This position is HYBRID in Bellevue, WA, 1-3 days a week in office. No sponsorship available for this role. The Opportunity We're looking for an energetic, versatile Communications Specialist to help tell our story while supporting a wide variety of marketing initiatives. This is an ideal opportunity for someone early in their career who is eager to learn, take ownership, and grow alongside a collaborative marketing team. You'll own day-to-day public relations efforts while serving as a key contributor across marketing. No two days will look the same—you might be pitching media, drafting executive communications, coordinating a campaign launch, updating website content, or partnering with our SEO lead to create compelling content. If you're someone who enjoys variety, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is always willing to jump in wherever needed, we'd love to meet you. What You'll Do Own day-to-day public relations activities, including media outreach, press releases, award submissions, and relationship building. Develop content that supports company announcements, thought leadership, customer stories, blogs, and executive communications. Partner closely with the SEO lead to develop and optimize content that drives visibility and engagement. Support marketing campaigns with messaging, content creation, and project coordination. Assist with website updates, social media content, presentations, and other marketing initiatives as needed. Help maintain a consistent brand voice across all communications. Coordinate projects across internal teams and external partners to keep marketing initiatives moving forward. Be the team's go-to person for the many marketing projects that don't fit neatly into one discipline. What You'll Bring 2–3 years of experience in public relations, communications, content marketing, or a related marketing role. Experience working for a technology company or at an agency supporting technology clients. Excellent written and verbal communication skills with exceptional attention to detail. Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously. A proactive, can-do attitude and a willingness to jump in wherever help is needed. Comfortable working in a collaborative, fast-moving environment where priorities can change quickly. Bachelor's degree in Communications, Marketing, Journalism, Public Relations, or a related field. What Will Make You Stand Out You're naturally curious and eager to learn. You're comfortable wearing multiple hats and enjoy variety in your work. You take initiative instead of waiting to be asked. You bring positive energy to your team and enjoy collaborating with others. You're excited by the opportunity to grow your career and take on increasing responsibility over time.
