Growth Lead
Posted
Compensation: $55k – $65k • 0.5% – 1.0%
Europe or Latin America · Remote · Full-time###
- Help build the human side of the AI age. As AI becomes more capable, the skills that make us distinctly human - self-awareness, emotional regulation, judgment, empathy, connection, values and purpose - are becoming more important, not less.
- Backed by leading researchers and neuroscientists, Sol is building a global platform to help people develop these human and relational skills.
- Already, more than 1M people use Sol, and we are growing fast. We're now hiring a hands-on Growth Lead to turn that traction into a scalable, profitable subscription growth engine.
- You'll report to the CEO and own consumer growth end to end.
What you'll own###
- Paid growth: Paid acquisition across Meta, TikTok, Google Ads and Apple Search Ads. This includes budgets, campaign structure and bringing agency work in-house.
- Creator / social growth: A high-volume creative testing engine (influencer, creator, UGC and AI-assisted ads), judged on subscriptions, not views.
- The funnel from ad to paying subscriber: store pages, web-to-app funnels, onboarding, paywall, trials and pricing, working with Product and Design.
- Measurement: attribution, incrementality and a weekly view of spend, CAC, conversion, payback and LTV.
- Over time: extending the playbook to our B2B2C efforts (Sol for Schools, Sol for Organizations) and building the team.
In your first 6 months you will:###
- Take ownership of our agency relationships and selectively bring media buying and creative strategy in-house.
- Build a repeatable creative testing system and ship ~10 new ad concepts each week.
- Launch a web-to-app funnel and run our first systematic paywall, trial and pricing experiments
- Build clear weekly dashboards covering spend, acquisition, conversion, revenue, CAC, payback and LTV.
- Help the company consistently hit its payback targets.
- Work closely with Product, Design and Engineering to identify and ship growth opportunities throughout the user journey.
What we're looking for:###
- 4–6 years of experience in performance marketing or user acquisition, ideally at a consumer subscription or mobile-app business.
- Most importantly, you are a hands-on consumer growth operator. You've personally operated growth campaigns - not just managed agencies - and can show us examples of budgets you've managed, experiments you've run and the resulting impact on CAC, ROAS or revenue.
- You've personally managed meaningful paid acquisition budgets across Meta and Google, and ideally Apple Search Ads and TikTok.
- You're fluent in subscription economics: CAC, CPI, conversion, attribution, LTV, retention, ROAS and payback.
- You have strong creative instincts and use AI to make, iterate and test more creative, faster.
- You're highly hands-on. You're comfortable opening Ads Manager yourself, writing a landing page, building a spreadsheet or jumping into analytics rather than waiting for someone else to do it.
- You've worked with creators, influencers, affiliates or other performance-oriented acquisition channels - or have a strong desire to build that expertise.
- You communicate exceptionally well in English and can maintain meaningful working-hours overlap with both our European team and the U.S. market.
- You have unusually high ownership. When something isn't working, your instinct is to figure out why and fix it.
Nice to have:###
- Experience at a consumer subscription, health & wellness, social, education, fintech or AI product.
- Experience scaling a mobile app internationally.
- Experience working in an early-stage or founder-led company.
- Experience building a growth channel from zero rather than simply inheriting one.
- Experience with creator-led growth, B2B demand generation or founder-led sales is a strong plus.
Why Sol:
- Build something that matters. We believe Sol has the opportunity to become a category-defining company addressing one of humanity's defining challenges of the AI age.
- Join an experienced founding team. Sol's founders are repeat entrepreneurs and investors who have built, scaled and exited companies at unicorn scale.
- Come in at an unusually interesting stage. More than 1M people already use Sol, but much of the growth engine is still waiting to be built.
- Own the outcome. You'll have direct access to the CEO, substantial autonomy, real budget responsibility and the opportunity to build a function rather than inherit one.
- This is a role for someone who wants their next job to feel more like building a company than managing a marketing channel. We're looking for someone who could grow into the person running Growth for Sol for many years.
- Location: Europe or LatAm, remote
- Cash Compensation: Competitive salary
- Equity: Meaningful equity (materially more than a normal Growth Lead, adjusted for experience and location, with a path to significantly more as you grow into a senior company leader)
