Startpage is the second-largest private search engine on the planet, used by millions who demand a better, safer web. We’re entering a major new growth chapter - and we’re hiring a growth hacker to build the engine that powers it.
This is not a traditional marketing role. It’s a high-visibility, high-ownership position for a creative builder who wants to shape how a category-defining product scales. You’ll report directly to the General Manager of Startpage, operate with significant autonomy, and lead the programs that accelerate acquisition, activation, and loyalty across web, app, and browser experiences.
If you’re a roll-up-your-sleeves builder and an AI-powered strategist who takes ideas from 0→1, this is your stage.
This position is an onsite role requiring you to work in our headquarters located at 4235 Redwood Ave. Los Angeles, CA 90066.
The Role You Will Have:- Own the growth roadmap for Startpage: design, test, and scale initiatives that expand reach, app installs, and browser usage globally.
- Lead the non-paid growth playbook: content flywheels, organic social, community and forums, partnerships, IRL pop-ups, surprise-and-delight stunts - anything that earns attention and trust.
- Run smart bets with exploratory budgets across channels; double down where you see signal and sunset what doesn’t move the needle.
- Hands-on ownership: ideate, prototype in AI, make the assets, launch the campaign, wire the tracking, iterate.
- Launch campaigns across TikTok, app stores, influencer and creator collaborations, podcasts, brand partnerships, and viral social formats - then author crisp business cases for where we invest next.
- Define KPIs, instrumentation, and dashboards; make data-driven calls to scale, pivot, or kill experiments quickly.
- Be our trend radar and cultural translator: bring fresh ideas from the internet’s front lines into our growth engine.
- Partner tightly with social, product, design, and analytics to ship fast, learn faster, and create compounding growth loops.
What You Will Bring:- 5+ years in growth marketing or a related role, with a track record of non-traditional, high-velocity experimentation for tech or digital products.
- Scrappy attitude: 0→1 builder who executes end-to-end. Prioritizing doing over delegating.
- Sharp analytical chops; you can evaluate full-funnel performance across channels and distill complex data into clear, decisive next steps.
- Hands-on experience allocating budgets and working with influencer/creator programs.
- Comfort building and prototyping using AI tools.
- Bonus: experience growing subscription businesses or mobile apps.
Why This Role Is Different:- Global canvas, real impact: You’ll shape the growth of a product millions use every day, in a category that truly matters - privacy.
- Autonomy with upside: You’ll run the playbook, place the bets, and get the resources you need as channels prove out.
- Visibility and velocity: Direct line to leadership, rapid iteration cycles, and the chance to define how a beloved product breaks into its next phase.
What We Have To Offer:- Competitive salary + bonus + equity
- Generous PTO + 11 company holidays
- Open sick time
- 100% covered Medical, Dental, Vision for employees
- 401k with match
- Health & Dependent Care Flex Spending Account
