• Copywriting: Draft compelling, brand-aligned copy for ads, email subject lines, and SMS alerts that drive action while maintaining our unique brand voice.

Professional Qualifications:- Experience: 3–5 years of direct experience in digital marketing for a D2C/consumer brand. A track record of working within a subscription-based business model is essential.

• Technical Mastery: Hands-on proficiency in Meta Ads Manager, Google Ads and Tiktok. Familiarity with subscription apps like Recharge, Skio, or Stay is highly advantageous.
• Analytical Skills: Strong ability to interpret data. You should be comfortable with Google Analytics 4 and attribution platforms (e.g., Triple Whale, Northbeam).
• Execution-Minded: You are someone who enjoys the technical details of campaign setup and the "craft" of digital marketing.

System1 is building the next generation of AI Agent–powered consumer products, and we’re looking for a Lead AI Product Engineer to help lead the effort. You’ll design, build, and operate our most ambitious AI agent systems from early prototypes through production, owning core architecture, reliability, and performance as these products scale.

​

This is a high-impact, hands-on engineering role for a builder who can move quickly from concept to working systems, shipping, iterating, and hardening real agent workflows that deliver consumer value at scale.

​

This role sits at the intersection of multi-agent orchestration, agentic coding, and production engineering, offering the opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI while directly influencing real-world product outcomes and business performance.

​

You do not need prior experience with every protocol or framework listed below—we value strong systems thinking, production experience, and the ability to learn fast in emerging domains.

​

What You’ll Do:- Build and operate multi-agent systems that plan, coordinate, and execute tasks across multiple tools and services, to solve real user problems at scale.

• Implement agentic coding workflows, where agents generate code, run tests, create diffs or PRs, and iterate autonomously within guardrails.
• Design agent orchestration layers (planners, supervisors, evaluators) to manage task decomposition, retries, and long-running execution.
• Instrument and monitor agent behavior across success, failure, latency, cost, and human overrides, with exposure to agent-to-tool payment flows as the ecosystem evolves.
• Collaborate with Product & Design to translate user problems into shippable agent workflows, iterating quickly based on real-world feedback.

What You’ll Bring:- Strong experience building LLM-powered systems in production, including prompt engineering, structured outputs, tool/function calling, and agentic coding workflows where agents write, modify, and validate code within guardrails.

• Solid backend engineering skills with Python and/or Node.js, designing APIs, async services, and background workers that support long-running, stateful agent workflows.
• Experience designing multi-step, agent-driven execution loops (plan → act → evaluate → retry), with explicit state management, idempotency, and failure recovery.
• Comfort with distributed systems primitives (queues, pub/sub, durable state, rate limiting, concurrency controls) required to coordinate agents at scale.
• Proven ability to instrument and observe agent behavior, emitting structured events for task success, failures, retries, overrides, and code-generation outcomes.
• Experience deploying and operating systems on cloud infrastructure (AWS or GCP), using Docker and CI/CD pipelines.
• Familiarity with inter-agent communication patterns, including message schemas, shared memory, blackboard systems, or event-driven coordination.
• Experience implementing agent evaluation pipelines (prompt regression tests, simulation-based evals, automated scoring, human-in-the-loop review).
• Understanding of cost-aware execution for agents (dynamic model routing, caching, batching, budget constraints).
• Experience with RAG architectures, vector databases, and persistent memory strategies.
• Exposure to emerging agent protocols (e.g., x402 payment flows, MCP), with the ability to implement evolving specs pragmatically.

Who You Are:- You operate with high urgency, agency, and a bias for action, translating ideas into working systems quickly, learning from real-world signals, and iterating continuously.

• You pair speed with rigor, bringing strong engineering fundamentals (systems thinking, evaluation discipline, reliability) so each iteration is meaningfully better, not just different.
• You embrace a “long is wrong” mindset, simplifying, automating, and removing bottlenecks to consistently reduce cycle time.
• You think and act like an owner, making sound tradeoffs and taking end-to-end accountability for performance, reliability, cost, and user experience.
• You optimize for technological leverage, building reusable primitives, tooling, and patterns that compound team output over time.
• You are growth-minded, working backward from LTV/CAC and prioritizing engineering work that moves activation, retention, conversion, and cost per successful outcome.
• You excel at constraint removal, unblocking execution and increasing innovation per unit time, including through agentic tool use with clear guardrails and observability.

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.

We’re looking for a full-stack growth marketer who thrives at the intersection of performance marketing, technical execution, and creative experimentation. This is a hands-on role designed for someone who can take new consumer products (both ad-supported and subscription) from zero to scale — iterating quickly, experimenting relentlessly, and uncovering the breakout opportunities that drive real growth.

​

You’ll own the full growth stack: some days you’ll be knee-deep in attribution setup, conversion tracking, and analytics; other days you’ll be testing creative hooks, launching campaigns across ad platforms, and optimizing bids and audiences in real time. Most importantly, you’ll be hunting for growth levers — finding pockets of opportunity, validating them with rapid tests, and scaling what works.

​

This position is an onsite role requiring you to work in our headquarters located at 4235 Redwood Ave. Los Angeles, CA  90066.

