Job description

Moonshot is the “Robinhood for DeFi”—an iOS and Android app that lets anyone trade cryptocurrencies on-chain through a user-friendly interface.

Since our launch in July 2024, we’ve attracted 2M+ users.

Our mission: Make moonshots possible for everyone.

Our vision: Make a world where life-changing financial outcomes are within everyone's reach.

Everyone on our team is both a decision-maker and an implementer—united by a sense of urgency and driven by the conviction that our work can transform global finance. If you thrive on curiosity, welcome tough challenges, and aspire to leave a meaningful mark on the world, Moonshot is the place for you. You’ll run toward the hardest problems alongside high-caliber teammates who consistently push each other to excel and who share your dedication to shaping the future of decentralized finance. This role is full-time, preferably located in NYC. Open to remote for the right candidate. The Opportunity

We're looking for a Growth Lead to build and run growth at Moonshot from the ground up: strategy, content, paid channels, and the team underneath it all. This is a hands-on, builder role, not a manage-an-agency-and-review-decks job. You'll be in the weeds on campaigns and content while building out the function as we scale.

What You'll Do

  • Own growth strategy end-to-end: set the roadmap for user acquisition and engagement, and own the numbers behind it
  • Run paid acquisition across Meta, Google Ads, TikTok Ads, X Ads, and other platforms as they become relevant
  • Drive organic and creator-led growth through UGC and clipping strategies, sourcing, briefing, and scaling content that performs
  • Generate and test ideas constantly; you're not waiting for a brief, you're bringing the brief
  • Build and lead the team as we scale: hire, onboard, and manage the growth marketers and specialists you need
  • Report on and iterate against performance: kill what doesn't work, scale what does, fast

What We Look For in You

  • A few years of experience scaling a consumer product, as a growth hacker/marketer inside a consumer app (social, fintech, gaming), or at an agency running growth for products like these
  • Hands-on channel experience with UGC, clipping/content strategies, and paid social/search
  • A scrappy, high-energy operator mindset; you're hungry, hands-on, and thrive building the playbook as you go, not running someone else's
  • Comfort with ambiguity and pace; you don't need a fully mapped org or process to start moving

Nice to Haves

  • Crypto experience, as a retail trader or through work at a crypto company
  • Understanding of trader psychology, incentives, and habit loops

Compensation & Package

  • Competitive salary
  • Early Equity opportunities
  • 5% 401(k) Match
  • Health benefits (75% premium coverage) + $150,000 in life insurance coverage
  • $1,000 one time office set up stipend
  • Flexible PTO

Why work at Moonshot

  • Mission-Driven: A clear, ambitious goal to make decentralized finance accessible to everyone.
  • High Growth & Impact: Rapid user and revenue growth means engineers tackle fascinating scaling challenges and see their work reach millions.
  • Ownership & Autonomy: Engineers are trusted to design and ship features end-to-end; ideas and initiative are highly valued.
  • Competitive Compensation: Top-of-market salary ($200k–$250k for founding engineer roles), meaningful equity, 401(k) with 5% match, and benefits including medical, dental, vision, and life insurance.
  • Work Environment: Remote-friendly within the US and Canada, with an option for in-person/hybrid in Miami and relocation assistance. Unlimited PTO, flexible hours, and a collaborative team culture.
  • Tech Stack: Modern stack (Flutter, Go, Postgres, Redis, Kubernetes, Solana) – ideal for engineers passionate about Web3 and consumer fintech. web3.career
