Social Media and Brand Marketing Manager

Chainguard

2d • $111,000 - $130,000 • Remote

About The Position

Chainguard is looking for a Manager, Social Media + Brand Marketing, to lead and evolve our social and brand presence.
This is not a “post and report” role. You’ll own strategy, voice, and execution across channels, helping shape how engineers, security practitioners, and enterprise buyers understand Chainguard, how AI is changing software development, and the broader software supply chain security space.
You’ll operate at the intersection of brand marketing and community, turning complex topics into clear, engaging narratives and viral content, while fostering authentic conversations with our audience and engagement with our brand.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in social media or content roles, preferably in B2B, engineering, or security-focused companies
• Exceptional writing skills with the ability to simplify complex topics
• Deep familiarity with platform dynamics (especially LinkedIn and Reddit)
• Data-driven mindset with experience using analytics to inform strategy
• Ability to create, edit, and share content in tools like Sprout Social, Canva, Descript, and Goldcast
• Comfort operating in a fast-moving, highly technical environment

Responsibilities

• Social media strategy and execution
• Own and evolve Chainguard’s social media strategy across key platforms (LinkedIn, Reddit, YouTube, and wherever you think we should be next)
• Create content that stands out from the noise: create and edit videos to shine for social, create a viral meme, and predict the next social trend
• Develop and manage a content calendar aligned to product launches, brand campaigns, partnerships, and industry moments
• Translate complex security and open source topics into clear, engaging, and shareable content
• Analyze performance and continuously optimize content based on data and audience insights
• Support executives and subject matter experts in building their social presence
• Drive employee advocacy social sharing programs
• Community management (Slack and Reddit)
• Lead and grow Chainguard’s Slack community as a high-signal hub for engineers and security practitioners
• Actively monitor and engage in Reddit conversations relevant to software supply chain security, containers, and open source
• Build trust and credibility through authentic participation, not just brand promotion
• Create feedback loops from community insights back into Product, Marketing, and Developer Relations

Benefits

• Flexible & Remote-First Culture: Work remotely with team meetup opportunities, bi-annual destination summits, and a monthly stipend for coworking spaces, phone and internet costs.
• Our Approach to Equity: Receive stock options upon hire and promotion. Plus, you can participate in secondary offerings and have 10 years to exercise your options (yes, you read that correctly: 10 years!).
• 100% Covered Health Insurance: We cover 100% of your health, vision and dental insurance premiums for you and your dependents. Nothing comes out of your paycheck.
• ∞ Flexible Time Off: Take the time you need – to do our best work, we need to recharge and reset.
• 18 Weeks Paid Parental Leave: We offer 18 weeks for birthing parents and 12 weeks for non-birthing parents, with the option to use it all at once or throughout your child's first year.
