Responsibilities

• Own creative execution across product launches, including launch videos, webpages, collateral, and campaign assets.

• Turn product features, workflows, and customer use cases into clear, compelling stories that resonate with technical and growth audiences.

• Support the development of ambitious creative programs, such as educational content, community initiatives, and branded programming.
• Work with partners, creators, influencers, and community members to expand brand awareness.

• Track performance, learn quickly from what works, and iterate with speed and taste.

Requirements

• 2-4 years of experience in growth, content, brand, product marketing, creative strategy, or a related creative role, ideally at a startup.
• Clear ownership of creative output, not just strategy or coordination.
• Demonstrable creative range across copywriting, short-form video, landing pages, social content, campaigns, or community programming.
• Strong portfolio, personal website, public body of work, side project, newsletter, social account, creative page, or other shipped work that shows real creative taste and execution.
• Strong storytelling instincts, with the ability to turn technical product details into narratives, not just feature lists.
• Comfortable using creative tools, including Figma or similar design tools, video editing tools, content platforms, and lightweight project management systems.
• Strong aesthetic judgment and attention to detail across every asset, from thumbnails and emails to slides and landing pages.
• Ability to manage multiple fast-moving projects without losing quality or momentum.
• Comfortable with outreach across social media, digital communities, partners, creators, and potential collaborators.
• Collaborative and able to work cross-functionally with product, engineering, sales, design, and leadership.
