About Blaze

We're building the world's first agentic marketer to rewrite the rules of who gets to win in business. Our mission is to level the playing field for every team of one—so your success is determined by your courage, creativity, and commitment, not your existing wealth, power, or connections.

Blaze Autopilot is the first AI that actually does marketing for you. It doesn’t just generate ideas—it runs campaigns end-to-end. From strategy to content creation to posting across every major channel, Autopilot acts like a full-time marketer on your team, learning and improving every week.

Blaze serves tens of thousands of small businesses. But we’re just getting started on our journey to a million customers and beyond.

That's where you come in: we're hiring a sharp and relentless Paid Marketing Manager to own and scale our paid growth efforts — driving measurable growth through paid channels, running data-backed experiments, and optimizing campaigns for efficiency and impact.

About the role

As a Performance Marketer at Blaze, you’ll own our paid channels end-to-end, from strategy to execution to reporting. Your work will directly drive growth, and you’ll have the freedom to experiment, test fast, and double down on what works.

This role blends creativity with analytical rigor, balancing hands-on execution with strategic experimentation. If you thrive in a scrappy, high-growth environment and love building and scaling growth, this is the role for you.

Specifically, you will:

• Run and optimize campaigns across Google, Meta, and other channels

• Own targeting, budgets, and creative testing with hyper focus on ROI

• Roll up your sleeves to write copy, test new formats, and dig into data

• Experiment with new channels and ideas to find untapped growth opportunities

• Share insights with the team and turn performance data into action

• Balance quick wins with long-term growth bets, helping shape our growth strategy

About you

At Blaze, how we work is as important as what we build. We're on a mission to create something ambitious, and our culture is central to that aim.

We move fast, own our work, and get things done. This is a high-ownership, high-growth environment where feedback fuels progress. If you're ambitious, proactive, and driven to build something meaningful, you’ll thrive here.

We love to hire people who:

1. Care deeply about their work. You can't help but to be all in, and you're ready to swing big to make things happen, no matter what it takes!

2. Are amazingly competent. You move fast, crush complexity, master the unknown, and power through anything.

3. Are hyper structured thinkers and communicators. You’re often right, crave feedback, and write like a pro → clear, data-driven, and to the point.

4. Move faster than anyone they know. You set bold timelines, crush them, and move faster than anyone - never letting process slow you down.

5. Have professional maturity. You stay calm, assume good intent, and keep work fun - while building strong, easy relationships.

Experiences that set you apart:

• 4+ years of growth marketing or performance marketing experience at a high-growth startup managing paid ad campaigns

• Managed $3M+ in annual paid media spend, scaling monthly budgets from $100k to $500k+ while maintaining or improving efficiency metrics

• Deep expertise running full-funnel campaigns on Google Ads (Search, Performance Max) and Meta (Advantage+) with proven ROAS improvements at scale

• Track record of running 10+ experiments per month and driving step-change results through systematic creative, targeting, and landing page tests

Skills that make you extraordinary:

• Data-driven experimentation: you frame clear hypotheses, ship tests fast, and turn performance insights into action without waiting for perfect data

• Creative instincts meet analytical rigor: you write compelling ad copy, map messaging to customer awareness stages, and know how to test creative systematically

• Extreme ownership of outcomes: you make smart bets, move fast, iterate ruthlessly, and communicate insights clearly and concisely

• Comfortable in ambiguity: you thrive as a one-person army while building systems for scale, comfortable building the plane while flying it

Our Team

At Blaze, we’re looking for structured thinkers full of passion, ambition, and kindness. We’d love for you apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match the job description.

At Blaze, we welcome people of diverse backgrounds and perspectives who aren’t afraid to challenge the status quo. Join us.

Our Commitment to You

We’re building a space where you can do exceptional work for decades. We commit to fostering a culture where work feels joyful, rewarding, and sustainable—a place where people are valued not just for what they do, but for who they are.

What you'll get from us:

• Collective support—and mentorship from your manager—in achieving major wins

• Encouragement to take risks, try new things, and be creative with your work

• Opportunities to exchange and engage in feedback

• Continual chances to stretch yourself and raise your own bar
