About The Position
This is a rare opportunity to be the first marketing hire at a Y Combinator-backed AI voice automation startup.

This role is central to driving early traction and telling the company's story to the market.
Requirements

- 1–7 years of experience in growth or product marketing, with at least some of that time at an early-stage company
- Demonstrated ability to drive measurable results across multiple channels (SEO, paid, content, product marketing)
- Strong collaboration skills — comfortable working directly with founders and product teams to craft market-facing narratives
- Proficiency with a modern growth tech stack: analytics, CRM, automation, SEO tools, content platforms, and PR tools
- Data-driven mindset: experienced in designing, running, and reporting on experiments with clear KPIs
- Experience building press relationships and converting product milestones into meaningful media coverage
- Genuine enthusiasm for AI-powered marketing and scalable, automated playbooks
Responsibilities
- Own and execute the inbound growth engine end-to-end, setting strategy across SEO, paid, content, and product marketing
- Build repeatable, AI-automation-first marketing playbooks from the ground up
- Define KPIs, run experiments, iterate fast, and communicate results across the organization
- Translate complex product capabilities into compelling, market-facing messaging and positioning
- Work closely with product and founders to shape how the company shows up — on the website, in campaigns, and in the press
- Own paid acquisition across channels: paid social, display, and programmatic
- Research, plan, and execute SEO tactics with a focus on both traditional and AI discoverability
- Build and manage press relationships, pitch stories, and turn product milestones into media coverage
- Constantly experiment with and identify new growth channels
