The Director of Marketing is responsible for building a marketing engine, creating impactful content strategies, and ensuring pipeline growth in the AI sector.
The Storyteller & Demand Creator
The Reality Check
The AI services market is moving at warp speed. OpenAI is closing $10M+ enterprise contracts, and everyone’s scrambling to make sense of what “agentic AI” actually means. We need someone who can cut through the noise, tell stories that matter, and build a 0→1 marketing engine that drives real outcomes — not just buzz.
We’re not looking for another “growth hacker” chasing vanity metrics. We’re looking for someone who understands that enterprise buyers are smart, busy, and allergic to marketing fluff — and knows how to reach them with clarity and credibility in a space that’s still largely unknown. That means educating as much as promoting, and making AI feel actionable — not abstract.
You’ll partner closely with product, sales, and leadership to shape how we talk about what we’re building — and help the market not just hear it, but actually get it.
Anticipated salary band: $175,000 USD - $225,000 USD, commensurate with experience.
What You'll Actually Do
- Turn Wins Into Weapons: Every AI project we nail becomes content gold. You'll systematically transform technical successes into case studies that make other enterprises think "holy shit, we need that too."
- Create the Playbook That Doesn't Exist Yet: Build 0 to 1 content strategy that shows enterprises what's possible with AI. No fluffy thought pieces—real implementation stories with real numbers.
- Build GTM Packages: Create positioning that works across CPG, Manufacturing, Financial Services, and Healthcare. Same core message, different flavors. No one-size-fits-all.
- Build Real Thought Leadership: Position our team as the go-to experts who ship AI solutions, not just talk about them. Create content and speaking opportunities that showcase real expertise.
Success Looks Like
- Pipeline Impact: Marketing generates leads that turn into $10M+ in annual contracts (not just vanity MQLs)
- Market Position: When enterprises think "AI transformation," they think of us first
- Content That Converts: Your case studies drive 40%+ of actual sales conversations
- Clear Differentiation: We're not just another systems integrator with an AI sticker slapped on
