Are you looking to join an early-stage fintech company and build its marketing function from the ground up, 100% remotely?
We are looking for an exceptional Head of Marketing to lead the marketing strategy for an early-stage fintech/crypto company building modern financial products for Latin America.
This is a highly senior leadership role for someone with a long and proven track record building and scaling marketing organizations, launching products and brands from 0 to 1, and driving measurable growth in startup environments.
The ideal candidate is a highly autonomous, hands-on marketing leader who can define strategy, build the team, establish the operating model, and execute without relying on a large existing structure.
This person should be comfortable working directly with founders, operating in ambiguity, and taking full ownership of marketing from an early, pre-launch stage.
Location: New York, USA strongly preferred.
Candidates must be based in the United States.
The role is 100% remote. Full-time.
ALL RESUMES MUST BE SUBMITTED IN ENGLISH
Salary range: $8,000–$12,000 USD per month, depending on experience and seniority.

- Own and define the company’s overall marketing strategy from pre-launch through growth.
- Build the marketing function from the ground up, including processes, channels, metrics, team structure, and operating cadence.
- Develop positioning, messaging, brand strategy, and go-to-market plans for a fintech/crypto product targeting Latin America.
- Lead customer acquisition strategy across paid, organic, partnerships, content, lifecycle, community, and other relevant channels.

- Build and lead a high-performing marketing team while remaining hands-on in execution.
- Work closely with the founders, Product, Business Development, and other teams to translate customer and market insights into growth initiatives.
- Own product launch strategy and subsequent growth experimentation.
- Develop repeatable growth systems and processes that can scale as the company grows.
- Identify new market opportunities and growth channels across the U.S. and Latin America.
- Use data and experimentation to continuously improve acquisition, positioning, conversion, and retention.
- Leverage AI and automation to increase marketing productivity, speed, research capabilities, and execution efficiency.
- Operate independently in a fast-moving environment where priorities and requirements may evolve quickly.

- 10+ years of progressive marketing experience, with significant senior leadership responsibility.
- Current or recent experience as a Head of Marketing, VP Marketing, CMO, Growth Leader, or equivalent senior marketing executive.

- Experience building and developing marketing teams from the ground up.
- Strong record of measurable business results, including examples tied to revenue growth, user acquisition, CAC, conversion, pipeline, activation, retention, or market expansion.

- Strong experience working with founders and executive leadership in high-ownership environments.
- Highly autonomous, proactive, and comfortable working with ambiguity.
- Strong strategic thinking combined with strong execution capabilities.
- Excellent communication, leadership, and stakeholder-management skills.
