Gen Marketer

Company Overview

We are building Protege to solve the biggest unmet need in AI — getting access to the right training data. The process today is time intensive, incredibly expensive, and often ends in failure. The Protege platform facilitates the secure, efficient, and privacy-centric exchange of AI training data.

Solving AI’s data problem is a generational opportunity. We’re backed by world-class investors and already powering partnerships with some of the most ambitious teams in AI. The company that succeeds will be one of the largest in AI — and in tech.

We’re a lean, fast-moving, high-trust team of builders who are obsessed with velocity and impact. Our culture is built for people who thrive on ambiguity, own outcomes, and want to shape the future of data and AI.

The Opportunity

This is the perfect role for a marketing generalist who uses their unique combination of marketing foundations (2+ of product, growth, content/brand, ecosystem), operational rigor, AI tools, and creative “taste” to produce and direct marketing campaigns that drive commercial results and brand recognition.

You won’t start from zero. You’ll report to an AI-pilled Head of Marketing, alongside a field marketing/events whiz who’s run 20+ events a quarter, a seasoned community builder, and engaged executives who are equally allergic to random acts of marketing. It’s a startup, so things are messy – but it’s not many our first 0-to-1 startup rodeo for most of us.

You’ll report to the Head of Marketing and work alongside startup veterans to give leverage to our existing growth channels and jumpstart new ones. Your job is to connect the Lego blocks—and build the missing ones.

Who You Are

Today, you’re someone who wants to be the “super IC” who combines the core marketing and growth fundamentals and first principles of the past decade and with the next gen marketing tools of today to drive outsized results.

You’re already experienced or familiar with the marketing waves the future — such as narrative new media, agentic workflows, cross-channel campaign building, community building, and IRL activations, to name a few — and you want to join a scaling AI company that recognizes the asymmetric advantage this gives those that ride the wave accordingly.

Tomorrow, you might be a future head of marketing, leader of a core marketing discipline, or found your own company or launch a brand where content is a core differentiator. In preparation for that future, you’re excited to join a place where you can build your own personal brand in tandem with a scaling AI business, with a team that’s invested in your development. You want to be pushed to do the best work of your life, while having the latitude for testing, developing, and scaling what that work could look like.

Signs you might be a great fit

You use next-gen tools without throwing out a decade of hard-won fundamentals: ie. know your audience, tell a story that matters, earn distribution, and measure what moves the business.

You care whether your campaigns make a direct impact on business results — not vanity metrics.

You love new media: you test new formats yourself, and you’re well versed in what hits online.

You tried all the AI tools – and figured out what works for you & your team’s workflow.

You’re a natural systems thinker at understanding how to combine different areas of marketing into a cohesive plan – you don’t hand things off to the expert, you expect to be the expert.

You have creative itches that show up unexpectedly, whether at work or in hobbies.

It’s not your first scaling startup experience - or not your first time starting something meaningful to you from scratch.

What You’ll Do

Own campaigns from idea to impact: brief, copy, landing page, distribution, follow-up, and results. Sometimes, the right-sized campaign should go live in a day. Other times, it takes weeks of careful preparation.

Make good stories travel. Turn product, research, executive, and community insights into social, email, new-media, and partner-channel content that people actually want. You’re not just in charge of the content or the distribution – it’s your job to make sure the right content reaches the right people.
