Growth Marketing, Fellowship Program
The Obvious Fellowship Program is building the first generation of AI-native operators — through real work, world-class mentorship, and the AI fluency that sets you apart.
The Obvious Growth Fellowship is for people who want to build something that matters — not watch from the sidelines. You'll work on growth, marketing, and go-to-market strategy at a company that's raised $100M and built one of the most advanced AI agent products in the world.
You won't be fetching coffee. You'll be launching experiments, analyzing user behavior, crafting messaging, and shipping work that moves the business. You'll collaborate with AI engineers, product leaders, and operators who've built products at Netflix, Mailchimp, Google, Scale AI, Amazon, Twitch, Intercom, PayPal, and Pinterest.
This is the kind of experience that compresses a decade of growth into a few months — and changes how you think about building your career.
This isn't a 9-to-5. It's intense — fast iteration, high expectations, and a lot of building and shipping. If that sounds exhausting, this isn't for you. If that sounds like exactly what you've been looking for — keep reading.
What You'll Actually Do
Growth experiments — Design, launch, and analyze tests across acquisition, activation, and retention. You'll run real campaigns with real budgets and real stakes.
Product-led growth — Work on onboarding flows, activation loops, and engagement strategies. You'll use data and user research to find leverage points in the funnel.
Go-to-market strategy — Help shape positioning, messaging, and launch plans for new features. You'll write copy that ships, not slides that sit.
Content and community — Create content that educates, engages, and converts. You'll build in public and learn what resonates.
Sales enablement — Support the sales team with collateral, case studies, and competitive intelligence. You'll see how deals get done.
AI-powered workflows — Use Obvious's AI agents to automate repetitive work, analyze data faster, and build things that would normally require a full team.
What We're Looking For
Capability matters more than credentials — You don't need a marketing degree or a 4.0 GPA. You need to care deeply about how things grow, why people buy, and what makes products stick.
Bias for action — You'd rather ship something imperfect and learn than wait for the perfect plan. You iterate fast and don't need permission to try things.
Analytical rigor — You're comfortable with data. You can pull insights from messy spreadsheets, spot patterns, and translate numbers into strategy.
Strong communicator — You write clearly, think structurally, and can make a compelling case for your ideas. You know how to tell a story.
Relentlessly hardworking — Fast iteration, high expectations, a lot of building and shipping. You're driven to do exceptional work.
New grad or early career — Capability matters more than credentials. No degree required. But you can't be a current student — this requires full-time commitment.
What You'll Get
Real responsibility — You'll own projects that matter. No shadow work. No fake tasks. If you ship something great, it'll move the business.
World-class mentorship — You'll work alongside people who've scaled products to millions of users and built companies from scratch. You'll get feedback that makes you better.
Top-tier tools — Professional-grade equipment and access to Obvious's AI agents. You'll work with technology most companies are still trying to understand.
Career-defining experience — This role compresses years of growth into months. You'll come out of it with skills, credibility, and a network that sets you up for whatever comes next.
A front-row seat to startup building — You'll see how decisions get made, how products get built, and how companies scale. You'll understand what works and what doesn't — before most people even get their first job.

How to Apply
No resume. No cover letter. Just show us what you can do.
Step 1 — Get access. Apply here, and if approved, you'll get access to Obvious with no waitlist.
Step 2 — Build something impressive. Use Obvious to create a project that shows how you think. It could be a growth analysis, a campaign plan, a market research deep-dive, a competitive teardown — whatever demonstrates your skills and creativity. There's no right answer. We want to see your process.
Step 3 — Share your project. Add jon@obvious.ai and jessica@obvious.ai to your project with chat history enabled. We don't just want to see what you built — we want to see how you got there. The conversation, the iteration, the thinking.
Step 4 — We'll reach out. If we like what we see, we'll schedule two quick 30-minute interviews. In the first, be prepared to walk us through your project and iterate on it live. We're looking for how you think under pressure.
Why This Matters
Most people spend their early career doing work that doesn't matter for companies that don't care. They move slowly, stay safe, and wonder why they're not growing.
This fellowship is different. You'll work on things that are hard, alongside people who are excellent, in an environment that rewards ambition. You'll leave with skills, confidence, and a network that will compound for the rest of your career.
If you're the kind of person who wants to feel the energy of a fast-moving startup, learn from world-class operators, and do work that actually moves the needle — this is for you.
