Job description

About Us

At Encord, we’re building the AI infrastructure of the future. The biggest challenge AI companies face today is not half as glamorous as the outside world may think: it’s all about data quality. In fact, the success of any AI application today relies on the quality of a model’s training data — and for 95% of teams, this essential step is both the most costly, and the most time‑consuming, in getting their product to market.

As ex‑computer scientists, physicists, and quants, we felt first‑hand how the lack of tools to prepare quality training data was impeding the progress of building AI. AI today is what the early days of computing or the internet were like, where the potential of the technology is clear, but the tools and processes surrounding it are still primitive, preventing the next generation of applications. This is why we started Encord.

We are a talented and ambitious team of 100+, working at the cutting edge of computer vision and deep learning, backed by top investors, including CRV and Y Combinator, leading industry executives like Luc Vincent, former VP of AI at Meta, and other top Bay Area leaders in AI. We are one the fastest growing companies in our space, and consistently rated as the best tool in the market by our customers. We have big plans ahead and are looking for a rockstar Growth Engineer to join our team!

About the Role

Join us at the forefront of AI innovation as a Growth Strategy Operations Analyst, where you’ll have immediate impact on how we scale to serve the world’s leading AI teams. This is a rare opportunity for a talented recent graduate to shape the operational backbone of our go‑to‑market strategy, working directly with our VP of Growth and senior leadership.

You’ll own the design and implementation of growth systems that directly influence our trajectory in one of tech’s most exciting spaces. With 200+ world‑class AI teams already trusting us, you’ll help architect the operations that will take us to the next level. This role offers unparalleled exposure to cutting‑edge marketing technology, strategic decision‑making, and the chance to build scalable systems from the ground up.

Perfect for someone with a rigorous analytical background who wants to apply their problem‑solving skills to real‑world growth challenges, you’ll have the autonomy to experiment, optimise, and drive measurable impact from day one. You’ll be joining during a pivotal growth phase where your contributions will directly shape how we scale. If you’re excited about working at the intersection of strategy and operations in the AI space, this role will accelerate your career in ways traditional graduate schemes simply cannot match.

Responsibilities

• Architect Growth Systems – Design and build automation workflows including lead scoring, routing, and nurturing systems that convert high‑value prospects into pipeline opportunities.
• Own Marketing Technology – Take ownership of our martech stack (HubSpot, Clay, enrichment tools) – optimising integrations and ensuring peak performance to support growth targets.
• Drive Strategic Alignment – Partner with VP of Growth and Sales leadership to translate go‑to‑market strategies into operational excellence, ensuring seamless marketing‑sales handoffs.
• Execute Digital Campaigns – Lead campaign execution from setup and automation through to performance tracking and continuous optimisation.
• Generate Data Insights – Analyse lead flow and conversion metrics, transforming data into actionable insights that drive strategic decisions.

About You

• Exceptional Academic Background – Recent graduate or early‑career professional with strong analytical foundation and proven problem‑solving abilities.
• Systems Thinker – You see patterns others miss and design elegant solutions to complex operational challenges.
• Technical Aptitude – Quick learner comfortable with technology; experience with CRMs, automation platforms, or SQL is a plus but not required.
• Strategic Mindset – Think in terms of leverage and scalability, always questioning how to achieve 10x results rather than incremental improvements.
• Natural Collaborator – Outstanding communication skills to work effectively across Growth, Sales, and Leadership teams.
• Data Fluency – Excited about working with data to uncover insights, whether through Excel, SQL, or new analytical tools.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary, commission and equity in a hyper growth business.
• Strong in‑person culture: most of our team is in the office 3+ days a week.
• Room to grow into anything you choose to — a year ago we were 50 people, now we’re 100+. We’ll be growing insanely fast over the next 24 months and you’ll have all the opportunities for growth as you can handle.
• 25 days annual leave a year + public holidays.
• Encord offers a unique opportunity to be part of a startup with a clear mission and vision. You will get to explore and build services enterprise AI use cases across many different industry verticals such as healthcare, surveillance, retail, agriculture and many more.
• Our work is at the cutting edge of computer vision and deep learning, which also includes working on solving unsolved problems within those fields.
