About the role

You will be the architect of our public presence, bridging deep internet/social culture with high-level growth strategy.
You see growth not just as a spreadsheet of metrics, but as a canvas for creative storytelling.
This is a high-ownership role with a direct line to company strategy - you will empower our first million users to shape the next era of intelligence.

Own the Narrative & the Numbers: Drive weekly active user growth by looking beyond traditional marketing funnels.
Own the active strategy, and bring a rigorous, data-driven lens to every channel and motion.
Build and activate the ecosystem.
Develop partnerships and joint go-to-market motions with complementary companies across the AI and developer tooling space.
Work cross-functionally. Partner closely with marketing, GTM, and the founders to align on messaging, campaigns, and strategy. Feed market and user insights directly into product discussions to help shape the roadmap.
Drive weekly active user growth by looking beyond traditional marketing funnels.
We're building intelligence that evolves alongside you, so we encourage you to keep expanding your horizons.

You know how to make deeply technical concepts trend without losing their substance.
Comfortable working with and around technical products. You don't need to be an engineer, but you can hold a substantive conversation with one and understand how developers evaluate and adopt tools
Both creative and data-driven. You have strong instincts for what will resonate with a technical audience, and you back those instincts with measurement. You know the difference between a vanity metric and a signal that matters
Proven ability to build and manage partnerships - identifying the right companies to work with, structuring joint motions, and following through to drive real outcomes on both sides
Scrappy and self-directed. You're comfortable with ambiguity, can prioritize ruthlessly, and know when to move fast and when to slow down and build the system properly
Above all, we're looking for great teammates who make work feel lighter and aren't afraid to go out on a limb with bold ideas. You don't need to be perfect, but you do need to be adaptable. We encourage you to apply, even if you don't check every box.

Identify key partnerships that scale growth and activate those partnerships- meetups, hackathons, workshops - that bring developers into the Adaption community.

Most AI is frozen in place - it doesn't adapt to the world.
We think that's backwards.
Our mandate is to build efficient intelligence that evolves in real-time.
Our vision is AI systems that are flexible, personalized, and accessible to everyone.
We believe efficiency is what makes this possible - it's how we expand access and ensure innovation benefits the many, not the few.
We believe in talent density: bringing together the best and most driven individuals to push the boundaries of continual adaptation.
We're looking for builders and creative thinkers ready to shape the next era of intelligence.
We are looking for a Founding Growth & Strategy Lead who doesn't just want to scale a user base, but wants to spark a movement.
