About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to be the first marketer at a well-funded B2B SaaS company operating in an emerging developer tools category. Working directly alongside the CEO — who is an active, hands-on marketing collaborator — you'll own positioning, messaging, and the full content engine from the ground up, building the brand and go-to-market narrative for a technical developer audience.

What You'll Do

  • Own product marketing strategy, positioning, and competitive differentiation tailored to technical buyers including engineers and product leaders.

  • Build and execute a long-form content strategy — blog posts, guides, and educational material — rooted in real customer use cases and designed to earn organic attention.

  • Craft messaging and talk tracks that make complex product value clear and compelling to developer audiences.

  • Own the website experience, ensuring it speaks directly to customer problems rather than just describing features.

  • Activate founder and team voices across social channels, newsletters, and industry platforms to build authentic presence.

  • Lead pipeline and awareness programs including developer conferences, executive engagement events, and targeted campaigns.

  • Build competitive collateral and frameworks that sharpen GTM team conversations in the field.

  • Design marketing systems and processes from scratch as the founding member of the marketing function.

What We're Looking For

  • 4+ years in product marketing, growth marketing, or content marketing in B2B environments.

  • Demonstrated experience marketing to technical buyers — engineers, product leaders, developer audiences — with a deep understanding of how they evaluate solutions.

  • Strong product marketing fundamentals: positioning, messaging, competitive differentiation, and launch execution.

  • Exceptional writing skills that translate technical complexity into clear, compelling narratives.

  • Track record of building earned content that drives genuine attention and measurable business results.

  • Proven ability to own the full marketing function independently, building systems rather than just executing within them.

  • Experience with demand generation programs including developer conferences, executive engagement, and pipeline creation.

  • Background in developer tools, APIs, infrastructure software, or AI/ML products strongly preferred.

  • Experience building founder or executive thought leadership programs is a plus.

  • Experience creating sales enablement materials and competitive talk tracks is a plus.
