Content Lead
About Avoca
Avoca is transforming how home service companies engage with their customers. Our AI‑powered conversational agents handle every high‑value inbound call—from booking jobs and qualifying leads to driving higher revenue—at a speed and consistency unmatched by human call centers. We are a Series B startup backed by Kleiner Perkins, Meritech Capital, General Catalyst, and other top‑tier investors, with $125 M raised and a $1 B valuation. We grew 10× in 2025 and have scaled to 130+ employees across our NYC headquarters and Santa Barbara office. In a $1 T+ market where 85 % of missed calls go to competitors, we are building a category‑defining platform for AI‑driven customer engagement, serving the largest brands in home services. Our high‑energy, in‑office teams in both locations give every hire an immediate and visible impact.
About the Role
We are hiring Avoca’s first dedicated Content Lead to build the content function from the ground up and make Avoca the trusted source for how home‑services businesses grow and use AI. You will own how Avoca earns attention and gets discovered—from Google and AI search visibility to customer stories, original research, and points of view that shape the market. This highly hands‑on role involves setting strategy and driving content from idea through research, creation, distribution, and measurement. You will interview customers and subject‑matter experts, turning Avoca’s expertise, data, and results into useful, compelling content. Using AI, you will increase the speed and scale of the operation while maintaining a high bar for originality, accuracy, and quality. Reporting to the Head of Growth, you will work closely with Product Marketing, Brand, and Sales.
