Job summary

Harper, a San Francisco–based AI-driven insurance platform, is hiring a Growth Lead to own the end-to-end growth engine—from acquisition to intake and policy binding.

You'll scale the Growth team from 5 to about 10, partner with marketing, sales, and operations, and architect Voice AI to handle high-volume intake.

The role blends hands-on coding with strategic leadership, demanding fast, collaborative decision-making and a track record of growing teams in high-velocity settings.

Qualifications

• You've been a line manager for at least two years, directly managing teams of 6+ people.
• You've come from a product-first company, in a product-first role.
• You've optimized growth funnels end to end, from top of funnel to bottom.
• You've worked in an operations-heavy environment and are comfortable partnering with non-technical stakeholders.
• You're not afraid to get your hands dirty—diving into code when the team needs it, not just directing from above.
• You move fast, and expect your team to as well.

Responsibilities

• Own the Growth org — lead and grow a team from 5 to ~10 over the next three months, with day-to-day management and career development as a core part of the job
• Drive lead acquisition — partner closely with growth and marketing on every distribution surface: web, aggregators, social, paid, and beyond, organic and non-organic
• Own intake capacity — make sure every lead that enters the funnel can be taken through intake and completed to bound coverage
• Architect Voice AI for scale — this is where most of the team's technical complexity sits; build the systems that let intake keep up with demand
• Partner across the business — work in lockstep with growth marketing, sales, and operations as a primary stakeholder group
• Stay hands-on — keep the team unblocked, help shape architecture, dive into code when they're stuck, and write code yourself when it's needed
• Hire the team — build out from 5 to 10, drawing on your own network where you can
