About Motion
Given the speed of AI advancement, we operate under two assumptions about the future of work:1. AI will do 100x more work over the next decade2. Humans will always be needed for oversight, strategy, and the toughest decisionsTo manage this future, there must be a system that lets a single human manage 100x more work, done by both AI and people. That’s what we’re building at Motion.We spent the past 5 years building the best automated project management software—an AI project manager that eliminates reactive project management—Motion predicts what will get done early or late, automatically coordinates the right person to do the highest impact task at the right time, and ensures no steps are missed.The real moat in AI agents is context: whoever has the most data to let the system think and work exactly like their users will win.
Motion already has a lead: tasks, projects, docs, meetings, calendars, and communication all live in one place, making us best equipped to swap out human work for AI technology improves. Integrating all these systems seamlessly is incredibly hard, but we're uniquely capable of doing this because we are one of the most operationally excellent companies in the world.With backing from YC and Sam Altman, a $500M+ valuation, and hundreds of thousands of users, we’re well positioned to lead. Now we’re building agents that work with extreme accuracy and unlock an order-of-magnitude boost in productivity.Motion isn’t a 9–5.
It’s intense, fast, and not for everyone. But if you want to work with top talent, learn fast, and help redefine how work gets done—you’ll thrive here.Location: USA, Canada, UK (fully remote)
About the Hiring Manager
Hi, I’m Gary, Motion’s Head of Growth. Before Motion, my career had spanned a few fields: teaching, consulting, and data analytics. Broad experiences but not deep. I came to Motion as the first business generalist on the team, but I knew to find genuine satisfaction in my career I needed to specialize. I quickly found a home in growth - the intersection of product, data, and marketing.Over the years, I’ve become obsessed with not just growth, but more broadly, how to distribute a product. That is the problem you and I will work on together.
“If you build it, they will come” is the exact antithesis of how the world of growth works. To efficiently distribute a product you need to fight for every single inch, one by one. I’m confident that Motion’s growth team is world-class not only due to the results we deliver but also from talking to many (120+) growth leaders in tech. From these conversations, I have come to believe there are two key growth mistakes made by promising young companies. These issues can be summarized as: (a) companies work on too many distribution channels at once (indigestion not starvation) and (b) companies’ bar for success is not high enough and often not even quantified. The result is distribution-focused organizations are often mediocre, bottlenecked, rubber stamp compliance-laden, and not performance driven. In opposition, Motion is (a) razor focused on a few methods of distribution that are best-in-class (b) highly driven by numbers to form conviction for business decisions.
