Founding GTM

Lucent (YC W26) · San Francisco, CA · 3 wk ago
HybridOTHR$120k–$160k/yrFull-time

About the role

You'll be working directly with the founder to build Lucent's growth engine from the ground up. We have momentum with initial users that love us - now the hard problem becomes: how do you turn early traction into a repeatable, scalable GTM motion that takes us from hundreds to thousands of customers?

Responsibilities

  • Both motions: nurturing and converting self-serve signups, and running the sales-led cycle for larger accounts
  • Sales - outbound, demo, close, expansion - selling to engineering and product leaders at SaaS companies of all sizes
  • Marketing - content, positioning, demand gen, and the campaigns that fill the top of the funnel
  • The outbound engine, end to end (we run Apollo, Instantly, HeyReach, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator today)
  • ICP and messaging - sharpening who we sell to and the words that make them lean in
  • Onboarding and early customer success, so accounts land and stick
  • The GTM systems underneath it all - sequences, segmentation, reporting, tooling
  • The feedback loop into product - you'll be closest to what users actually need

Requirements

  • You've taken something from 0 to 1 - and then helped push it toward 100
  • A generalist who's run both ends of the funnel - marketing and demand gen at the top, sales and expansion at the bottom
  • Exceptional at selling technical products to technical buyers
  • Comfortable being the first GTM hire
  • Moves fast
  • High agency
  • Sold dev tools, observability, or analytics before
  • Know your way around session replay or product analytics (PostHog, Amplitude, Datadog)
  • Been a first GTM hire or founding team member somewhere early

Qualifications

  • 1+ years of experience in a similar role

Skills

  • Strong communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Experience with CRM tools
  • Knowledge of SaaS products and market trends

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation package including base salary of $120K - $160K
  • Health insurance benefits
  • Flexible work schedule
  • Professional development opportunities

Pay

  • $120K - $160K

Schedule

  • Remote work option
