Our everyday digital experiences are in the midst of a realtime revolution. Whether chatting alongside a livestreaming event, receiving realtime financial information, or working with colleagues in an online collaborative environment - consumers simply expect realtime digital experiences as standard. At Ably we're not just witnessing this revolution, we're powering it - at scale.

At the heart of our mission lies a commitment to putting developers first. Ably provides a suite of products to build, extend, and deliver powerful digital experiences in realtime, delivering billions of messages for millions of devices every day and supporting organizations like Split, Hubspot, Toyota and Genius Sports.

Working at Ably means helping to build the infrastructure and technology that will power and shape the future of the internet. The opportunity in front of us is immense. And we'd like your help.

About this role

We're looking for a Growth Marketing Manager to accelerate Ably's growth across paid, organic, and experimental channels. This is a high-impact role focused on demand generation, paid campaigns, supporting off-site content distribution, and cross-channel experimentation to increase brand visibility and drive ICP-validated signups.

You'll be hands-on with LinkedIn Ads, Google Ads, sponsored placements, and ABM tactics - while also owning campaign performance, creative direction, and channel optimization. If you thrive on running experiments, finding creative ways to reach technical audiences, and turning data into growth wins, we want to hear from you.

Day to day, you will

• Own paid acquisition. Plan, run, and optimize performance-driven campaigns across LinkedIn, Google Ads, display, and sponsored platforms. Deliver qualified leads and optimize CPL/CPA performance.
• Drive channel experimentation. Identify and test new growth channels (e.g. developer platforms, Slack communities, newsletters) to reach our ICP - developers, product managers, and technical decision-makers.
• Maximize content distribution. Collaborate with content and design teams to repurpose existing content for paid and off-site use. Ensure we get the most reach and impact from high-performing content through syndication and targeted promotion.
• Build and run demand gen campaigns. Combine compelling messaging, targeting, and offers to generate MQLs and move prospects through the funnel.
• Turn insights into growth. Monitor campaign and channel performance. Use data to optimize targeting, messaging, and budget allocation. Own and report on metrics like CTR, CPL and pipeline contribution.
  
  

We'd love to talk if you have

• Proven experience running paid media campaigns across Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, and similar platforms for a B2B SaaS or developer-focused audience.
• A track record of turning performance data into campaign improvements - you know what to optimize and when to pivot.
• Strong copy instincts and the ability to craft or guide compelling, channel-specific messaging.
• Familiarity with multi-touch attribution and marketing analytics tools (GA4, HubSpot, SEMrush, Looker, etc.).
• A growth mindset - you proactively test, iterate, and adapt to improve outcomes.
  
  

Bonus points if you have

• Managed or worked with external specialists (freelancers or agencies) on paid search, paid social, or conversion optimization.
• Supported event-based marketing (owned or external) and understand how to maimize pre- and post-event ROI.
• Familiarity with HubSpot, Google Search Console, SEMRush, or similar MarTech tools.
• Worked in a developer-first or API-driven product environment.
