HPX is seeking a Dubai-based growth expert to lead 0-to-1 market entry and user acquisition in emerging markets, focusing on fintech, crypto, remittance, or e-commerce. You will define the playbook with the CEO and co-create a localized, trust-driven launch and scale through hands-on execution.
You will personally test channels (diaspora networks, crypto communities, KOLs, campus groups), optimize CAC and retention, and build a lean team once the model works, embedding deeply with local partners
Parachute into a chosen emerging market (e.g., Bolivia) and, in the shortest time possible, get clear on: who the target users are, how they currently buy and sell stablecoins, where the pain points are, which competitors and local players exist, and the real state of regulation and payment rails. Turn this into first‑hand, decision‑ready intelligence—not recycled second‑hand reports.
Build the full market‑entry playbook together with the CEO, product, and operations—then own the execution independently: how the first 100 seed users are acquired, how the first 1,000 funded‑active users are acquired, and the CAC hypothesis and validation for each channel.
Design and personally test acquisition channels: diaspora communities, Telegram/WhatsApp/X communities, local KOLs/micro‑influencers, community OTC agents, campus and savings groups (e.g., chama/SACCO‑type), referral mechanics, and more. Prove a repeatable acquisition model on a minimal budget, and own retention—not just sign‑ups.
Not a VI kit that looks good at HQ, but HPX's brand delivered in a way local users trust: localized messaging, trust narratives (compliance, reserves, security), and social/content presented in the local language and cultural context.
Find and enter the genuinely active crypto / remittance / freelancer / importer communities in the market, build HPX's presence and word‑of‑mouth inside them, and turn communities into a flywheel for acquisition and retention.
Start as an individual contributor; once the playbook works, recruit and lead a lean 2–3 person team (which may include local growth, community, and content roles).
