Marketing & Events Lead

About the Role This is a founding marketing hire at an early-stage AI/ML infrastructure company building the go-to platform for reinforcement learning environments and post-training data. You'll sit alongside a small, highly technical team to shape brand voice, grow inbound interest, and run memorable events for a deeply technical community — translating complex RL and AI concepts into narratives that resonate and convert. 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 interest. Ghostwrite high-quality content for founders communicating product vision, platform insights, and key wins. Translate complex, technical product concepts into clear, compelling narratives for a technical audience. Develop and refine brand voice, positioning, and storytelling across channels, experimenting with formats and doubling down on what works. Identify high-leverage event opportunities — conferences, hackathons, and technical communities — where the target audience already gathers. Plan and execute memorable events that reinforce brand and generate pipeline. Support team members with event presence, including talks and speaking engagements. Use analytics tools to measure content performance and continuously optimize strategy. What We're Looking For Proven experience in marketing, content, or community roles at early-stage startups, with the ability to work independently in fast-paced environments. Strong track record of growing social accounts (Twitter/X, LinkedIn) and building company brand from the ground up. Portfolio of writing that demonstrates the ability to understand technical products and explain them accurately and compellingly. Experience planning and running events, meetups, or community programs end-to-end. Background marketing AI/ML, developer tools, or technical platforms. Genuine enthusiasm for frontier AI models and the RL ecosystem. Strong network within the RL research, RL engineering, or broader startup/developer community. Familiarity with analytics tools and growth strategies for social and content. A clear point of view on how great technical companies build brand and tell stories.
