[Hiring] Growth Product Marketer @MarcoPolo Learning

Role Description

Marco Polo Learning is building a self-purchase, subscription website and end-to-end buying experience for individual customers (a "bottom-up" growth motion, distinct from our top-down sales team). We're looking for someone who sits between product design and marketing: someone who can design the look, flow, and feel of the purchase experience, and who deeply understands how subscription businesses are built and activated.

• Design the self-purchase subscription experience: landing pages, sign-up, trial, and checkout — the layout, flow, and presentation of pricing/packaging.
• Design the activation and onboarding sequence: what a new user sees, is told, and is prompted to do after signing up, so they reach their first "aha" moment and convert to paid.
• Own the copy and messaging strategy across the funnel (emails, in-app messaging, landing pages) — writing it or directing whoever does.
• Partner with an engineering/automation resource and/or AI tools to get the designed funnel actually built and wired up.
• Bring a proven subscription business background — pricing, activation, churn, and growth-loop thinking.
• Define what to test (design variations, pricing, onboarding steps, messaging) and read the results to keep improving conversion and activation.
• Track and report on subscription funnel metrics: sign-ups, activation rate, trial-to-paid conversion, and early retention.

What This Role Is Not:

• Not primarily an engineering or coding role — implementation support is available via AI tools and an engineering partner.
• Not a purely visual/UI design role — this role needs design paired with subscription business and marketing judgment.
• Not a pure automations/ops role — this hire owns funnel design and marketing strategy, and directs engineering/AI resources for execution.

Qualifications

• Proven experience designing and/or growing a subscription or self-serve SaaS/consumer product.
• Product design skills — able to design clean, conversion-minded web and email experiences (wireframes/mockups at minimum).
• Strong grasp of subscription business fundamentals: activation, trial-to-paid conversion, churn/retention, pricing and packaging.
• Hands-on growth marketing experience: email/lifecycle marketing, landing page strategy, basic analytics and experimentation.
• Comfortable directing a technical build (via AI tools or a partner engineer) even if not writing the code personally.
• Hands-on experience working with AI coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) to prototype or ship parts of the funnel directly.
• Strong written English for copywriting and stakeholder communication with a US-based team.
• Self-directed: able to ask the right questions, propose a plan, and execute with minimal day-to-day oversight.

Requirements

• Experience in EdTech or a subscription product sold to consumers/parents.
• Familiarity with HubSpot, N8N, ClickUp, or similar tools already in use at Marco Polo.
• Enough technical/no-code fluency (Webflow, AI website builders) to prototype ideas quickly.

Engagement Details

• Location: Bangalore-based (remote)
• Engagement type: Contract to start, with potential to expand
• Reports to: Founder / Leadership team
• Works closely with: An engineering and automation team members who support the technical build
