Growth Lead
WindBorne Systems · Redwood City, CA · 1 wk ago
Marketing$110/hrVolunteer
Responsibilities
- Drive top-of-funnel growth: cold outreach, design-partner recruiting, and viral experimentation
- Own customer acquisition and retention – get hands-on with engagement analytics and talk directly to customers to evaluate satisfaction
- Design viral features and implement product-led-growth loops
- Run monetization experiments to prove out pricing models and willingness-to-pay
- Partner closely with product and engineering as one of our first GTM hires
Requirements
- 2+ years in a 0-to-1 software startup, ideally owning a self-serve or bottoms-up customer acquisition motion end-to-end (internship experience counts)
- Bonus if you've also worked on a product after it achieved PMF and can describe what changed
- You've grown something inside a community, not just around it. You've built engagement in an online forum, industry organization, email list, or subreddit and converted this traction into product engagement
- Hands-on with product analytics – you're familiar with tools like HotJar/PostHog/Mixpanel, and have written SQL queries yourself instead of requesting an engineer-built dashboard
- Enjoy shipping things: landing pages, email campaigns, referral mechanics, scrappy prototypes. Bonus if you've built with LLM APIs
- Experience running pricing experiments – A/B testing things like trial length, paywall placement, usage vs. subscription, willingness-to-pay research. Bonus if you've sold to owner-operators or micro-businesses where the buyer is the operator
- Comfortable with cold, unglamorous recruiting: social media DMs, outbound emails, cold-calling, door-to-door prospecting. A hands-on executor who thinks big – you’re interested in building a business, not just a product, and potentially see this role as a step towards founding your own company someday
- Deep passion for climate, and genuine curiosity about the weather