​

What You'll Do:- Build and execute go-to-market growth strategies for early-stage products.

• Work directly with engineers or code yourself to wire up analytics, attribution, and conversion tracking (e.g., GA4, Mobile Measurement Partners (MMPs), Amplitude, etc.).
• Analyze performance data and rapidly iterate on creative, targeting, landing pages, and funnel flows.
• Create and manage short-form video ads and other creative assets that drive conversions.
• Frequently collaborate cross-functionally with leadership, product managers and engineering leads to align growth efforts with product evolution.

What We’re Looking For:- 5-7 years experience driving growth for early-stage consumer products or startups.

• Deep, hands-on experience owning performance and spend in at least one major buying platform (e.g., Meta, Google Ads, TikTok, or programmatic)
• Deep understanding of ad platform mechanics across Search, GDN, Social, Video, and Native.
• Strong technical skills — comfortable working with tracking pixels, APIs, scripts, and analytics tools.
• Proven track record of taking a product from 0→1, finding breakout opportunities, and scaling them into meaningful revenue.
• Obsessed with experimentation and able to manage rapid test-and-learn cycles, sharing results with high levels of leadership across multiple products.
• Creative, analytical, and adaptable — able to move seamlessly from strategy to execution.

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

We're launching a new lead generation business to diversify our revenue streams beyond Google. This is a true startup opportunity within an established company—you'll be building from absolute zero: no revenue, no team, no playbook. We're looking for an entrepreneurial leader to serve as the founding GM of this business line, with full ownership to define strategy, build operations, and scale to profitability.

​

Think of this as being a CEO of your own company, but with the backing of our existing technology infrastructure, financial resources, and organizational support. If you've ever wanted to build something from scratch while having enterprise-level resources at your disposal, this is it.

​

This position is an onsite role requiring you to work in our headquarters located at 4235 Redwood Ave. Los Angeles, CA  90066.

​

What You'll Own- Strategy & Vision:

• Define and execute the complete go-to-market strategy for a lead generation business
• Identify target verticals, pricing models, and competitive positioning
• Build financial models and set ambitious but achievable growth targets
• Make all key strategic decisions on product direction and market approach
• Business Operations:
• Operationalize every aspect of the business from the ground up—sales, operations, technology implementation, vendor relationships, compliance, and more
• Design scalable processes and systems before you have a team to run them
• Manage full P&L responsibility with targets for profitability and growth
• Establish metrics, reporting frameworks, and operational dashboards
• Team Building & Leadership:
• Recruit and build your team as the business scales and warrants investment
• Define roles, responsibilities, and organizational structure from scratch
• Create a culture of accountability, experimentation, and rapid iteration
• Develop your future leaders as the business grows into a substantial organization
• Scale from solo contributor to managing a team that could quickly become significant in size
• Product & Market Development:
• Shape product strategy based on market feedback and competitive landscape
• Work with existing engineering and tech teams to leverage company infrastructure
• Identify and evaluate partnership opportunities (supply and demand side)
• Iterate quickly based on what's working and what's not

Who You Are- Experience:

• 7+ years in lead generation, performance marketing, or related digital businesses
• Proven track record building or scaling businesses from early stage (ideally $0-$10M+ revenue)
• Deep understanding of lead gen economics: CPL, CPA, margin structures, quality metrics
• Experience managing P&L and achieving profitability targets
• Background in both strategy formulation and hands-on execution
• The Operator Mentality:
• You're comfortable with ambiguity and building when there's no roadmap
• You can do the work yourself before you have a team to delegate to
• You move fast, make decisions with incomplete information, and course-correct quickly
• You've worn multiple hats before—you're not afraid of work outside your job description
• You think like an owner, not just an operator
• Skills That Matter:
• Strategic thinking with the ability to see around corners and anticipate market shifts
• Financial acumen—you can build models, understand unit economics, and make data-driven decisions
• Strong network in the lead generation ecosystem (buyers, sellers, technology providers)
• Excellent communication skills for securing buy-in from leadership and cross-functional partners
• Technical fluency to work effectively with engineering and product teams
• The Intangibles:
• Entrepreneurial fire—you're energized by building, not just managing
• Resilience and grit—you've failed before and learned from it
• High bias for action—you'd rather test and learn than analyze forever
• Creative problem-solver who finds unconventional solutions
• Self-awareness to know when to ask for help or bring in expertise

Why This Role is Unique- True Ownership: You're not inheriting someone else's strategy or fixing a broken business—you're creating from scratch

• Resource Backing: Unlike a traditional startup, you have access to enterprise technology, legal, finance, and operational support
• Speed to Market: Leverage existing infrastructure to move faster than you could at a standalone startup
• Upside: Build something valuable with the resources of an established company and the autonomy of a founder
• Career Acceleration: Successfully building a new business line positions you for senior executive roles (VP, C-suite)

Reporting & Organizational Context- Reports to: President & COO

• Cross-functional Partnerships: Engineering, Finance, Legal, Compliance, existing business unit leaders
• Direct Reports: You'll build your team as needed (initially 0, scaling to 5-10+ over first 18 months)

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
