Key Responsibilities

• Own customer and market learning: talk to founders, engineers, product teams; map tools, communities, workflows, and search behavior around the ideal customer.
• Be the tip of the spear for market feedback: engage in social and community channels and surface outside-in signals to product and engineering.

• Build AI-powered GTM infrastructure: prospecting automation, lead scoring/enrichment, customer-facing utilities and demos, lightweight integrations, and MCP-based workflows.
• Automate the GTM stack: wire CRM, data sources, and onboarding funnels; instrument activation and conversion signals and make playbooks repeatable.
• Run rapid experiments: hypothesis-driven small distribution tests across communities, content, integrations, partnerships, and outbound; measure, decide, and scale or kill.

Requirements

• 2–7 years of experience across software engineering, solutions engineering, technical marketing, or growth.
• Deep, hands-on fluency with AI: experience building with modern AI models, agent frameworks, and AI coding agents; use AI daily to scale work.
• Technical ability to build automations, integrations, MCP-based workflows, analytics, and lightweight public utilities or templates.
• Track record of shipping projects or growth channels (core/side projects, internal tools, hackathons, open source, or audience/funnel growth).
• Strong customer empathy, experiment mindset, and comfort communicating via writing, video, or practical projects.
• High ownership, ability to operate autonomously in an early-stage environment, and alignment with company mission and culture.
