Jack Ross Growth & Product Marketing

Growth for
technical products.

I help AI, SaaS, and developer tools reach the right people and turn that attention into users. I lead the strategy and build the campaigns, content, and systems behind it.

Pieces · AI memory platform

From creative growth to leading marketing.

Creative Growth Lead Head of Growth & Marketing

I led growth for an AI product with 150K+ users. I owned positioning, launches, content, acquisition, and lifecycle, and worked with the founders, engineering, and freelance partners to ship the campaigns and improve the product funnel.

01 / Creative & positioning

A one-man video factory.

I built an AI-assisted video factory that shipped dozens of product, partnership, and event videos for Pieces—their strongest-performing content format on X. Once the system was in place, each new set of release notes produced a finished video.

Positioning work

Reframed Pieces around on-device AI memory and the “AI amnesia” problem, then carried that narrative through product launches, Product Hunt collateral, release content, landing pages, and education. Launch work included Pieces Copilot, LTM, MCP, and Claude Cowork / model selection.

Campaigns were running without consistent measurement. I made tracking and feedback part of the workflow so we could evaluate performance and decide what to improve.

  • Research + creative — Researched the product and audience, developed campaign angles, and tested hooks and value propositions across video and static creative.
  • Funnels + payments — Built landing pages, signup and checkout flows, and worked on Paddle payment infrastructure and download delivery.
  • Measurement + iteration — Connected GA4 events, campaign attribution, and conversion feedback for Meta and Google Ads; used the data to find funnel drop-off and guide changes.

My campaign ideas and funnel results informed spend decisions; I worked with the founders and external collaborators to execute them.

03 / Lifecycle & retention

Make the next step easier.

I improved the cancellation flow, signup offer, email sequences, and feedback and support paths to address the points where trial users were leaving.

I also created a 12-part tutorial series showing how Pieces’ Single-Click Summaries fit into real work—from meeting prep to standups and daily recaps.

BloomTech · Social Growth

Go viral. Over and over again.

Social media contractor · approximately six months

I ran BloomTech’s social channels, growing Instagram from almost nothing to 30K+ followers. Developer humor and education became a repeatable publishing system that drove millions of views and website clicks from a tech audience.

The goal was to bring a relevant tech audience from social to BloomTech’s website. The content reached 1.5M views in 30 days.

Events + Community · Pieces

Bring people together.

I built the events around the product too—from an online AI summit to an in-person gathering in San Francisco.

Pieces AI Productivity Summit

I put together the Pieces AI Productivity Summit, bringing together 1,400+ attendees for talks, demos, and conversations about working with AI.

Built from scratch on a $0 budget, including programming, speaker outreach, promotion, and production.

The lineup included Scott Hanselman, VP of Developer Community at Microsoft; Rizel Scarlett of Block; speakers from Salesforce and PandaDoc; and a DevRel panel with Chloe Condon of Google.

Hacker Relay sponsored my YouTube channel; I produced the integrations and short-form creative for them.

Product video & creative production

The Video Factory

I built a production system for product demos, launch films, ads, and social cuts. It grew out of shipping release videos at Pieces. I use it to take a brief from script and storyboard through motion, sound design, and finished edits.

Send me what you’re building, what you want to improve, and when it needs to ship. We’ll use that to scope the first milestone.

Tell me what you’re building

Hi, I’m Jack.

I’m a growth marketer, creator, builder, and recovering data engineer. I started on the technical side, moved into content and social, and later became Head of Growth & Marketing at Pieces. That weird combination turned out to be useful.

I’m most useful when the product is technical, the team is lean, and someone needs to connect the story to the growth system behind it.

I like making things people actually notice.
