Marketing & Events Lead

About the Role

This is a founding marketing hire at a fast-growing AI/ML infrastructure startup building the go-to platform for RL environment creation, training, and evaluation. You will shape brand voice, drive inbound interest, and run memorable events for a deeply technical audience, sitting directly alongside a small, high-caliber team of AI researchers and engineers in San Francisco.

What You'll Do

• Own and execute the overall marketing strategy and content calendar across all channels.

• Lead social media presence on Twitter/X and LinkedIn to grow audience, engagement, and inbound pipeline.

• Ghostwrite high-quality content for company leadership that communicates product vision, insights, and platform milestones.

• Translate complex RL and AI infrastructure concepts into clear, compelling narratives for a technical audience.

• Develop and refine brand voice, positioning, and storytelling across channels.

• Experiment with content formats and double down on what drives results.

• Identify high-leverage event opportunities, such as conferences, hackathons, and technical community gatherings.

• Plan and run high-quality, memorable events that reinforce brand and generate pipeline.

• Support the team with event presence, including coordinating talks and logistics.

What We're Looking For

• 2 to 7 years of experience in marketing, content, or community roles at startups.

• Demonstrable track record of growing social accounts or company branding from an early stage.

• A writing portfolio that shows the ability to understand technical products and explain them simply and accurately.

• Experience planning and running events, meetups, or community programs end-to-end.

• Background marketing AI/ML, developer tools, or technical platforms; B2C or influencer marketing alone is not a fit.

• Genuine fluency in the AI community, including active presence in relevant Twitter/X groups and a solid grasp of the AI/ML landscape.

• Strong existing network within RL researchers, RL engineers, or the broader technical AI startup community.

• Familiarity with analytics tools and growth strategies for social and content.

• Comfortable working independently with limited oversight in a fast-paced, early-stage environment.
