Role
Who you are
- Managed and deployed an $XXM paid ads budget
- Has deep experience running paid acquisition across Google, LinkedIn, X, Reddit, and emerging technical channels
- Understands how to market to a technical audience (ML engineers, infra leaders, AI founders)
- Thinks in funnels, cohorts, CAC/LTV, and pipeline contribution
- Is highly analytical and comfortable operating in ambiguity
- Has worked in B2B SaaS or developer tooling
- Has an existential interest in AI and understands the current model/infrastructure landscape
- Can translate complex infrastructure into compelling, conversion-focused messaging
- Moves fast, tests constantly, and optimizes relentlessly

What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Performance Marketing Manager who can own and scale Baseten’s paid acquisition engine
- This role is about building a high-signal, scalable growth machine that converts ML engineers and AI builders into users, pipeline, and revenue
- Own paid acquisition strategy end-to-end, with rigorous funnel analytics (CAC, conversion, pipeline attribution) and clear performance dashboards
- Design and execute structured experimentation across channels, creative, audiences, and landing pages (hypothesis → test → scale)
- Scale high-performing campaigns and audiences to grow qualified pipeline while reducing blended CAC
- Build performance marketing into a predictable, data-driven growth engine aligned to priority ICP segments
Our take
As with its mathematical namesake, Baseten focuses on simplifying the complex. The San Francisco startup focuses on simplifying the integration of artificial intelligence into businesses. The tools that Baseten built demolish the need for businesses to hire specialised engineers, utilising the huge strides in artificial intelligence that we’ve seen in the last few years without adding workload to businesses.
With serious funding behind it, Baseten has grown its team by three times year-over-year over the last five years, especially across engineering and marketing. Having hired talent from companies such as GitHub, Google, Uber, Amazon, and Palantir, part of Baseten's focus is on helping companies implement the tools that they have at their disposal, a long-overlooked aspect of machine learning that many businesses have been eager to champion, but uncertain on how to actually use.
Simplifying the complex world of artificial intelligence for business is no mean feat but the three founders, who met whilst working as engineers at Gumroad, have a lot of experience in how to navigate this gap in the market.
