Growth Marketing Lead

Technical Growth Marketing Lead | Series A - Gaming AI-Native Startup | Remote (USA)

Ghost is partnering with a well-funded, fast-growing AI-native startup building next-generation tools for game creators.

The company has raised $30M from Benchmark, Uncork Capital, and notable angels including Suhail Doshi, Ryan Hoover, and Lenny Rachitsky. With a team of just 25 and a major product expansion ahead, they're hiring their first growth marketing hire to build the growth engine from the ground up.

Why Join?Own growth from day one — Set the strategy and build the acquisition engine across paid, organic, social, SEO/AEO, creator partnerships, and community.

Strong backing and resources — Join a well-funded company with significant momentum and the resources to invest behind growth.

Market to a highly technical audience — Help bring innovative developer tools to game creators while avoiding generic growth playbooks.

High ownership, low bureaucracy — Work within a flat, high-trust team where everyone is expected to think independently, move quickly, and take ideas from concept to execution.

Join at a critical inflection point — The company is preparing to significantly expand its product offering and market opportunity, making this a key moment to shape its go-to-market strategy.

Path to leadership — Start as a hands-on IC with the opportunity to build and eventually lead the growth function.
