About this role

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

- 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.
