Job Description
About Handshake
Handshake was founded on a simple belief that everyone deserves a path to a great career, regardless of where they went to school or who they know. Today, we power 25 million job seekers, 1 million+ employers, and 1,600 educational institutions.

We work directly with frontier AI lab researchers to create evaluations, publish benchmarks, and push the boundary of data. We've grown from $0 to ~$1B run rate and pay ~$60M to over 30K individuals every month. Now, we are bringing the same capabilities to grow the Enterprise business.
Why join Handshake now:
Shape how every career evolves in the AI economy, at global scale, with impact your friends, family and peers can see and feel
Partner hand-in-hand with world-class AI labs, Fortune 500 partners and the world's top educational institutions
Work together with engineers, scientists, operators, and more from Palantir, Meta, Scale AI, and former YC founders
Build a massive, fast-growing business with billions in revenue
About Handshake AI
Human data is the core infrastructure to AI advancement. Frontier AI labs currently improve model capabilities with various data-intensive post-training techniques. We believe that data spend for AI training will increase by 3-5x in the next few years and continue for much longer as models take on new domains. Handshake AI supports all of the frontier AI labs, working on their most complex data at the largest scale.
We're now bringing that same rigor to the enterprise. Handshake AI moves enterprise agents from pilot to production, in a repeatable way, through quality infrastructure such as evals and rubrics, simulations, safety and security testing, and model optimization that encodes an organization's own expertise into durable, sovereign IP the customer owns, at the optimal cost. We work with Fortune 500 leaders to close the gap between AI pilots and production-grade deployment.
About The Role
You'll be the end-to-end product marketing owner for Handshake AI's frontier lab business, the connective tissue between research, product, sales, and the market. You'll translate deep technical work into positioning that lands with researchers and lab leadership, then arm sales with everything they need to close and grow those relationships. This is a build-from-scratch seat: you'll set the GTM playbook for a business growing faster than almost anything in AI.
Positioning & Strategy: Build end-to-end positioning, messaging, and competitive strategy for Handshake AI's frontier lab business, keeping it unified with Handshake's broader career-network story rather than siloed as a separate business.
Research Translation: Partner with the HAI research team to turn technical research outputs into market-ready content, building Handshake AI's credibility with researchers and the broader AI community.
Sales Ownership: Serve as the primary PMM point of contact and decision-maker for how Handshake AI shows up in lab-facing conversations — value props, proof points, pricing/packaging narratives, and objection handling.
Sales Enablement Materials: Build and maintain the playbooks, talk tracks, competitive one-pagers, and pitch assets the field runs on, iterating based on direct feedback from Sales.
GTM Strategy: Partner with HAI Product and Sales leadership to shape long-term product and GTM strategy — synthesizing customer, competitive, and market insight into clear executive recommendations — and codify the frameworks, launch templates, and messaging systems the broader team reuses.
Event & Field Marketing: Partner with event marketing to translate HAI positioning into compelling in-person and virtual experiences, owning messaging for executive dinners, field events, and conference activations.
You'll also help stand up Handshake AI's newer Enterprise AI business, which brings that same rigor to Fortune 500 companies moving agents from pilot to production:
Content & Thought Leadership: Create content and thought leadership pieces for external awareness, and figure out how to promote them across the website, social, and other channels.
Sales Enablement: Build the assets sales needs to sell Enterprise AI into Fortune 500 accounts such as competitive battlecards, pitch decks, use case examples, and other collateral.
Use Case Prioritization: Prioritize which enterprise use cases and industries to go after, based on market and customer insight.
Event Marketing: Collaborate with the Events team on which enterprise-specific events to attend and how Handshake AI shows up there.

Bonus points:
