Head of Growth Marketing - Writesonic

We're hiring a founding growth marketer to take our running growth engine much further. Your goal is to drive aggressive brand awareness and category mindshare, fast, turning it into both enterprise pipeline and PLG trials. You will own the channels, run experiments, and build a small team.

About Writesonic

We're an AI Search Visibility Platform: we help brands get found by AI search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. The category is GEO / AEO, and we lead it. But that's the wedge. We've now shipped the next layer in beta: an agentic marketing operating system, one platform where a human directs a team of AI agents across the whole funnel.

• Stage: YC S21, profitable, seed-funded ($2.6M), strong enterprise traction.
• Team: Lean and engineering-heavy. Marketing today consists of 2 junior growth marketers plus Sam. You'll hire 2-3 more.

The Role

Drive brand awareness and mindshare through fast, timeboxed experiments, then convert that attention into enterprise pipeline and PLG trials. Both motions run off the same digital channels. This isn't greenfield; the channels, infrastructure, and data exist. You will inherit a working system, make it better, and open new channels on top.

What You Own

• Paid acquisition: Google, Meta, LinkedIn (take over, optimize, scale).
• Content and SEO/GEO: Organic and AI-search visibility.
• Lifecycle: Onboarding, activation, retention flows.
• New-channel experiments: Podcasts, YouTube, free tools, influencers, community.
• LinkedIn and personal brand: We sell to marketers.
• Team building: Hire and manage the growth team (2 existing + 2-3 new hires).

Requirements

• Mid-senior IC or first-time manager with strong fundamentals, a growth mindset, and the hunger to move fast.
• T-shaped: Deep in at least one channel (paid, SEO, lifecycle, social), capable across all, from doing the work yourself.
• Experiments-driven: Run 2-3 week timeboxed tests, then kill or scale.
• AI-native: You use AI daily. Non-negotiable.
• Builder: Stand up channels and playbooks from scratch, then build a team around them.
• 5-10 years in growth or digital marketing, B2B SaaS preferred.
