Overview

We’re seeking a dynamic Field and Events Marketing Manager to design and execute Augment’s events and target accounts strategy. You’ll own the strategy behind why we show up where we do, how we engage C-suite decision makers in freight, carrier, and asset management, and how events translate into pipeline and revenue. From small, high-value networking dinners to large-scale trade show activations, you’ll craft programs that strengthen relationships, generate sales pipeline, and establish our presence as a category leader.

What You’ll Do
  • Design and execute event strategy: Partner with Sales and Marketing leadership to map out and execute an annual event plan, prioritizing the right mix of 50+ conferences, executive dinners, roadshows, and roundtables that align to business goals and target accounts.

  • Execute networking programs: Plan and deliver dozens of executive-level micro events annually, creating intimate settings that highlight Augie’s capabilities and foster valuable peer-to-peer discussions among C-suite decision makers.

  • Lead major trade show activations: Own Augment’s presence at top logistics conferences—including booth design and experience, speaking opportunities, executive roundtables, and VIP hospitality. Create a warm, welcoming environment for the brand and ensure Augment stands out from traditional industry approaches.

  • Manage end-to-end logistics: Oversee all details from venue selection and contract negotiation to catering, AV, guest list management, registration platforms, and on-site execution. Anticipate and troubleshoot issues to deliver flawless experiences.

  • Drive pre and post-event engagement and follow-up: Collaborate with Marketing on compelling event promotions, invitations, and post-event campaigns. Partner with Sales to ensure follow-up drives opportunities forward and strengthens executive relationships.

  • Measure impact: Define success metrics for every program. Track leads, pipeline contribution, attendance quality, and ROI to continually optimize event strategy.

  • Stay ahead of trends and experiment: Monitor the logistics and events landscape to identify emerging conferences, new formats, and bold, creative ways to reach decision makers.

What We’re Looking For
  • 4+ years of B2B field marketing or event marketing experience with proven business impact.

  • Ability to design strategy and execute both small executive events (5–15) and large conferences (500+).

  • Executive presence: skilled at engaging senior decision makers, building relationships, and representing the Augment brand with professionalism and confidence.

  • Strong project management—able to juggle multiple events, budgets, vendors, and details under tight deadlines.

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills with Sales, Marketing, and external partners.

  • Experience managing budgets, negotiating vendors, and tracking ROI.

  • Comfortable with 60%+ travel across North America (and occasionally internationally), including evenings and weekends.

Bonus Points For
  • Experience and existing relationships in the logistics, freight, or transportation sectors, especially among associations, event hosts and influencers.

  • Background in premium or high-end event production that shows understanding of executive expectations.

  • Familiarity with event tech platforms (registration, lead capture, networking apps, virtual/hybrid).

  • Certifications such as CMP or CSEP.

Why Join Us?
  • Competitive Salary + Commission + Stock Options

  • Comprehensive Health, Vision & Dental Benefits

  • Equity in a High-Growth AI Startup

About Augment

At Augment, we set out to create a fully autonomous AI platform that streamlines operations and reclaims the human element in logistics. Our founders recognized a pattern: talented professionals were stuck handling manual data entry, phone calls, and repetitive tasks, instead of focusing on high-impact problem-solving and strategic decision-making.

That insight became our mission—to free logistics professionals from busywork so they can focus on what truly drives business growth. Augment isn’t just about efficiency; it’s about transforming an entire industry by empowering teams with AI-driven solutions that make logistics smarter, faster, and more adaptive.

Join us on this journey!

We are an equal-opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other legally protected status. Augment is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities through the hiring process.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
