Performance Marketer
Position Summary & Responsibilities
About Nuance Labs
Nuance Labs is building photorealistic, real-time AI avatars with emotional intelligence: a full-duplex audiovisual system that can listen, speak, react, interrupt, and respond like a real person.
We're a research company, with PhDs from MIT, UW, Oxford, CMU, and Johns Hopkins, and industry experience from Apple, Meta, Amazon AGI, and more. Backed by Accel, Lightspeed, South Park Commons, and NVIDIA, we combine frontier research with ruthless engineering needed for consumer-grade, real-time systems. The team is small, the work is real, and the problems are unsolved.
How Nuance Differentiates
Most conversational AI avatars today are hacks — a face slapped on a speech-to-speech pipeline, stuck in the uncanny valley: emotionless, mechanical, one-turn-at-a-time. Current systems take 2–5 seconds to respond; natural conversation requires sub-500ms. That's a 10x improvement, and it demands rethinking the entire stack.
That rethinking starts with full-duplex: an AI that listens and speaks simultaneously, perceives emotion in real time, and responds with a face that actually reflects it. It's an extremely hard problem, and we're developing foundation models designed for it from the ground up.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Performance Marketer who combines analytical rigor with fast, hands-on execution. This is a zero-to-one opportunity: build our first repeatable acquisition channels and turn early interest into meaningful product usage. You’ll help establish the playbook, using small, fast experiments to learn what works.
You’ll own acquisition experiments, campaign measurement, and conversion optimization. That means launching campaigns yourself, understanding what happens after the click, and making clear decisions about what to scale, change, or stop. You should be equally comfortable digging into a funnel and testing a new creative idea.
You’ll report to our Chief Growth Officer, and work closely with product, engineering, and Developer Relations. This is a hands-on individual contributor role. Your initial focus will be finding and validating a small number of acquisition channels, improving conversion to first meaningful product usage, and building a clear measurement foundation. Our Chief Growth Officer will set overall growth priorities and budget with you.
