What you need

  • 7+ years of marketing experience with real ownership of positioning and narrative for a product or category at the individual contributor level.
  • Proven ability to drive a launch, repositioning, or category story end to end, including the writing and strategic thinking behind the work.
  • Strong content instincts, with the ability to create crisp narratives, sharp positioning documents, and launch materials that audiences actually engage with.
  • Active, practical fluency with AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, or similar, with evidence that AI has meaningfully changed how you work and what you ship.
  • High bias to action, with a track record of shipping, gathering feedback, iterating, and filling gaps without waiting for perfect information.
  • Ability to translate technical depth into clear, compelling messaging without oversimplifying a novel product.

Nice to have

  • Hands-on experience building community among developers or other technical builder audiences.
  • Technical fluency from building software or working closely enough with engineers to understand codebases, pull requests, and deploy cycles.
  • Experience in product analytics, instrumentation, observability, developer tools, open source, or AI coding tools.
  • Growth-hacking experience in an early-stage or 0-to-1 product environment.

What you get

  • Highly competitive, employer-heavy coverage in the United States, including $0 premium options.
  • Strong 401(k) match.
  • Equity.
  • Flexible time off.

Worth weighing

  • This is a 0-to-1 role, which may involve ambiguity and a lack of established processes.
  • The role requires a strong understanding of AI tools and their application in marketing, which may not be suitable for all candidates.
  • The position is remote but requires collaboration with teams in various locations, which may affect work-life balance.
  • No specific salary listed for remote locations outside of New York or San Francisco.
