About The Position

Tribe AI is seeking a Communications Lead to shape how the company presents itself publicly and turn its frontier-AI delivery work into compelling stories for enterprise buyers, partners, and the wider market. This is a lean function with no established playbook or large team, so the role will help build Tribe’s communications capability as the company grows.

The Communications Lead will serve as the CEO’s external voice and narrative partner, developing the company’s story, preparing the CEO for public appearances, building media relationships, supporting partner communications, and identifying credible stories from customer engagements. The role will also establish communications processes, calendars, measurement, and any agency or freelance support needed.

Requirements

• 7–12 years of experience in communications, PR, or journalism, focused on B2B, enterprise, or AI technology.
• Established relationships with technology press, including reporters and editors at outlets such as The Information, TechCrunch, VentureBeat, Bloomberg, Forbes, or WSJ Tech.
• Experience shaping external communications for a technical or AI company and explaining complex technical work clearly and credibly.
• Experience working directly with founders or C-suite executives on personal visibility and thought leadership.
• Strong writing skills and the ability to write in another person’s voice while maintaining a clear, credible, and distinctive style.
• Confidence and presence when working with executives, journalists, and partners, along with the ability to express informed opinions.
• Experience thriving in an early-stage company or small team with limited structure.

Nice To Haves

• Experience as a journalist covering enterprise technology or AI, as a reporter or editor, with an interest in moving in-house.
• Experience building a communications function from scratch.
• Experience in AI, SaaS, or professional services and familiarity with enterprise buyers’ language and concerns.
• Experience with partner or co-marketing communications involving large platform companies.

Responsibilities

• Define and maintain Tribe’s narrative about the company and enterprise AI across press, partner communications, and the company’s own channels.
• Prepare and brief the CEO for interviews, panels, and podcasts, and help shape bylines, LinkedIn posts, and keynote talks.
• Manage media relations, pitching stories to enterprise and AI technology journalists and using existing relationships to secure coverage.
• Work with the Partnerships team on joint stories and announcements with AI labs and platforms Tribe builds on.
• Partner with marketing, GMs, and delivery teams to identify credible, specific stories from customer engagements and explain technical work in terms enterprise buyers understand.
• Build communications processes, calendars, measurement, and agency or freelance support as the company grows.
