mechanism-ventures - Growth Engineer
Requirements
• This role is for someone who has led growth, but never got too far from the work. • You are likely a fit if you: • Have run meaningful budget through Google, Meta, or other paid acquisition channels • Know how to connect campaign performance back to unit economics, contribution margin, and profitability • Believe the best growth leaders are still operators, not just managers of operators • Think in systems, not just campaigns • Care deeply about unit economics and profitability • Want exposure to a portfolio of companies without being spread thin • Are comfortable making clear calls with imperfect information • 6+ years in performance marketing • Deep, current hands-on experience running Google Ads and Meta Ads at material scale • Track record of profitable scale in DTC or e-commerce • Hands-on experience with SKU testing, landing page optimization, and CRO • Technical fluency - you’re building in Claude Cowork, used GA4, built living dashboards, or shipped scripts to automate parts of your workflow • First-principles thinking and bias to action where you ship in hours and days, not weeks • Strong written communication and instinct for tight, evidence-based reporting • Comfort leveraging AI, automation, and modern growth tooling • Time Commitment • This role is full-time and will need to overlap with US ET for the majority of the workday. It is an exciting opportunity that demands a level of dedication beyond the standard 9 to 5. We need someone who's willing to go above and beyond to help us achieve our ambitious goals, and who's eager to put in the effort to make a real impact. • US-Based - Fully remote.
Responsibilities
• Own paid acquisition end-to-end at HeySunday, including strategy, channel mix, budget allocation, and the day-to-day work inside Google Ads and Meta Ads Manager • Be in platforms daily, not just reading dashboards • Design, run, and read a high-cadence SKU testing program. Double down on what works and kill what doesn’t • Build and own HeySunday’s growth model and reporting layer • Direct Mechanism’s engineering, design, and creative teams to ship landing pages, ad creative, and funnel changes faster than any in-house team could on its own • Use AI and automation to compress cycle time by creating auto-pausing rules, LLM-generated creative variants, attribution scripts, and automated reporting • Spend roughly 20% of your time embedded in other Mechanism portfolio companies on time-boxed growth engagements • Codify what works into reusable playbooks, scripts, and automations that compound across the portfolio • Provide clear, written updates on results, learnings, and blockers on Mechanism’s standard cadence
