About Us

BugMD makes plant-powered pest control that actually works. Our line of sprays, controls, and devices helps people deal with pest problems quickly and with confidence, and it’s sold on Amazon, direct-to-consumer, and at major national retailers including Walmart and Home Depot.

We’re not a startup hoping something works. We’ve taken pest control from an idea to a category leader on Amazon and onto retail shelves nationwide, and built a brand that consumers love. We move with the speed of a startup: small teams with real ownership and accountability.

This is the place where you’ll see the entire machine: sourcing, product development, formulation, packaging, manufacturing, compliance, marketing, marketplace strategy, retail, all in one team. If you want to build and ship consumer products at scale, there is no better place than this.

Role Summary

The VP of Growth owns the digital demand engine across DTC, TikTok Shop, Amazon (in partnership with Marketplace), and Paid Social. This leader is responsible for driving profitable new customer acquisition, improving LTV, scaling creator-driven performance, optimizing CAC/MER, and building a high-output creative and media engine that is efficient, compliant, and predictable.

This role requires a hybrid mindset combining performance marketing, creative strategy, data fluency, and cross-functional leadership. The VP of Growth must be able to scale marketing from a scrappy, fast-moving model to an institutional-grade, multi-channel growth engine capable of supporting a business at significantly larger scale while maintaining contribution margin discipline.

The ideal candidate brings deep experience in DTC, e-commerce, or CPG environments, with significant ownership of growth budgets and extensive experience across Meta, TikTok, creator-led growth, and full-funnel performance marketing.

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.
