Founding AI Native Growth Head
About BlockRun
BlockRun is the x402 micropayment gateway for AI agents. One gateway for LLM inference and data APIs — 41+ models across 7 providers, real-time data feeds, smart routing, USDC pay-per-call. No API keys. No subscriptions. Wallet = auth.
We process 1.1M+ API calls/month, serve developers in 50+ countries, and won the Circle USDC Agent Hackathon.
The Role
You will own developer acquisition and growth from the ground up. BlockRun is a self-serve API product — growth means getting more developers to build on BlockRun and keep using it.
This is not a marketing role that writes blog posts. This is a hands-on growth role where you run experiments, ship landing pages, write scripts to track funnels, and personally engage with developers in the communities where they hang out.
What You'll Do
- Developer acquisition: Find and convert developers in the OpenClaw, LangChain, CrewAI, and broader AI agent ecosystems
- Channel strategy: Run Twitter/X accounts, Reddit, Discord, Telegram — wherever developers are building agents
- Partnership integrations: Get BlockRun listed as a provider in AI frameworks, MCP server directories, and agent platforms
- Hackathon presence: Identify, sponsor, and participate in AI/crypto hackathons globally
- Content that converts: Technical tutorials, benchmark comparisons, cost-saving case studies — content developers actually read
- Data-driven iteration: Track API signups, first-call conversion, 7-day retention, and cost per acquired developer. Kill what doesn't work. Double down on what does
- Community cold start: Build developer community with growth as the objective, not vanity metrics
You Should Be
- AI native: You use AI agents daily. You've built with OpenClaw, Cursor, Claude Code, or similar tools. You understand the developer workflow
- Growth-minded: You think in funnels, not followers. You've grown a developer product before, or you've grown something from near-zero and can prove it
- Technical enough: You can read API docs, write a curl command, understand what a router does. You don't need to be a senior engineer, but you can't be afraid of a terminal
- Self-directed: We're a small team. Nobody will tell you what to do on Monday morning. You figure out the highest-leverage action and do it
- Online-native: You know how developer communities work on Twitter, Reddit, Discord, HN. You've built an audience or grown one for a product
Nice to Have
- Experience in AI or crypto/web3 developer ecosystem
- Understanding of x402, USDC, or stablecoin payments
- Track record of growing an open-source project's adoption
- Multiple languages (we serve 50+ countries, largest markets: Nigeria, India, Vietnam)
Compensation
Competitive. Equity included. Revenue-positive. All AI tools covered.
