Description

Electric Air is building a modern home climate company.

We install heat pumps across the Bay Area and have developed our own heat pump product platform, Redwood, designed around simpler retrofits, thoughtful design, and a better homeowner experience.

Electric Air combines:

  • real-world HVAC operations

  • product development

  • software and technology

  • design and branding

  • customer experience

We’re growing quickly and looking for a Founding Growth & Brand Lead to help build the leading heat pump brand in the Bay Area.

This is a highly hands-on role for someone who combines:

  • strong growth instincts

  • excellent creative judgment

  • operational intensity

  • fast execution

  • deep curiosity about customers

You should be equally comfortable:

  • launching a Meta campaign

  • giving feedback on a landing page

  • coordinating a video shoot

  • improving attribution

  • organizing a homeowner event

  • reviewing install photos for quality and consistency

This is not a traditional corporate marketing role. We are looking for a builder.

What You’ll Own

Growth & Acquisition

  • Manage and improve paid acquisition across Google, Meta, LSA, and other channels

  • Improve landing pages, conversion funnels, and attribution

  • Develop experiments to improve lead quality and customer acquisition cost

  • Work closely with leadership to identify growth opportunities and bottlenecks

Creative & Brand

  • Source and manage photographers, videographers, designers, freelancers, and agencies

  • Maintain a high bar for visual quality and brand consistency

  • Help shape the voice, positioning, and identity of Electric Air

  • Develop creative concepts for ads, videos, campaigns, social content, and physical-world branding

Website & Funnel Optimization

  • Own and improve the website experience

  • Create and iterate on landing pages

  • Improve top-of-funnel conversion and attribution systems

  • Work with engineers and contractors to ship quickly

Local Brand Presence

  • Help Electric Air become a recognized and trusted local brand

  • Support partnerships, events, workshops, and community presence

  • Develop systems for reviews, referrals, and neighborhood density

Content & Storytelling

  • Turn real installs and customer experiences into compelling marketing

  • Help communicate technical concepts simply and elegantly

  • Build systems for collecting photos, videos, testimonials, and install stories

What We’re Looking For

You may not fit perfectly into a traditional marketing category. That’s okay.

We care more about:

  • taste

  • judgment

  • speed

  • ownership

  • curiosity

  • adaptability

than polished corporate experience.

Ideal candidates often come from backgrounds like:

  • startups

  • consumer brands

  • growth roles

  • creative agencies

  • DTC

  • local service businesses

  • hospitality

  • independent creator/operator work

You Might Be a Fit If You:

  • Have strong opinions about what makes a brand feel premium, trustworthy, and modern

  • Can distinguish between tasteful marketing and generic contractor marketing

  • Are highly resourceful and comfortable working with constraints

  • Move quickly and enjoy shipping work

  • Can balance analytics with intuition

  • Are excited to work in the real world — homes, installs, neighborhoods, customers, trucks, events, photography, physical products

  • Are comfortable operating in ambiguity and building systems from scratch

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Google Ads, Meta Ads, or local acquisition

  • Experience with conversion optimization and landing pages

  • Experience directing creative production

  • Experience with local SEO or home services

  • Experience working closely with founders or small teams

  • Strong writing instincts
