The Mission: Architect Our Demand Engine

Our company is poised for its next stage of growth, and the marketing engine that got us here won't be the one that takes us to the next level. We are looking for a data-obsessed, performance-focused marketing leader to be the architect of our future revenue engine. Your primary mission is to diagnose, redesign, and scale a modern, AI-augmented, multi-channel demand generation strategy that delivers a predictable and high-quality pipeline. You’ll leverage emerging AI tools and data infrastructure to accelerate insights, automate workflows, and personalize outreach at scale.

You will be a key member of the leadership team, taking full ownership of the marketing function and the BDR team. This is a role for a builder who is excited by the challenge of transforming a marketing function, launching a new brand presence, and owning the number one metric that matters: growth.

We’re seeking a data-driven, AI-native marketing leader to own our brand, accelerate demand generation, and build a high-performing team at a pivotal moment of growth. As Vice President of Marketing, you will inherit a newly launched rebrand and be responsible for scaling awareness, category creation, and revenue impact, setting the pace for our industry.

The VP of Marketing reports directly to the Chief Operating Officer.
