Fintech startup, NYC, six days a week: they're making leveraged trading feel simple, and they need someone to figure out how to get more people in the door—fast.
Your job: run growth experiments like a scientist, but move like a startup. Social channels, referrals, community—whatever sticks, you double down. Whatever flops, you kill it and move on.
Day‑to‑day: sketch a hypothesis, launch a test, read the data, talk to the team, scale the winner. Repeat. Own it end‑to‑end.
Who fits: scrappy operator who's done growth before (marketing, user acquisition, doesn't matter where), writes clearly, thinks in experiments, and thrives in a small room full of smart people grinding.
The deal: $130‑165k base plus equity (0.1‑0.4%), in‑office grind, real ownership, and a shot to shape how a fintech company scales from the ground up.

Work Model: Onsite (6 days/week in office)
Industry: Financial Technology / Consumer Trading Platforms
Compensation: Base salary $130,000-$165,000 depending on experience, plus equity (0.1%-0.4%). Additional variable or revenue-share incentives may be available based on role scope and impact.
