About Search Atlas

Search Atlas is an agentic marketing platform. We combine SEO, content, site management and AI automation into one system.

• $30M+ ARR, 215 employees, thousands of active customers

• Category creators defining “agentic marketing” as the next step beyond traditional marketing automation

• Bootstrapped to profitability and raising our first institutional round

• Founder led, with strong personal brands and a thriving community

The Opportunity

Our product has outpaced our marketing. We need a hands-on leader who runs marketing the way we sell it: with AI agents doing real work.

You’ll set the strategy, own marketing’s numbers, and report directly to our CEO. You’ll also build the agents and automations that let a lean team do the work of a much bigger one.

This is a player coach role. You’ll set direction and you’ll also write, build and ship. If you’re looking for a purely managerial seat, this isn’t it.

What You'll Do

Build the Agentic Marketing Stack

• Build AI agents and automations that do real marketing work: ads, reporting, content and lifecycle.

• Name an owner for each one and track what it saves or earns.

• Scale creative production with a lean, AI augmented team.

• Use our own platform as your first testing ground.

Own Marketing Operations and Revenue

• Own the marketing strategy and set priorities across growth, paid, affiliate, lifecycle, web, content and product marketing.

• Define marketing OKRs and report results to the CEO on a steady cadence.

• Own CAC, payback, trial volume and blended efficiency.

• Get hands-on with campaigns, messaging and creative when the work calls for it.

• Turn the founders’ instincts into plans that actually ship.

• Keep measurement honest across GA4, HubSpot, Stripe and the ad platforms.

Run the Conversion and Lifecycle Engine

• Lead the CRO program: test backlog, priorities and results.

• Work with product and engineering to improve registration, onboarding and checkout.

• Own lifecycle strategy and data accuracy between the app and HubSpot: trial, win-back and upsell flows.

Shape the Category Story

• Help build the narrative and vocabulary that make “agentic marketing” a term the industry ties to Search Atlas.

• Run our point of view engine: original research, reports and thought leadership.

• Keep the brand story consistent across web, social, PR and every channel.

Lead the Team

• Set clear priorities, hold people accountable and give regular feedback.

• Hire for open roles and make the call when someone isn’t working out.
