Job Summary

Drive platform growth by building a creator ecosystem and a scalable user flywheel with founder-level ownership.

  • Must-have: Demonstrated ability to grow communities, marketplaces, or consumer products from early stage or zero.
  • Standout: Founder mentality with willingness to operate under uncertainty and own expansion into a category-defining platform.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the next chapter of the business: building a creator ecosystem and user flywheel strong enough to turn early traction into a category-defining platform.
  • Think at the level of marketplace strategy, creator behavior, growth loops, and brand momentum, while also being highly execution-oriented.
  • Personally test ideas, recruit creators, build partnerships, and iterate relentlessly.
  • This is not a conventional operating role — it is for someone who wants founder-level ownership, embraces uncertainty, and is motivated by building something that could become much larger than either of us individually.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated ability to grow communities, marketplaces, or consumer products from early stage or zero
  • Strong instinct for viral distribution, creator ecosystems, and audience psychology
  • Willingness to personally execute — from outreach and partnerships to testing growth experiments
  • Comfortable forming hypotheses quickly, testing aggressively, and abandoning weak ideas without ego
  • Ability to think strategically while operating under severe resource constraints
  • Comfort with ambiguity, iteration, and making decisions with incomplete information
  • Strong communication skills across creators, users, partners, and future investors
  • Commercial instinct: ability to identify partnerships, monetization opportunities, and growth leverage points
  • Analytical mindset with fluency in measuring what works, what does not, and why
  • Founder mentality: resilience, urgency, ownership, and appetite for risk

Preferred

  • Experience in consumer social, creator economy, marketplace businesses, or fashion-adjacent platforms
  • Prior startup or early-stage leadership experience
  • Existing network among creators, influencers, brands, or consumer growth operators
