Founding Head of Developer Growth

Hellyeah AI•San Francisco, CA

14h•Onsite

About The Position

Hellyeah AI is building AI-native growth and marketing infrastructure for the next generation of fast-growing companies. Tools like text-to-app, code generation, and agentic workflows are collapsing the cost of building. As creation gets easier, distribution becomes the new moat. We are building the growth layer for that future. Our belief is simple: the next generation of builders will not just prompt software into existence. They will also expect growth, distribution, testing, and launch execution to become agentic. Hellyeah exists to make that real.
