Role

Who you are

We’re looking for someone with deep expertise in performance marketing strategy, tools, and strong analytical skills
3+ years of experience in growth / performance marketing at high-growth tech companies
Proven ability to launch, scale, and optimize paid channels
Experience with AI-driven marketing tools, creative ops engineering, and workflow automation (N8N, Gumloop, Zapier)

What the job involves

The growth team drives user and revenue growth across Exa’s consumer and enterprise API products
We recently raised a Series B from Benchmark, and we are rapidly building the most intelligent search engine in history
Now, we’re looking for a Growth Marketer to help us bring Exa to the world!
You’ll work with leadership, engineering and marketing to deliver measurable impact across a variety of channels and move quickly from concept to launch
Design and execute paid user acquisition campaigns across scalable channels (search, influencers, emails, social) to driver user growth
Lead experiments and A/B tests — analyzing data, finding insights, and turning those insights into scalable conversion improvements
Develop AI workflows to scale how we reach out to potential users, and activate our existing users
Scale outbound, creative direction, and management of creator partnerships

Our take

The way we currently query AIs means that the models we rely on are themselves reliant on the quality of internet search tools. To answer this, Exa is building a tool that allows AI models to perform the equivalent of a web search, making the models more effective in their responses to our questions.

Exa’s embeddings-based search engine is free of “hallucinations” (those bizarre search query answers that AI sometimes brings back to users). Also, in the same way that LLMs complete sentences, its predictive technology does the same for search queries by providing the next probable link.

It's an alluring product for companies and individuals who want to accelerate their research answers. It's also one of a kind at present, which has led to several successful funding rounds which will help accelerate its product. If it maintains its current momentum, Exa could well be the AI search engine of the future.
