Product & growth marketing

ShaheerAhmad.

I work across product and growth: building social audiences, testing what converts, and feeding the numbers back into what gets built. Right now I run growth and social for Extern, a YC‑backed company in the US.

Worked remotely with 100+ startups across 20+ countries

Growth Marketing · YC‑backed

I own organic growth end to end: content planning, short‑form video on TikTok and Instagram, influencer sourcing, and the experimentation behind it. Every hook, caption and CTA gets A/B tested, and acquisition and engagement metrics are instrumented in Google Analytics, Mixpanel and Metabase so the results feed straight back into what we iterate on next.

  • 20K → 50K LinkedIn followers, up 125%
  • 200K+ impressions from one post in 3 days
  • 100K Instagram impressions from a DM automation
  • 2× followers across Instagram and TikTok

The Digital Organizer

Social Media Manager

Two years owning the social creative for Shawn Lemon's brand: post design, reels, captions and the content calendar behind them. The work later led to a referral to Idea Tree Marketing, where I designed posts for two months.

  • 2 years as the sole creative on the account
  • Referred onward to Idea Tree Marketing by the founder

The path

From a campus TEDx team

What sets Shaheer apart is his creative eye. His designs consistently hit the mark. I love the visuals and on-brand without me having to micromanage the details.

If you're looking for someone who can own your social media creative and actually elevate it, I'd recommend Shaheer without hesitation.
