About the Role

We're looking for a Head of Growth with a passion for creative AI and user empowerment to help us shape the future of video creation. You’ll turn first-time visitors into lifelong Pika creators, owning the growth levers that drive activation, retention, and monetization. Through bold experimentation, rapid iteration, and hands-on product changes, you’ll directly influence how millions discover, create, and stay inspired with Pika.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the entire growth journey: from acquisition and activation to crafting retention loops and creative, user-centric monetization paths.
  • Conceptualize, launch, and analyze rapid-fire experiments (A/B tests, feature flags) with an eye toward out-of-the-box creative impact.
  • Build and champion a deep understanding of our users—how they create, what motivates them, and how our creative AI can unlock their potential.
  • Collaborate daily with world-class engineering, design, marketing, and data teams to deliver bold, high-impact growth initiatives.
  • Set up and evolve the metrics and dashboards that reveal what truly powers user creativity—double down on what works, swiftly sunset what doesn’t.

What We’re Looking For

  • 2–5 years in product management or growth, ideally at a consumer or PLG company where experimentation is in your DNA.
  • Relentlessly analytical: fluent in SQL and analytics tools, with a strong bias for insights that fuel creative product direction.
  • Fast to ship, fast to learn: you thrive on velocity, creative risk-taking, and rapidly learning from real-world results.
  • Deep product intuition: you know how to balance ambitious near-term growth bets with sustaining long-term creative ecosystems.
  • Crystal-clear communicator: you can champion a bold new idea—or pivot away from one—fast and persuasively.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with consumer subscription, freemium, or creator monetization models.
  • Familiarity with creative AI, generative media products, or creator-economy platforms.
  • Background at an early-stage or hypergrowth startup where creativity and speed rule.

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary in the thriving creative AI space
  • Equity in a high-growth startup shaping the landscape of generative creativity
  • Comprehensive health benefits, monthly stipends, company retreats
  • A collaborative office culture in Palo Alto—where we build, iterate, and celebrate creativity together

About Pika
