Inflection AI · Palo Alto, CA · 3 wk ago
HybridMarketing$180k–$280k/yrFull-time

About the Role

Reporting to the Head of Communications, you'll partner closely on strategy and messaging, and then own how that narrative reaches the market: product launches, content and editorial, social, technical thought leadership, community, and more. This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who has run marketing before and who can move fluidly between strategic thinking and hands-on execution. You'll set the strategy for your surfaces, build the systems that let a lean team publish and launch like a much bigger one, and hold a high bar for quality and craft.

What You'll Do

  • Product Marketing
    • Own product launches end to end, including messaging, timing, assets, and cross-functional alignment, so each release builds on the last and compounds into a larger story
    • Translate product and technical capabilities and the research behind it into positioning and messaging frameworks the rest of the company builds on
    • Own competitive and market intelligence: track the AI landscape and turn it into clear implications for positioning, product, and go-to-market
  • Content Marketing
    • Own content strategy and the editorial engine behind it: the cadence, quality bar, and AI-assisted workflows that turn a small team's expertise into durable awareness and organic reach
    • Write and produce flagship long-form work (essays, guides, whitepapers) and the short-form copy that carries that content across channels
    • Represent the brand voice and day-to-day presence on social, growing an audience that compounds over time
    • Partner with product, research, and engineering teams to produce technically credible work that features accessibility without dilution
  • Technical Thought Leadership
    • Build the company's technical thought leadership program: work with executive, research, engineering and product teams to surface the ideas worth sharing, then shape them into essays, talks, and threads that stand out in a crowded market
    • Help establish Inflection AI as a market leader in personal intelligence and emotionally intelligent AI
  • Community
    • Own and grow the community channels. Build real relationships with practitioners, researchers, and power users to expand the company's reach
    • Represent Inflection AI where technical credibility is the price of admission

What We're Looking For

  • 10–15 years of marketing experience, with meaningful time owning content or marketing at consumer software or AI/ML companies
  • A track record of building content-led growth — audiences, editorial operations, launch programs — and the judgment to know which levers matter
  • Strong writer who moves between technical and accessible without losing substance
  • A true owner: you align on narrative and direction with leadership, then run your lanes with autonomy and accountability for outcomes
  • Comfortable executing across cross-functional teams
  • Low ego, high output; you take pride in the work itself
  • Fluency in the AI/ML landscape — the players, the discourse, and where it's headed
  • Have a bachelor's degree or equivalent in a related field to the offered position requirements

Pay

For this role, Inflection AI estimates a starting annual base salary to fall within the range of $180,000 to $280,000, depending on a candidate's qualifications and level of experience. This role also includes a meaningful equity component.

Benefits

  • Robust medical, dental and vision options with employer contributions for HSA, FSA and DFSA
  • 401k matching program
  • Flexible Time Off, 10 paid holidays, 5 days sick leave
  • Parental, Medical and Family care leave
  • Generous cell-phone, wellness and office set up stipends
  • Support of country-specific visa needs for international employees living in the Bay Area
