About the role

An agent can build a segment in minutes. A marketer still has to understand it, trust it and put budget behind it. Getting them there is an interface problem, and it's this job. Minerva's agents handle a marketing team's most data-heavy work. What reaches the customer is a screen. That screen has to make complex data feel simple. It also has to make the output trustworthy, and good enough to use, so that it leads to a result. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Taste. This is the hardest one to write a bullet for, so we'll just say it: your work shows it. Sometimes it's restraint. Sometimes it's making dull data fun, getting clarity out of a user, or showing what a product does without giving away how
  • Opinions you can defend. Your reasons come from first principles that matter to the person using the product, not from a model's suggestion
  • Shipped work. You've designed and shipped production interfaces yourself. We don't care about titles or years. We care what you've built
  • You fight for decisions, with others. You argue a call through with people who care as much as you do, and you let the better argument win
  • Located in or willing to relocate to New York City
More about this role

Minerva builds AI for marketing leaders. We work together with marketers to automate and accelerate their workflows with AI agents. Our agents augment the end-to-end workflow of the marketer by automating analysis, campaign planning, activation, measurement and reporting.

Customers like the NBA, Ramp, Wander, Hard Rock Stadium Group and Luxury Presence use Minerva to develop a better understanding of their customers and introduce AI specifically built to understand the customer into their commercial organizations. Our campaigns outperform other tools because we built the entire stack: from identity to enrichment to data integration as well as agents to action and report on the analysis.

We've raised $20M from The General Partnership, 8VC, Lingotto, NBA Investments, Topology Ventures, Future Positive, Background Capital and many others. Our team brings together operators and investors from Citadel, Dentsu, Bridgewater, Meta Superintelligence, Growthloop, Amazon and Lazard, alongside engineers and researchers from Berkeley, MIT, Stanford and Cambridge.

We build in TypeScript, React, TanStack Start, Base UI and Tailwind. We use Motion where movement earns its place.
