    About this role

    About Fyxer Fyxer launched in May 2024 and hit $1M in revenue across 3,000 paid users without spending a dollar on marketing. We've since gone from $1M to $30M ARR and raised a Series B led by Madrona, with Lakestar, 20VC and Marc Benioff behind us.Far more people start using Fyxer every month than we can speak to. Nobody owns turning those users into paying teams.
