About the role

Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

Since public launch, Emergent has reached  $50M ARR in 7 months5M+ users across 190+ countries  have built  6M+ applications  on Emergent. We’ve raised  $100M , backed by  Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

We’re solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

We’re hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

What You’ll Do

  • Own end-to-end performance marketing across Meta Ads and Google Ads for both app and web campaigns.
  • Drive profitable growth through deep analysis of CAC, ROAS, contribution margins, and cohort performance.
  • Build and maintain performance dashboards, forecasts, and budget allocation models.
  • Leverage LLMs and vibe coding to automate reporting and anomaly detection.
  • Rapidly analyze search terms, keywords, and creative performance using data-driven methods.
  • Collaborate closely with Product, Creative, and Finance teams to align ad spends with margins and business outcomes.
  • Manage and lead a team of performance marketing specialists to consistently raise the bar on execution and results.
  • Explore DSP and programmatic channels as an additional growth lever.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3–5 years of experience in performance marketing, preferably in ecommerce, D2C, or marketplace businesses.
  • Extremely strong math and analytical skills with a numbers-first mindset.
  • Hands-on experience managing Meta Ads and Google Ads at scale.
  • Proven ability to increase spend while maintaining or improving efficiency.
  • Experience working with MMPs such as Appsflyer or Branch.
  • High comfort with Excel or Google Sheets; SQL or Python is a plus.
  • Clear, structured thinker who can explain complex numbers to non-analytical teams.
  • Strong ownership mindset with the ability to operate independently in fast-paced environments.

Why Join Us?

  • High ownership and high impact role with direct influence on revenue and profitability.
  • Opportunity to build scalable performance systems, not just run ad campaigns.
  • Work with a high-caliber, maker-first team building at the frontier of AI.
  • Competitive compensation and strong growth opportunities.

Let’s build the future of software together. 🚀
