Growth Marketing Lead

Moon Engine is an AI-native recruiting-ops platform. We use autonomous agents to coordinate hiring decisions with governance, auditability, and continuous adaptation to user preferences.
We are hiring our first Growth Marketing Lead to build go-to-market from zero.
This position owns positioning validation, paid experimentation, funnel mechanics, customer-proof systems, and performance reporting. There is no existing marketing or RevOps function. You will build the growth engine from scratch.
This is a hands-on, experiment-driven role for someone who thrives in ambiguity and ships fast.
Open to candidates in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland.
C2 English is required.
