About the Company:

World is building a real human network designed to accelerate people in the age of AI. As bots and autonomous agents reshape the internet, people, institutions, and applications need a trusted way to confirm who is a real human while preserving privacy. Our products make this possible: the Orb verifies real people, World s it privately, and World App enables and distributes the new applications made possible by this technology.

Together, they form a new layer for AI internet.

We’re one of the fastest-growing networks in tech. More than 17 million people across 160 countries have verified with World , and we complete over 350,000 verifications each week. World App is already among the most used wallets globally. Developers are integrating World  build safer online experiences and create spaces where real people can participate, earn, and be recognized in ways AI simply can’t replicate.

The Growth team is responsible for driving global user acquisition, funnel conversion, experimentation, across World products. We build the product surfaces, funnels, incentives, and localized programs that move users from awareness → account creation → Orb/NFC verification → utility. Our team sits across Product, Marketing, Market Ops, and Community, bringing a unified, metrics driven approach to growth. We combine analytical thinking, product velocity, and local insights from users and markets to drive both scalable global growth initiatives and highly localized market initiatives.
