About the Role

About the Team

The GTM Strategy & Growth team drives the growth and evolution of our B2B business across products, customer segments, and routes to market. We partner closely with Product, Sales, Success, Data Science, Finance, and Marketing to define and execute go-to-market strategies for new product launches, commercialization models, customer growth initiatives, and market expansion opportunities.

Our work sits at the intersection of product strategy, growth, and operations — shaping how we bring products to market, how we measure success, and how we scale adoption across customer segments. We operate across both strategic and highly operational domains, from defining long-term growth bets and commercial strategy to building launch plans, tracking performance, and driving cross-functional execution across the business.

About the Role

We’re looking for an exceptional leader to join our GTM Strategy & Growth team focused on driving go-to-market strategy for our Codex business. This role is ideal for someone who combines strong product intuition with thoughtful and nuanced GTM strategy, and who can flex seamlessly between high-level strategic thinking and operational execution.

You’ll play a central role in shaping how new Codex products and platform capabilities are commercialized and scaled. This includes defining growth strategies, customer segmentation approaches, launch success metrics, and commercialization models in close partnership with Product, Pricing, Data Science, Finance, Sales, and Customer Success.

You should be highly analytical, deeply comfortable with technical products and developer businesses, and experienced navigating complex cross-functional environments. The ideal candidate understands how GTM organizations operate at scale and can translate customer, product, and market insights into actionable growth strategies.

This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.
