Growth Hackers Guide To Producthunt
I believe it is always best to get multiple introductions from different thought leaders.
I think growth hacking is split into two schools: product-led and growth marketing.

I liked the book traction by justin mares. The demand curve folks also have good resources on their website.
Resources aside, I'd suggest starting a brand on your favourite social platform or on your own newsletter/blog. In the same niche as your future SaaS Product, and grow that.
You can learn the growth tactics for for those channels, and if it goes well, you have an audience that could become customers of your product. Reading is helpful, but I think it's always better to get in there and grow something.
That's what I did become I was director of growth at an agency that went 4x in 1 year. Tactics around building a team and managing all that come later.
Hope that help!! All the best!
There is unfortunately no exact roadmap. You should track trends, take a glance the other growth strategies. If you follow people who influence this area, it should be also help. I put bellow some resource about it.
