Requirements

What you’ll need

8+ years in communications, with significant experience leading corporate comms, PR, or executive communications at a technology company and/or agency experience.
A track record of building communications strategy that moved a company's reputation or market position—not just generated coverage—including owning comms for major product launches and company milestones.
The instincts of a new media storyteller: you can sit with researchers, engineers, and product people, pull out the insight that matters, and translate it into a narrative that lands with technical and non-technical audiences alike.
Strong media relationships and judgment—you know which stories are worth pitching, when to be proactive versus reactive, and how to handle high-stakes or sensitive situations.
Comfort as a thought partner to a CEO and executive team, shaping executive voice across talking points, briefings, bylines, keynotes, and social.
Enough fluency in the technical substance to engage credibly on model performance, developer tooling, and enterprise AI deployment. You don't need to be an ML researcher, but curiosity here is non-negotiable.
Comfort with ambiguity and a builder's mindset—you're energized by shaping a function that isn't fully built yet, and can create lightweight structure for launches and cross-functional coordination without adding bureaucracy.
A collaborative style, with experience partnering across brand, product marketing, product, demand gen, and GTM.
Excellent writing and editing, and a high bar for clarity and craft.
