Stealth AI Startup is hiring: Founding Performance Marketing Specialist (Product

We are an Agentic AI startup in Stealth based in Santa Clara, CA. We are on a mission to democratize performance marketing by building autonomous agents that intelligently drive online sales and leads across all major channels, while keeping the business in control of key decisions. We are looking for a Founding Performance Marketing Specialist who is obsessed with the mechanics of ad platforms like Meta and Google. You won't just be running campaigns; you will be the "brain" that our engineers download into our Agentic AI system. How We Are Different Unlike other players in the space where you might manage client accounts using AI tools, here you will work directly with the Founders and Engineering team to define the logic, strategy, and decision-making trees that power our autonomous agents. What You Will Do 1. The “Product Architect” (50%): Codify Your Intuition: Sit side-by-side with AI engineers to explain your workflow. ("Why did you cut that ad set? Why did you switch from tCPA to Max Conversions?") Agent Training: Review the logs of our AI agents. Identify where the AI made a "rookie mistake" and help us retrain our AI. Alpha Testing: You get the first look at every feature. You break it, critique it, and validate it before it touches a customer's account. 2. The "Client Success Lead" (50%) Strategic Onboarding: You will own the onboarding for our early pilot clients, ensuring their ad accounts, pixels, and data feeds are perfectly configured for our AI to take over. Human-in-the-Loop: You will act as the "Super-Admin" for client accounts. You will review the campaign structures created by our AI and override choices as needed to ensure performance reliability. Client Success Calls: You will lead performance review calls with clients. You will act as the "translator"—explaining the AI's strategic moves to the client, and bringing the client's feedback back to our engineering team. The Profile We Need Education: Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business, Data Analytics or a related field Experience: 4+ years of high-volume media buying (spending $100k+/month) on Meta and Google Ads with at least 2 years in an ad agency or a similar setup where you handled 10+ clients simultaneously The "Why" Factor: You don't just click buttons. You understand the advanced targeting, auction dynamics, the pixel fires, and the attribution windows. You can explain complex ad concepts to a non-marketing engineer. Technical Lean: You are comfortable with data. You know your way around Meta and Google Ad Platforms, GA4, Shopify, Hubspot and maybe you’ve even played with Python or SQL (not required, but huge bonus). Builder Mentality: You prefer the chaos and speed of an early-stage startup over the bureaucracy of a large agency. Why This Role? Career Pivot: This is your chance to transition from "Media Buyer" to "Product Strategist" in the AI space. Equity: We offer a meaningful ownership stake. If we win, you win. Location: We work out of Santa Clara. We believe the best problem-solving happens at a whiteboard, not on Zoom. But you will have the flexibility to work one day a week from home, if you like. Competitive Base Salary: $120k - $150k (Based on experience) Performance based cash bonus: Target is 10-20% of base salary (Based on experience) #J-18808-Ljbffr
