About the Role

PhoenixAI is looking for an experienced Field Marketing Manager to own our in-person event programs end-to-end. This is a senior, hands-on role for someone who has already managed high-stakes events at a tech startup — ideally in the data, infrastructure, or SaaS space — and understands how to allocate resources, manage vendors, and drive measurable outcomes. Events are a key growth channel for PhoenixAI. The current program includes a monthly technical meetup (in the Bay Area and other U.S. cities), quarterly executive receptions for key customers, and a presence at major industry conferences such as AWS re:Invent. Our events motion is anchored in the StarRocks open-source community, and this role works closely with DevRel and Community to turn that community into a recurring, high-quality in-person program. This person will define clear goals for each program, execute flawlessly, and report results back to the business.

• Build and run a monthly technical meetup program in the Bay Area and other cities, drawing speakers and co-hosts from the StarRocks community, customers, and partners, in close coordination with DevRel.
• Plan and host quarterly executive receptions for key customers in partnership with Sales and Customer Success, focused on relationship depth, expansion, and advocacy.
• Lead PhoenixAI's presence at major industry conferences and partner events (e.g., AWS re:Invent) — sponsorship selection, booth, speaking opportunities, and on-site execution.
• Leverage the open-source data ecosystem — community members, other project communities, local meetup organizers — to source speakers, co-hosts, and venues for our events.
