About Mike Fynn

I built my career by taking on responsibility early, moving fast, and repeatedly stepping into ambiguous situations where I was expected to figure things out. Across enterprises, agency work, and startup environments, the common thread has been the same: I learn quickly, earn trust fast, build systems from scratch, and produce measurable business outcomes.What makes my background different is that I did not come up through a narrow marketing-only path. I started in operations leadership, managing people and solving real business problems immediately out of school. That gave me a level of management, communication, and execution discipline that most marketers do not develop early. When I moved into marketing, I paired that foundation with strong channel expertise, analytics, and later, startup-level ownership.Over time, I became the person companies brought in when they needed someone to build or fix growth systems. I have repeatedly launched paid media programs from zero, improved efficiency dramatically, created reporting infrastructure where it did not exist, and helped leadership teams make better decisions. More recently, I have layered AI and operational systems thinking into my work, which has made me more effective not just as a marketer, but as a builder of scalable go-to-market systems.

Experience

1. Senior Manager, Demand Generation

   nTop

   Mar 2025 — Present · NY, US

   nTop builds advanced aircraft design software for engineering teams in aerospace and defense. After two startups where I built programs from scratch, this was a different kind of challenge: joining an existing demand generation engine and evolving it as the company pushed into larger enterprise accounts.My former boss from Aquant had come in as VP of Marketing and brought me in to run the full function, which expanded my scope beyond paid media into email, events, ABM, content syndication, and sales outreach coordination. In three of my first four quarters I contributed to record ARR pipeline generation.Something that has genuinely changed how I work here is becoming AI-native. I taught myself to build with agentic workflows and put it to use directly: a signal-to-sales engine the sales team uses today, account research agents, and repeatable systems that make the whole function faster. That is increasingly how I think about my own value.
