Performance Marketing Specialist

Location: Bengaluru — in-office, 5 days a week Experience: 1–2 years Team: Marketing Reports to: Head of Product About Sagepilot

Sagepilot builds AI employees for consumer brands — agents that run sales, support, marketing, and operations inside the systems companies already use. Plum, RedTape, Newme, Boldfit, Treebo, Ugaoo and Aachho run their customer experience on us. One customer automates 60,000 tickets a month. Another hit 94% AI resolution through a 12x sale surge.

We're expanding beyond India into APAC and the US. This role owns the paid engine that gets us in front of those buyers. The role

Are you a performance maketer with 1-2 years experience? You will own Sagepilot's paid acquisition budget end to end — LinkedIn, Google, and paid social — across APAC and US markets and any new paid channel worth testing" so we aren't boxed into the known ones. You set the strategy, run the campaigns, control the spend, and answer for the MQL number.

You will have experienced founders, product and marketing specialists to guide you but you will be the founding performance marketer. You'll have real budget authority and unusually short feedback loops, and you'll be the person in the room who knows what a qualified lead actually costs us. What you'll own

Full-funnel paid campaigns across LinkedIn Ads, Google Ads (Search, PMax, YouTube), and paid social — from ICP targeting through creative briefs to landing page conversion

New channel discovery identify, pilot and scale paid channels we're not on yet (e.g. Meta, Reddit, X, programmatic/display, native, review sites like G2/Capterra, newsletter and podcast sponsorships, regional APAC platforms,



affiliate)." Owning the known channels well is the baseline; finding the next one is the real upside.

Budget allocation and pacing across geographies and channels, with weekly reallocation based on what's working The MQL pipeline — volume, quality, and cost. You'll own CPL, MQL→SQL conversion, and pipeline contribution as your primary metrics

Market-specific strategy for APAC and US — messaging, bidding, and creative that reflect how buyers in each region actually evaluate AI tooling

Landing pages and conversion testing in partnership with design and web

Measurement and attribution — clean tracking, honest reporting, and a weekly view leadership can trust

Rapid experimentation — recent channels, audiences, and creative angles tested on short cycles, killed fast when they don't work What we're looking for

Must-haves

1–2 years running performance marketing at a SaaS or AI-native startup

Demonstrated ownership of paid budgets on LinkedIn Ads and Google Ads — you've built campaigns from scratch, not just optimized someone else's + Has launched a paid channel from zero

Proven track record generating MQLs in APAC and/or US markets for a B2B product

Fluency with the numbers: CPL, CAC, MQL→SQL rates, blended pipeline efficiency. You should be able to defend a spend decision with data

Hands-on with GA4, campaign managers, and at least one CRM or marketing automation stack





Sharp copy instincts and the ability to brief creative that converts to a technical buyer

Nice-to-haves

SEO/SEM fundamentals — organic and paid working together rather than in separate silos

Experience with community-led growth or B2B events and field marketing

Familiarity with the D2C, e-commerce, or CX tooling landscape

Comfort with AI tools in your own workflow — we build them, we expect you to use them What tells us you'll do well here

You get impatient with campaigns that have been running unchanged for two weeks. You'd rather ship five experiments and kill three than perfect one. You read your own dashboards before someone asks. And when a channel isn't working, you say so early instead of defending it. Why this role

Real ownership at year two. You run the budget. Most people wait five years for that.

A product that demos itself. Our customers publish their numbers. You'll never be short of proof.

Two markets, one seat. Building demand generation across APAC and the US at this stage is a rare line on a CV.

Speed. Decisions happen in days. So do launches. Hiring process

AI screening round — a conversation with one of our own AI agents, covering your background and how you think about paid acquisition. In-person whiteboarding with the founding team — at our Bengaluru office. You'll work through live problems: budget allocation across markets, a channel that's underperforming, an ICP you've never sold to. No take-home, no rehearsed presentation. Just the thinking.
