Growth Lead

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a high-trust, cross-functional role at an early-stage AI infrastructure company building the platform for reinforcement learning environments and post-training data. As Growth Lead, you will own recruiting, culture, and community from the ground up, acting as a key evangelist for the company's vision across the frontier AI ecosystem. The impact here is direct: you will shape who joins the team and how the company shows up in the world.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Tell the company's story and build excitement around its mission through worldbuilding and content.

- Find, connect with, and meet candidates, AI engineers, researchers, and other key players in the AI ecosystem.

- Define company culture and values, then screen candidates and build an onboarding process grounded in them.

- Own end-to-end recruiting operations, including systems, tooling, and automated workflows, in partnership with the Chief of Staff.

- Host and represent the company at community and industry events alongside the Marketing and Events Lead.

- Collaborate with GTM Engineers to identify and open pathways to high-priority leads and partners.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- 3 to 8 years of experience across recruiting, community building, content creation, or GTM at early-stage startups.

- Demonstrated ability to own end-to-end recruiting processes and build or optimize recruiting operations and tooling.

- Experience finding and engaging technical communities, whether through sourcing, ecosystem building, or business development.

- Strong interpersonal skills: well-spoken, extraverted, and skilled at reading people and building relationships.

- Ability to understand complex technical products in the AI or ML space and explain them clearly and accurately.

- Experience defining company culture and developing new hire onboarding programs.

- Track record creating content for marketing or community engagement, with a portfolio of writing samples.

- Genuine enthusiasm for frontier AI models and a clear point of view on how great technical companies tell stories.

- Established network within RL research, RL engineering, or the broader startup community is a strong plus.

- Comfort operating independently in fast-moving, ambiguous environments with evolving scope.
