WHOM WE'RE LOOKING FOR

We're looking for a Marketing Manager with a strong SMM & PR focus to own our external voice and build credibility in a highly technical cybersecurity domain. This is a hands-on, high-impact role with real ownership over brand voice, visibility, and thought leadership.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own and execute SMM & PR strategy aligned with business goals

• Build and manage content and media plans across LinkedIn, X/Twitter, blog, and website

• Create technical content — turning security research, product features, and engineering work into deep, credible material (technical blog posts, breakdowns, explainers) that resonates with a practitioner audience, not just general marketing copy

• Create clear, engaging content around cybersecurity, AI, and product updates

• Identify trends, news hooks, and PR opportunities in cyber & AI

• Support conference presence, including announcements, live coverage, and post-event content

• Collaborate directly with founders, product, sales, and design

• Build relationships with media, partners, and communities

• Track performance, prepare monthly reports, and optimize based on metrics

MUST-HAVE EXPERIENCE

• 3+ years of experience in Marketing, PR, or SMM

• Proven experience promoting IT, cybersecurity, or deep-tech products

• Demonstrated ability to write technical content (e.g. technical blog posts, whitepapers, or deep-dive explainers) — not just top-level marketing copy

• Strong SMM track record with real cases of growing a targeted audience

• Experience working with international or top-tier tech media (e.g. TechCrunch, WIRED, VentureBeat, The Verge, WSJ, Fortune)

• Hands-on experience using AI tools for content and marketing workflows

• Excellent English copywriting skills

• Ability to translate complex technical topics into clear, credible messaging

• Ability to organize lightweight marketing ops, including content calendar, contractors, and timelines

• Proactive, ownership-driven mindset; comfortable operating in an early-stage startup

• LinkedIn, X/Twitter, company blog and website
