### Run Growth Experiments
- Design and execute experiments to increase lead generation across channels
- Test hypotheses, measure results, and report findings to the team
- Double down on what works and build compounding growth loops

### Build Systems

- Own the marketing-to-sales-to-CSM handoff: build seamless flows so contacts move through our pipeline without friction
- Set up and manage the tools, automations, and analytics infrastructure that power our growth engine

### Take Ownership
- Operate on a high-agency basis. If you see an opportunity or a problem, you take action instead of waiting for permission.
- Own results and entire areas of the company, not just tasks.

### Be AI-Native
- Built an end-to-end project in Claude Code (or similar) that you're comfortable demo'ing
- Use AI tools daily to move faster, think more clearly, and multiply your output
- Be a power user of the AthenaHQ platform itself, providing daily product feedback to our product team

## What We're Looking For
- Strong critical thinking. Form your own hypotheses about markets and channels.
- Systems-oriented mindset. Think in loops, leverage, and compounding.

- Clear communication.
