Founding Performance Marketing Lead

Neuroscale AI

2d

About The Position

Neuroscale AI is building an AI Recruiting Operating System - one unified platform for the talent organization, from first touch through evaluation and hire. Our flagship platform, Arbi, helps companies discover, engage, screen, and evaluate talent at scale using AI-native intelligence, automation, and data. We have invested deeply in the product. Now we are building the repeatable growth engine that brings it to market.

We are hiring a Founding Performance Marketing Lead to own performance and growth marketing from the ground up. This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone who wants to build the machine - not inherit one.

You will own the path from first impression to click to conversion to qualified pipeline to closed ARR. That includes paid acquisition, creative testing, landing pages, attribution, funnel instrumentation, conversion-rate optimization, audience discovery, and early product-led growth experiments.

You will work directly with Neuroscale's founders and partner closely with Product, Design, Sales, and Revenue Operations. You will have the autonomy to test quickly, scale what works, stop what does not, and turn learning into repeatable playbooks.

Requirements

• 4-8+ years of hands-on performance marketing, growth marketing, or demand generation experience, ideally in B2B SaaS, AI, HR Tech, recruiting technology, or another high-growth technology category.
• A track record of personally managing and scaling approximately $50K-$250K+ per month in paid media across LinkedIn, Meta, Google, or comparable channels - and translating that spend into qualified pipeline and revenue.
• Deep hands-on experience inside ad platforms. You can build campaigns, audiences, conversion tracking, creative tests, budgets, bids, and optimization logic yourself.
• Demonstrated ability to connect channel spend to downstream funnel performance, opportunity creation, pipeline, and ARR.
• Strong command of funnel economics, including CPL, CAC, LTV, CAC payback, conversion rates, pipeline velocity, and marginal acquisition efficiency.
• Experience building and improving landing pages, forms, demo flows, or trial experiences with a strong CRO mindset.
• Strong creative instincts and copy judgment. You can diagnose why a message or creative concept is working - not merely report that CTR changed.
• Experience testing video, UGC, creator-led, founder-led, or short-form paid creative.
• Comfort with analytics, dashboards, CRM data, experimentation, attribution, and imperfect early-stage datasets.
• Ability to move quickly from hypothesis to launch to data to insight to the next test.
• Strong written communication and the ability to translate customer pain into clear, high-converting messaging.
• A builder mentality: high ownership, low ego, strong judgment, and a preference for creating the playbook rather than waiting for one.

Nice To Haves

• Built performance marketing from near-zero at an early-stage or high-growth B2B SaaS company.
• Scaled one or more paid channels into a predictable source of qualified pipeline while maintaining disciplined acquisition economics.
• Experience in HR Tech, recruiting technology, AI, developer tools, enterprise SaaS, or another complex B2B category.
• Built a UGC, creator, customer-proof, or founder-led creative program that materially improved paid performance.
• Hands-on experience with platforms such as HubSpot or Salesforce; Webflow or Framer; GA4; Segment; Mixpanel or Amplitude; Clay; Zapier or Make; and modern attribution or ad-tracking tools.
• Built lightweight automations, scripts, dashboards, or AI-assisted workflows yourself.
• Worked with Product teams on PLG, free-trial, self-service, lifecycle, or activation experiments.
• Used AI tools systematically to accelerate research, creative production, analysis, personalization, and experimentation.

Responsibilities

• Build and scale the paid acquisition engine: Launch, manage, and optimize acquisition across LinkedIn, Meta, Google, retargeting, and emerging channels. Personally manage meaningful media spend and make channel decisions based on pipeline quality, acquisition economics, and revenue - not vanity metrics.
• Turn creative into a growth system: Build a high-velocity testing engine across short-form video, UGC, founder-led creative, static ads, customer proof, use-case creative, case studies, and landing-page concepts. Develop a repeatable process for creative briefs, production, testing, learning, and iteration.
• Own the conversion funnel: Build and continuously improve the journey from ad to landing page to demo or trial to activation. Create and ship landing pages without waiting on a large web team, and work with Product and Design to remove friction from high-intent conversion paths.
• Make measurement and attribution decision-grade: Own campaign tracking, UTMs, pixels, events, conversion APIs, CRM campaign logic, attribution models, dashboards, and funnel reporting. Create a clear view of what is producing qualified pipeline, what is wasting spend, and where conversion is breaking down.
• Run a disciplined experimentation program: Design and execute continuous A/B and multivariate tests across hooks, creative, copy, audiences, offers, landing pages, CTAs, forms, demo flows, and channel mix. Maintain an experiment backlog and use data to decide what to scale, iterate, or kill.
• Discover and codify our best audiences: Identify the ICP signals, personas, use cases, pain points, messages, offers, and targeting strategies that consistently produce high-quality opportunities. Turn those findings into reusable audience and messaging playbooks for Marketing and Sales.
• Help shape product-led growth: Partner with Product and Revenue on activation, self-serve conversion, trial-to-paid pathways, in-product prompts, lifecycle nudges, and other early PLG loops that can complement the sales-led motion.
• Automate for leverage: Use AI, no-code/low-code tools, enrichment, workflow automation, and light scripting to increase testing velocity and reduce repetitive work. Build a marketing operating system that can test 20 thoughtful ideas where a traditional team might test two.

Benefits

• Specific base compensation, performance incentives, equity or long-term participation, and benefits will be discussed with qualified candidates and finalized based on experience, location, and employment structure.
