Hiring Freelance GTM Engineer for Civic Tech Startup to Build and Scale Consumer Acquisition
Hey all! I'm new here, my name is Kyle and I'm working on a consumer politics / civic tech startup — a free nonpartisan app where voters rate their politicians on breaking news. I'm hiring a freelance GTM Engineer to build and scale our consumer acquisition engine. Paid retainer, ~10h/week, remote. First GTM hire, reporting directly to me, the founder. I'm a growth hacker of 10 years, now budding GTM Engineer and Founder. Looking for someone who has experience that I can work closely with. This is not a B2B role. This is a consumer acquisition role. What you'll do
Build and optimize paid acquisition campaigns across Meta, Google, and emerging channels
Set up SEO infrastructure and content pipelines for organic growth
Design and ship lifecycle email/push sequences (onboarding, retention, re-engagement)
Build and maintain organic social media listening and posting automations
Work in our marketing tools codebase — optimize, debug, and extend automations for user acquisition at scale
Requirements
You've built consumer acquisition systems, not just managed dashboards
Comfortable in a codebase — can read, optimize, and ship code (Python, JS, or AI-assisted)
Hands-on experience with paid media, SEO, and lifecycle marketing
You understand webapp conversion funnels from impression to activated user
US timezone preferred
Bonus
Experience with civic tech, news apps, or mission-driven consumer products
Familiarity with PostHog, Supabase, or modern analytics stacks
Interested? DM me with your LinkedIn and a quick example of an acquisition system you've built.
