategy that earns trust across the web, gets your brand chosen by AI, and drives growth with AirOps. Backed by Greylock.
About the role
We are hiring a Head of AI Ads to define, invent, and lead this emerging new product line. You will be AirOps’ principal authority on generative ads, building the foundational playbooks for how the world's top brands deploy capital across LLM-driven discovery channels. Equal parts category-defining strategist, growth systems engineer, and 0 to 1 operator, you will sit at the tip of the spear: converting early market signals into scalable product motions and teaching the industry how to win in the post-search era.
What they're looking for
- Spiked Performance & Growth DNA: Proven track record leading high-scale performance marketing, SEM, or paid media teams with deep mastery of auction mechanics, bidding logic, targeting, and multi-touch attribution
- 6+ years experience in performance marketing, growth, digital advertising, or related relevant fields at high growth startups
- First-Principles Innovator: A history of pioneering new, unproven channels or markets before standard playbooks existed. You thrive in complete ambiguity and create order out of noise
- Holistic Growth Instincts: Sharp strategic judgment across both paid and organic levers. You view discovery as an integrated ecosystem, not just a series of isolated ad buys
- Quantitative Rigor: Strong analytical instinct with a data-first approach to budget allocation, unit economics, incrementality, and performance measurement
- AI & Search Curiosity: Deep, active fascination with AI-native discovery, LLM evolution, and answer-engine landscapes (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, etc.)
More about this role
AirOps is the full-service platform for brand growth in the age of AI search. As consumers shift from traditional search engines to platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, the entire ruleset of growth is being rewritten. Buyers now rely on agents to discover, recommend, and purchase products and services for them. If your brand isn't part of the answer, you aren't in the running.
Our platform offers everything a brand needs to get found, recommended, and earn trust. We work with category leaders, including teams at Ramp, Chime, Airbnb, ServiceNow, and Rippling, to drive visibility and accelerate growth from AI search.
Backed by Greylock, Unusual Ventures, Wing VC, and Founder Collective, we're headquartered in San Francisco, New York, and Montevideo.
