Job description

About Strix

We believe that software is the foundation of modern civilization, yet vulnerabilities threaten its integrity, security, and resilience. Strix is on a mission to solve security.

Strix builds autonomous AI penetration testing agents that think like attackers: discovering, validating, and helping fix real vulnerabilities across live applications, codebases, and infrastructure, continuously, not once a year. We are looking for strong technical people who want to work at the intersection of AI, security, and infrastructure.

About this role

We're seeking a Head of Growth to own how the world discovers Strix, building the engine that turns a product customers love into pipeline, from content and community to product-led and founder-led motions.

You're excited about this role because you will…

  • Own growth end-to-end: strategy, experiments, channels, and the numbers behind them

  • Build Strix's voice in the security community, content, launches, open source, events, and developer marketing

  • Design and optimize the funnel from first touch to booked demo to closed customer

  • Work directly with the founders to define positioning and shape the GTM playbook

  • Build the foundation (and eventually the team) for Strix's growth organization

Qualifications

  • 4+ years in growth, demand generation, or GTM roles at a B2B SaaS company, ideally security or developer tools

  • Track record of building pipeline from scratch in an early-stage environment

  • Strong writing and taste: you can craft a narrative technical audiences respect

  • Data-driven and hands-on: comfortable running experiments and building process where none exists

  • A tendency to leave things in a better way than you found them

What we offer

  • Competitive salary with meaningful equity

  • Health, vision, and dental insurance

  • Office lunch and dinner (when working from our New York office)
