Key responsibilities

• Developing and maintaining core company and product narratives
• Translating technical concepts into clear, externally facing messaging
• Creating high-quality content across formats (written, video, demos, launches)
• Supporting frequent product launches (weekly cadence) with structured messaging and assets
• Owning and evolving brand positioning across website, product, and external channels
• Driving distribution through organic, social, and PR channels

Candidate Profile

The role is open to candidates across a range of seniority (typically 4+ years’ experience), with a focus on demonstrated execution capability.

Two common profiles are expected:

• Narrative / Creative Focus

• Experience driving reach through content, launches, and media
• Strong understanding of channels, timing, and amplification strategies
