CMO / Head of Performance Marketing — AI Companion App
ML Ventures is hiring on behalf of one of our portfolio startups, Dialogue (Pheon), a rapidly growing subscription-based AI companion app.

🌍 Important: Candidates must be Russian-speaking and based outside Russia and Belarus.
What you’ll own
- Build and scale paid acquisition across Meta, Google, TikTok, and other channels, with a strong focus on web funnels
- Own campaign-level unit economics, including CAC, ROAS, LTV, and cohort payback
- Build sustainable acquisition infrastructure in a high-risk vertical, including agency accounts, account diversification, and post-ban recovery
- Lead and grow a team of media buyers and creatives, including hiring, processes, KPIs, and performance management
- Work closely with Product to improve funnel conversion, pricing, and retention
- Own creative strategy, including hypothesis testing, iteration speed, and creative performance analytics
- Build scalable marketing processes and infrastructure from the ground up
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
