About the Role

As a Growth Engineer, you will own how aion attracts, engages, and activates developers, founders, and AI builders at scale. This is a marketing- and community-first role that sits at the intersection of events, developer advocacy, content, and growth experimentation.

You will design and run aion’s community and events engine—from Bay Area meetups and flagship conferences to online workshops, Discord conversations, and founder-led salons (e.g., The AI Summit Afterparty by aion). Your work directly drives awareness, product adoption, and inbound pipeline.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in zero-to-one environments, loves being customer-facing, and wants full ownership over how a category-defining AI platform shows up in the world.

About aion

aion is the world’s first and only AI infrastructure research lab: a full-stack solution for building, fine-tuning, and deploying AI at scale. Whether you're a startup founder, enterprise team, or independent developer, aion gives you everything you need to go from concept to production in one seamless platform.

By abstracting away infrastructure complexity, aion unifies compute orchestration, training workflows, data pipelines, model versioning, and deployment into a single, streamlined experience. No more fragmented stacks or cloud lock-in, just fast, scalable, and accessible AI infrastructure.

Led by serial entrepreneurs Jayden Watson and Christian Angermayer, aion is well-funded by top-tier VCs and strategic partners. Headquartered in the U.K., we operate globally with core teams in London, SF, and NYC.

What You’ll DoCommunity & Growth Strategy
  • Events playbook: Define and execute aion’s community and events strategy aligned with GTM goals
  • Growth loops: Build repeatable growth engines through events, content, referrals, and community programs (hackathons, Builder Nights, AI dinners, workshops)
  • Ambassadors: Identify, activate, and nurture power users, early champions, and community leaders
Events
  • End-to-end execution: Own in-person and virtual events: concept, budget, speakers, promotion, logistics, and follow-up
  • Bay Area presence: Run consistent, high-quality events across SF/Bay Area
  • Community platforms: Own and grow Discord/Slack/GitHub Discussions via AMAs, launches, demos, and webinars
Content & Messaging
  • Lightweight content: Event copy, community posts, newsletters, recaps, social threads
  • Storytelling: Surface community-driven insights in collaboration with Product and Marketing
  • Analytics: Track engagement, activation, and community-driven pipeline

Requirements
  • 3–5+ years in Growth, Community, Events, or Marketing, ideally at an early-stage startup
  • Strong event operations instincts: you are extremely detail-oriented (invite lists, Wi-Fi, flow, swag)
  • AI-literate: comfortable discussing training vs. inference with developers
  • Social-native (AI Twitter / viral Linkedin intuition)
  • Scrappy, autonomous, and calm under pressure
  • London, NY or Bay Area-based or willing to travel regularly for events

Benefits
  • Join the ground floor of a mission-driven AI startup revolutionizing compute infrastructure.
  • Work with a high-caliber, globally distributed team backed by major VCs.
  • Competitive compensation and benefits.
  • Fast-paced, flexible work environment with room for ownership and impact.
  • Hybrid model: 3 days in-office, 2 days remote with flexibility to work remotely for part of the year.
