Marketing Expert — Paid Growth (AI Agent Environments) | $60-$100/hr Remote
Overview
Paradigm builds high-fidelity simulated work environments that evaluate and improve AI agents on real marketing tasks. The Paid Growth environments replicate a marketing organization's full tool stack, including Google Ads, Meta Ads, and Google Analytics 4, along with email, CRM, project management, and web analytics, all populated with realistic documents, dashboards, personas, and planted issues. You will design task briefs, specify the supporting artifacts, and review AI agent attempts against your own professional standard as a paid acquisition practitioner.
What You'll Do6
- 1Write task briefs drawn from your own paid acquisition work, and document the specific planted issue and the decision a strong practitioner should reach.
- 2Define the documents, dashboards, personas, and tool states required to make each scenario realistic.
- 3Draft or review reference answers and the scoring criteria that separate a strong response from a plausible but wrong one.
- 4Evaluate AI agent attempts and grade them against your professional standard.
- 5Cover the measured capabilities in your scenarios, including diagnosing messy data, making tradeoffs, planning, execution, QA, triage, research, reporting, and multi-tool orchestration.
- 6Apply the paid growth scope to your scenarios: campaign performance diagnosis, budget allocation, funnel and pipeline diagnosis, lead recovery, account-based marketing, and web and pricing journey optimization.
Requirements5
- 1Hands-on paid acquisition experience with direct ownership of budgets and results, not just team management.
- 2Working fluency in Google Ads, Meta Ads, and Google Analytics 4.
- 3Preferred: experience building AI training environments, RL environments, or simulated case studies.
- 4Preferred: Rubric Academy or Rubric Bootcamp certification.
- 5Ability to write clear, reasoned explanations for why a decision is correct.
Who Should Apply
The ideal candidate has owned paid acquisition budgets and can describe specific campaign diagnosis, budget shifts, and funnel decisions. They are as comfortable writing a detailed brief as they are reviewing an AI agent's output against their own professional bar. This role suits hands-on practitioners, not people who have only supervised marketers, and not someone who needs guidance on the fundamentals of Google Ads or GA4. A common rejection point is the screener, where candidates cannot show practical knowledge of paid growth tradeoffs, or their written examples stay vague instead of naming specific metrics and decisions.
Salary Insight
The hourly rate is $60 to $100. The top of that range aligns with candidates who bring both hands-on paid acquisition ownership and prior experience building AI training environments or simulated case studies.

Application Tip
Before the screener, review your own campaign decisions in Google Ads, Meta Ads, and Google Analytics 4, and be ready to answer multiple-choice questions that test hands-on paid growth knowledge, not theory. Also mention any RL environment or simulated case study work in your application.
