We are seeking a Senior Director of Marketing with a singular focus: pipeline generation and conversion. This role is the engine room of Arkose Labs’ go-to-market motion. You will own the demand generation function end to end, building and optimizing the programs, systems, and processes that create pipeline, accelerate deals, and convert opportunities to revenue.

This is a hands-on, execution-heavy leadership role for someone who lives in the data, obsesses over conversion rates at every funnel stage, and views AI-powered tools as force multipliers for a lean, high-performing team. You must bring strong domain credibility in cybersecurity, fraud prevention, or digital trust to build campaigns that resonate with technical buyers and security leaders.
