What are the responsibilities and job description for the head of growth position at Wordware Inc?
what is wordware?
we're building the all-in-one platform for AI development.
here's what that actually means :
the core : a programming language for building just AI assembly language for the new reasoning unit (LLM) is English, so let's put it front and centre and incorporate best concepts from software engineering :
- conditional statements
- loops
- function calling functions (aka in fancy language multi-agent communication) - this is more difficult than it seems because of the needed type system (see below)
- type system (especially important for interacting with multimodal LLMs where one output might have to be transformed to be passed on forward to the next step of the flow which might incorporate an LLM which can only interact with specific modalities)
- easy linking with Tools (custom or prebuilt and ready to use : speech-to-text, image generation, ElevenLabs, research and many more
the ide : where the magic happens like notion met vscode and had a baby. build and test AI flows instantly, see results in real-time, iterate fast.
deployment : choose your flavor
plug your AI engine straight into your product
automate your work with triggers and actions
deploy as public / private web apps
head of growth @ wordware
not necessarily a software engineer, but you've written code before and understand how things work under the hood. maybe you still dabble in frontend or have side projects. the point is : you need to deeply get our product and our users. implementing your simple ideas into main product and doing experiments in this way, would make your and my lives easier.
You will also be selling
being real : this is a hard role to fill. i (Filip) am currently heading growth and will be opportunistic about finding the right person.
you need to be able to say in two sentences something so impressive it will make me want to talk to you immediately. if that doesn't come to mind, don't apply.
the actual challenge : we have 350k users and are defining a new category (natural language ai development). we need someone who can turn "building AI with plain english" into a movement. someone who's already done something similar and knows exactly how to take "interesting tool" to "holy shit, this is the future."
the bigger picture : we're not just talking to traditional developers. we're reaching the next 500 million people who will be "coding" with plain english - lawyers, designers, product managers, founders, and domain experts of all kinds. this means threading an impossible needle : deep enough for engineers, accessible enough for everyone else, and compelling enough to show both groups why this matters.
success of your role
you probably :
technical requirements (need some, not all) :
real talk :
ps : we're backed by spark capital, felicis, and y combinator ($30m seed - biggest out of YC round) but we still work like a seed startup. and yes, the office will have a sauna and be 30m from the sea
