Vulnerability response at the speed of AI. Cogent. Backed by Greylock.
About the role
Cogent is building a world-class marketing team, and we're looking for smart, fast, exceptional people who are committed to our mission and bring a spark of creativity that sets us apart from traditional B2B marketing. As the founding content leader, you'll own how Cogent sounds: the editorial point of view, the executive and founder voice, and the research and stories we put into the world. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 8-10+ years in content roles in B2B tech, with cybersecurity strongly preferred
- A track record of content that moved real numbers: content-sourced pipeline, organic traffic and rankings, and engagement that turned into meetings
- You've done it at a small company where you were the engine: shipping weekly without a big team, a big budget, or someone else's strategy to execute
- Excellent writing and editorial judgment. You can build a point of view and explain complex security topics simply and credibly
- Proven ghostwriting for executives, with a real system for capturing their voice
- Fluent with AI in the actual work. You can walk through a content workflow you built, where it broke, and what you changed
