## About the role

Lane 1: Experienced operator — You've already driven growth at a strong startup and want much more ownership, scope, and upside as the person who builds the motion from scratch. Lane 2: Exceptional emerging builder — Less conventional experience, but you've already run experiments that worked, write unusually well, move fast, and show real evidence of ownership. We care about slope and output over pedigree.

## What they're looking for

- A track record of driving real growth — pipeline, signups, or revenue — ideally at an early-stage startup
- Roughly 1–5 years is a good baseline, but we'll flex for someone unusually strong
- Ability to run growth full-stack with high autonomy: strategy, execution, and the tooling to make it happen
- Strong writing and taste — you can make a page or a cold email that actually converts
- Comfort with data: you can instrument a funnel, read it, and act on it
- High agency: you notice problems, propose solutions, and drive things to completion
