Marketing & Events Lead

About the Role

This is a founding marketing hire at an early-stage AI infrastructure company building a marketplace and platform for reinforcement learning environments. You will join a small, highly technical team in San Francisco to shape brand voice, grow inbound interest, and run memorable events for a deeply technical community. The role is pivotal to translating complex RL and post-training concepts into compelling narratives that resonate with researchers and engineers.

What You'll Do

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

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

• Ghostwrite high-quality content for founders that communicates product vision, insights, and platform wins.

• Translate complex technical product concepts into clear, compelling narratives for a technical audience.

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

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

• Identify high-leverage event opportunities, including 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 speaker and talk logistics.

What We're Looking For

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

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

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

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

• Must be AI-native, with an active presence in AI communities and a genuine understanding of the current AI landscape.

• Background marketing AI/ML, developer tools, or technical platforms; consumer or influencer marketing experience alone is not sufficient.

• Existing network within RL research, RL engineering, or the broader technical startup community.

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

• Comfortable operating independently in a fast-paced, early-stage environment with limited direction.
