About the role
This is a hands-on, 0→1 marketing role spanning brand strategy, product marketing, B2B marketing and consumer marketing.

What they're looking for
- Director/Senior Director-level experience in brand marketing, product marketing or B2B/platform marketing
- A track record of owning positioning and category narrative, and personally driving major product or platform launches
- Hands-on ownership of messaging, website copy, sales collateral, campaigns and content — this is a builder role, not a strategy-only or agency-directing one
- Experience working closely with Product, Sales/GTM and customers to shape go-to-market
- Demonstrated ability to operate with a bias for action in a 0→1 or fast-changing environment, without full structure or resources in place
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the executive presence to influence senior stakeholders
