Job Description

Responsibilities
Responsibilities
  • Growth Infrastructure - Set up attribution, conversion tracking, and reporting from scratch. This is how we know what's working. Without it, everything else is guessing. Build the data layer, automate what can be automated, and make every dollar and hour accountable.
  • Demand Generation - Build and run paid search, paid social, and SEO programs targeting AI/ML engineers, research computing leads, and AI infrastructure buyers. Own top-of-funnel: from first impression to sign-up.
  • PLG Growth - Own what happens after sign-up. Activation, conversion, retention. Run landing page experiments, onboarding optimization, and activation campaigns on cloud.vessl.ai. You care about sign-up to first GPU job, not just sign-up.
  • Content Engine - Build the content strategy that drives inbound demand. LinkedIn (ghostwriting + brand), technical blog amplification, case studies, email newsletters, event collateral. You write like a practitioner, not a marketer.
  • Events & Community - Represent VESSL at conferences, meetups, and developer events. Build community presence in the spaces where AI/ML infrastructure buyers spend time.
  • AI as a Multiplier - Use AI tools (Claude, automation platforms, scripting) to produce creative at scale, analyze campaigns, and compress workflows. You're not afraid of a terminal. You see AI as the way a single person builds what used to take a team. We give you unlimited Claude Code tokens. The stage is yours.
  • In your first 90 days, you'll build VESSL's US demand generation engine from zero. By month 3, you'll have paid channels live, a content cadence running, and a clear view of what's converting and what's not. By month 6, you'll own a repeatable system that's generating qualified pipeline independently.
  • What You'll Own - In your first 90 days, you'll build VESSL's US demand generation engine from zero. By month 3, you'll have paid channels live, a content cadence running, and a clear view of what's converting and what's not. By month 6, you'll own a repeatable system that's generating qualified pipeline independently.
