As the first dedicated growth hire, you will build the demand generation engine for a platform processing billions of requests for leaders like HuggingFace. You'll bridge the gap between GTM engineering and performance marketing, architecting automated lead systems and high-converting developer campaigns to define a new category of cloud computing.
Head of Growth at $7.3M Seed SF-based AI infrastructure startup
Are you ready to write the growth playbook for the next generation of cloud computing? We are looking for a founding Head of Growth to join a First Round Capital and YC-backed startup that is already processing billions of agent requests for companies like HuggingFace. Founded by a team of six serial entrepreneurs who previously exited their cloud platform, this SF-based team is building the specific infrastructure AI agents need to scale. You will have full autonomy to build a high-velocity demand generation engine from scratch, leveraging advanced AI automation and deep developer marketing strategies. If you are an execution-focused marketer who thrives at the intersection of data and creativity, this is your chance to own growth for a category-defining infrastructure platform.
