About the role

AnswerThis (YC F25) · US, SF preferred · Full-time

$150,000 base + commission + equity

You've scaled paid acquisition and SEO. Now you want to help accelerate science and build at the frontier of AI search.

AnswerThis has helped over 600,000 researchers accelerate their research by more than 10 times by automating research workflows. We're hiring a growth lead to help many more researchers find us.

You've turned paid ads into a substantial source of customers, ideally personally managing more than $500,000/month in ad spend. You've also substantially scaled acquisition through SEO and can show what you built and the business it brought in.

You'll run campaigns across Google, Meta, LinkedIn and other promising channels. You'll build landing pages, fix tracking, improve conversion and ship SEO and AEO experiments yourself. You'll find and own channels before they become obvious to other teams.

We're building a team that respects scientific acceleration. We're trying to win with limited resources, so initiative, judgment and follow-through matter. You'll work closely with the founders and product team, choose a few strong bets and be accountable for the result.

Apply with your profile, one paid acquisition result and one SEO result. Include the company, baseline, timeframe and your personal contribution; for paid, add the monthly budget and platforms. A few bullets or existing case studies are enough. Include your location and when you'd consider a full-time move.

We're aiming to make this hire by September 20.
