Director of Marketing & Growth

Location: Noida, Uttar Pradesh - In-Office

Experience: 10+ Years

Primary Market: North America / US, with expanding global responsibility

Customer Segments: Pro-AV System Integrators, AV/IT Consultants, Enterprise AV Teams, Technology Managers and Commercial Technology Providers

Role Overview

XTEN-AV is transforming the Pro-AV industry with an AI-powered platform for AV design, proposals, project management and workflow automation.

We are looking for a Director of Marketing & Growth to join our leadership team at our Noida headquarters.

This is not a role focused primarily on managing day-to-day marketing activities. Your primary mandate is growth.

We are looking for someone who can continuously answer the questions that matter most to our business:

- Where will our next phase of growth come from? Why are we winning or losing customers?

- Which markets, customer segments, channels and messages represent the biggest opportunities?

- What should we do differently to grow faster?

You will analyze markets, customers, competitors, channels, positioning, product adoption and the customer journey to uncover growth opportunities. You will develop hypotheses, test new approaches, challenge existing assumptions and turn successful ideas into scalable growth strategies.

You will work closely with our founders and across Marketing, Sales, Product and Customer Success to translate insights into measurable business growth.

The ideal candidate combines B2B SaaS marketing expertise with exceptional strategic thinking, commercial judgment, creativity and a strong bias toward experimentation.

Key Responsibilities

Growth Strategy & Opportunity Identification

- Continuously identify and prioritize new growth opportunities across customer segments, geographies, products, pricing, partnerships, channels and the customer lifecycle.

- Evaluate the size and potential of opportunities, develop hypotheses and build strategies for capturing them.

- Think beyond existing marketing programs and continuously ask where XTEN-AV's next significant source of growth can come from.

Strategic Problem Solving

- Diagnose growth challenges using customer behavior, funnel data, market intelligence, competitive analysis and first-principles thinking.

- Go beyond identifying what happened to understand why it happened and what we should do about it.

- Challenge assumptions and existing marketing playbooks when the data or market suggests a better approach.

Growth Experimentation

- Build a disciplined experimentation framework across messaging, acquisition, conversion, onboarding, activation, adoption, retention and expansion.

- Develop hypotheses, define success metrics, run experiments quickly and turn successful experiments into scalable growth programs.

- Create an environment where the marketing organization continuously learns rather than simply executes.

Full-Funnel Growth

- Think beyond lead generation.

- Identify opportunities across the entire customer journey: Awareness - Acquisition - Conversion - Activation - Adoption - Retention - Expansion.

- Work closely with Sales, Product and Customer Success to identify friction, improve conversion and increase customer lifetime value.

Positioning & Category Strategy

- Define how XTEN-AV and its products should be positioned within the rapidly evolving intersection of AI, Pro-AV design and workflow automation.

- Develop differentiated narratives that clearly communicate why customers should choose XTEN-AV over existing software, manual workflows or emerging competitors.

- Translate sophisticated capabilities - including AI-assisted AV design, automated schematics, BOM creation, CAD workflows and project automation - into compelling business outcomes and ROI stories.

Market & Customer Intelligence

- Develop a deep understanding of our customers, including Pro-AV integrators, consultants, enterprise technology teams and AV professionals.

- Continuously analyze customer needs, market trends, competitive positioning, win/loss patterns, product adoption, pricing, emerging technologies and new segments.

Demand & Pipeline Strategy

- Determine the right combination of ABM, inbound, content, paid acquisition, events, partnerships, community, outbound support and other channels based on customer segment and economics.

- Build scalable programs that generate qualified pipeline and measurable ARR.

- Continuously evaluate where marketing resources should be invested for the highest incremental return.

Creative & Messaging Strategy

- Develop creative approaches for communicating complex technology simply and memorably.

- Challenge conventional B2B SaaS marketing and develop campaigns, narratives and creative concepts capable of standing out in the Pro-AV and technology markets.

- Ensure that messaging resonates differently when communicating with technical users, business leaders, enterprise buyers and industry partners.

Growth Economics & Analytics

- Establish the metrics that matter most for growth and use them to guide business and marketing decisions.

- Maintain a strong understanding of CAC, LTV, funnel conversion, activation, retention, churn, expansion revenue, pipeline velocity and channel ROI.

Marketing Leadership

- Lead, mentor and develop our marketing team across growth, demand generation, product marketing, content, creative and performance marketing.

- Establish clear priorities and empower functional team members to handle execution while maintaining strategic ownership of the overall marketing and growth direction.

- Build a culture of curiosity, experimentation, accountability and continuous improvement.

- You are comfortable challenging assumptions - including your own.

Proven Growth Track Record

- You have personally contributed to meaningful growth at a B2B technology or SaaS company and can clearly explain your impact.

Senior B2B SaaS / Technology Experience

Experimentation Mindset

- You naturally turn questions into hypotheses and hypotheses into experiments.

- You are comfortable testing ideas, learning from unsuccessful experiments and changing direction when evidence contradicts your assumptions.

Data Fluency

- You are comfortable working with marketing, product and revenue data and can independently derive insights from it.

- Experience with platforms such as HubSpot, Salesforce, Google Analytics, Mixpanel or equivalent systems is valuable.

Creativity & Intellectual Curiosity
