Job Brief
AirOps is looking for a “cracked” growth operator** to take on special projects that sit at the intersection of product, marketing, and distribution. This role is for a high-velocity experimenter who thrives on building new systems for growth, manufacturing word-of-mouth at scale, and finding non-traditional channels that others overlook.
Your north star: engineer growth that compounds. From designing product-led plays and referral engines to orchestrating breakout campaigns and building AI-first growth systems, you’ll take big swings and ship fast iterations to unlock net-new pipeline.
You’re the person that finds and executes the play that moves the metric — fast.
This is not a traditional channel management role. It’s a seat for someone who wants to invent the playbook — testing, hacking, and building the kind of growth engine that will define what best-in-class looks like in 2030, not 2020.
Responsibilities
Engineer Word-of-Mouth at Scale
Design and launch programs that turn users into advocates through referrals, affiliates, and activation plays.
Build a marketplace-style experience that makes sharing and distribution easy, rewarding, and repeatable.
Drive Product-Led Growth (PLG) Experiments
Partner with product/design to ship lightweight growth features that create shareable value and generate leads.
Develop public-facing assets and recurring value-delivery mechanisms that keep users engaged and amplify distribution.
Run the Experimentation Drumbeat
Prioritize and execute 1–2 growth experiments per week across product, marketing, and distribution.
Move fast: test, learn, kill what doesn’t work, and scale the winners into durable programs.
Architect High-Leverage Campaigns
Create and manage growth campaigns that combine sharp targeting, creative distribution, and rapid iteration.
Use unconventional and non-traditional channels to break through noise and reach the right audience.
Build AI-Native Growth Systems
Use AI and build tools to accelerate insights, personalization, and experimentation velocity.
Develop playbooks and systems that push growth toward what “best-in-class” will look like in the years ahead.
Qualifications
3+ years in growth, product, or hybrid operator roles in high-growth B2B SaaS or startup environments (OR you’re just getting started but want this to be true)
Proven track record of running non-traditional plays that drove pipeline or user adoption
Comfort with both building (experiments, tools, scrappy campaigns) and analyzing (CAC, payback, SQLs/Opps, funnel metrics)
Hands-on experience with modern GTM tools like Clay, Smartlead, AirOps, or similar
Ability to code in Python or similar (for scraping, automation, lightweight data analysis, or stitching systems together)
Strong bias for action: thrives in ambiguity, ships fast, and iterates relentlessly
Excellent storytelling and influence skills — can pitch bold bets and rally stakeholders to support them
Bonus: experience in product-led growth, marketplace dynamics, or affiliate/rev-share models
