[Hiring] Growth & User Operations for an early-stage EdTech startup
I’m currently building an early-stage product in the education and professional learning space, and we’re getting close to the point where we need to start putting it in front of real users.
A few of the people currently working with me were actually found through Reddit, and I’ve been quite happy with how that turned out, so I thought I’d try Reddit again for this role.
What I need help with:
I’m looking for someone who can help me find and recruit our first real users and testers.
This isn’t really about running big ad campaigns or making social media posts.
It’s more hands-on:
finding relevant communities and potential users
reaching out to people who may be interested
helping recruit our first group of testers
following up with them
collecting feedback
researching trainers, creators and potential partners
trying different messages and seeing what actually works
keeping basic track of outreach and results
You’ll be working directly with me and alongside a small international team working across product, technology and AI.
What I’m looking for:
You don’t need years of marketing experience.
What matters more is that you’re:
resourceful, reliable, comfortable talking to people online
willing to reach out and follow up
genuinely interested in startups, growth, EdTech, customer research or operations
Most importantly, able to figure things out without needing detailed instructions for everything
If you’ve done outreach, community work, sales, marketing, startup projects or customer research before, that’s useful, but it’s not essential.
What you’ll get:
This is a very early-stage project, so you’ll get hands-on exposure to what actually happens when a product goes from “we built something” to “will real people actually use this?”
You’ll get experience with:
launching an early-stage product
finding the first users
customer discovery
startup growth
working with an international team
seeing how product, AI, technology and user feedback come together
My budget depends heavily on your experience and our synergy anywhere around 15k INR although I’m flexible. As we get more comfortable working together and the projects start coming to life, we can definitely talk about adjusting that. I’m not interested in tracking your every minute; I care about making steady progress.
It’s probably best suited to someone who values practical startup experience, rather than someone looking for conventional agency.
Interested?
