Growth Manager

Full-time On-site (Bengaluru) Series A 27-member team ?1535 LPA

A note from Pratyush, CEO:

AI is fundamentally wiser than us today in 90%+ jobs. Soon it will be wiser than us in 99.9%+ jobs. What stops us from fully utilising its potential is our inability to feed it the right context.

If we succeed, every brilliant context whether from a designer, oncologist, or 10-year-old gets captured and acted on. We need a partner who will obsess over growth with us and make sure nothing mission-critical slips between the cracks.

• Full-time IC role (not remote)

About us

Merlin

Your mission

Help Merlin and Thine grow fast and sustainably. You'll scale what's working (influencer engine, Meta ads, UGC, SEO) and find what's next. You thrive at the intersection of creativity, numbers, and relentless execution.

You'll own:

• Creator engine:

  Find A-list talent, craft briefs, automate outreach, scale daily reach to millions.

• Paid growth:

  Plan, run, and optimize campaigns.

• Lifecycle & retention:

  Design journeys, emails, nudges that convert users to power users.

• Product-led growth:

  Spot viral loops and work with engineers to ship them.

• Analytics:

  Build dashboards and models, catch anomalies early, fix them fast.

What we're looking for

• Pedigree:

  Tier-1 degree or Tier-1 startup/agency experience.

• Proof:

  A track record that speaks louder than credentials.

• Drive:

  Can hustle, lead interns/contractors, and execute independently.

• Creative + Analytical:

  Equally strong at scripting ideas and modeling ROAS.

• Mindset:

  First-principles thinker with bias for action and optimism.

Why you'll love it here

• Own Merlin's growth engine end to end.
• Work at the frontier of AI and human context.
• Competitive pay (?1535 LPA + bonuses).
• Direct exposure to leadership and decision-making.
• Learn fast, experiment faster.
• Benefits: Health cover, flexible PTO, and a culture that actually values people.

Why you might pass:

If you prefer rigid lanes, remote work, or consensus-driven setups this won't fit. We move fast, take big bets, and stay irrationally optimistic about the future of AGI.
