About Us

Our mission is to raise AGI with the richness of human intelligence — curious, witty, imaginative, and full of unexpected brilliance.

Surge was founded by engineers and researchers who dreamed of building the next generation AI. We're building a platform that powers the most powerful models in the world in partnership with companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Google.

At Surge, we believe the path to AGI isn't just about scaling compute—it's about embracing the unlimited ceiling of human intelligence and creativity in the data that shapes these systems. Our platform combines elite human expertise with cutting-edge tools for scalable oversight, from building rich RL environments to conducting rigorous evaluations that go beyond benchmarks. We've run a profitable business from day one without raising venture funding.

The Role

We’re hiring a Growth Marketer to drive the global contributor growth strategy- owning acquisition, activation, and lifecycle marketing. You’ll set the strategy, build the marketing engine, and scale multi-channel programs that bring high quality contributors to the Surge platform. This is a cross-functional role partnering closely with other Marketing leaders, Product, Ops, and Execs.

What You’ll Do

• Build scalable acquisition frameworks across geographies and contributor profiles; while defining the growth roadmap, targets, and budget to guide investment in international markets.
• Architect and scale a multi-channel international marketing engine (paid search, social, referral, partnerships) while continuously evaluating and testing emerging channels.
• Orchestrate full-funnel journeys across acquisition, onboarding, retention, and reactivation; while implementing rigorous experimentation for areas of improvement.
• Balance growth with contributor quality embedding rigorous benchmarks without slowing down recruitment.

Successful Candidates Have

• Demonstrated repeat success in performance marketing, with a focus on paid acquisition and targeted 1:1 outreach.
• A proven track record of managing large budgets across multiple advertising channels.
• Strong analytical skills, with a data-driven mindset for decision-making.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively across teams.
• Are independent operators who lean into proactive ownership and are comfortable with ambiguity.
• A commitment to making the next generation of AI models safer and more useful.

Nice to Have

• Past experience with international and/or gig-work recruitment.
