Growth Lead

We’re hiring a Growth Lead for an early-stage, venture-backed startup building in the future of digital payments and consumer finance.

This is a true 0 → 1 role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, understands internet culture, and knows how to turn attention into growth. You’ll work directly with founders to take a product from launch to its first highly engaged users through experimentation, community, partnerships, and unconventional growth tactics.

The product sits at the intersection of payments, fintech, and consumer internet, with a strong focus on usability, virality, and real-world adoption.

Role Details

• Fully remote

• Candidates in LATAM, North America, or Europe preferred

• Must be able to overlap with GMT-3 / Buenos Aires working hours

• Full-time

• High ownership and autonomy

• Equity available

Requirements

What We’re Looking For:

We’re looking for someone who has:

• Proven experience growing consumer products from zero to first users

• Strong background in consumer app marketing, ideally within payments, remittance, fintech, marketplaces, or high-engagement apps

• Hands-on experience owning acquisition, activation, retention, referral, and repeat usage

• Strong funnel thinking and analytical ability

• Experience designing and running rapid growth experiments

• A highly operational mindset — willing to spend time in communities, replying to users, testing ideas, and executing directly

• A deep understanding of internet culture, attention-driven marketing, and how products spread online

Spanish or Portuguese fluency is strongly preferred.

You Might Be a Fit If…

• You’ve studied or admire the growth strategies behind products like Cash App, Tinder, Polymarket, Pump.fun, StepN, Liquid Death, or GAS

• You think in loops, funnels, and behaviour patterns

• You enjoy testing unconventional ideas quickly

• You’re comfortable operating without an existing playbook

• You’re equally excited by strategy and execution

• You genuinely enjoy figuring out why people share, convert, return, and obsess over products

This role is best suited to someone who likes being in the trenches, not just building growth strategy decks.

Nice to Have

• Experience within crypto or web3

• Experience with Reddit/community-led growth

• Background in fintech, payments, remittance, or viral consumer products

• Strong intuition for social distribution and internet-native campaigns

Benefits

What’s on Offer

• Permissionless culture with direct access to founders

• Opportunity to shape growth from the ground up

• Strong autonomy and rapid decision-making

• Backing from top-tier investors

• Significant upside through equity and long-term growth opportunities
