The posting

THE ROLE

We're hiring a Growth Engineer to build the engine that takes AthenaHQ to $10M+ ARR.

This is not a "run the blog and manage some paid spend" role. You'll own the entire growth function, working directly with the CEO and founding team to architect a repeatable, scalable revenue system. You will be responsible for both the fuel (the content, messaging, and creative that reaches our audience) and the engine (the channels, systems, and processes that distribute it and convert it into pipeline).

WHAT YOU'LL DO

RUN GROWTH EXPERIMENTS

- Design and execute experiments to increase lead generation across channels

- Test hypotheses, measure results, and report findings to the team

- Double down on what works and build compounding growth loops

- We won't judge you on failed experiments. We value curiosity and grit. Show us what you've got.

BUILD SYSTEMS

- Architect end-to-end systems that make growth repeatable, not ad hoc

- Own the marketing-to-sales-to-CSM handoff: build seamless flows so contacts move through our pipeline without friction

- Set up and manage the tools, automations, and analytics infrastructure that power our growth engine

- You should have a high learning curve and be comfortable picking up new platforms from scratch

TAKE OWNERSHIP

- We operate on a high-agency basis. If you see an opportunity or a problem, you take action instead of waiting for permission.

- Own results and entire areas of the company, not just tasks. At an early-stage startup, your scope expands as fast as you do.

BE AI-NATIVE

- You've built an end-to-end project in Claude Code (or similar) that you're comfortable demo'ing

- You use AI tools daily to move faster, think more clearly, and multiply your output

- Be a power user of the AthenaHQ platform itself, providing daily product feedback to our product team

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- No specific background or years of experience required. We care about your ability to do the job.

- Strong critical thinking. You form your own hypotheses about markets and channels, you don't blindly follow playbooks.

- Systems-oriented mindset. You think in loops, leverage, and compounding, not one-off campaigns.

- Comfort with ambiguity. You can figure out what to do when nobody has told you what to do.

- Bias toward action. You ship, measure, learn, and iterate quickly.

- Clear communication. You can articulate what you're doing, why, and what you've learned.

WHY ATHENAHQ

- Category-defining company. GEO/AEO is one of the biggest shifts in digital marketing in a decade. You'll be at the center of it.

- Real traction. We're not pre-product. We have paying Fortune 500 customers and strong revenue growth.

- YC-backed. W25 batch, with top-tier investors behind us.

- Direct access to leadership. You'll work side-by-side with the CEO and founding team every day.

- Outsized impact. The growth systems you build here will directly determine the trajectory of the company.

DETAILS

- Location: In-person at our San Francisco office, 5 days a week

- Reports to: CEO

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
