Runloop•San Francisco, CA

About The Position

We’re hiring our first marketing hire to own the marketing function end-to-end. This is a hands-on role where you’ll develop a strategy and bring it to life in execution. The right person knows what good developer and enterprise marketing looks like. You’ve built marketing plans, are outcome-driven, run external partners to extend your output, and operate with real autonomy. You’re experienced enough to not need hand-holding, but not so senior that you’ve stopped doing the work yourself. You’re also a true collaborator. At this stage, marketing needs to work hand-in-hand with the founders, product, engineering, and sales, not operate in a silo.

Requirements

7-10 years of experience in product marketing, integrated campaigns, developer marketing, growth marketing, or equivalent functions.
Background in B2B developer tools, infrastructure, or cloud.
You understand how technical buyers evaluate and adopt products.
Strong communication skills and content instincts.
You can write well, edit sharply, and tell a compelling story about a technical product.
Proven experience managing complex and parallel projects with cross-functional teams and external agencies or contractors.
Comfort with both strategy and execution.
You can present the plan on Monday and ship the landing page on Wednesday.
Familiarity with the AI/ML ecosystem.
Genuine interest in how AI agents are changing how software gets built.
Experience in a startup or high-growth environment where you built things from scratch.
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area.
