About the Role

Convex is a backend platform designed to empower developers to create fast, reliable, and dynamic applications without a dedicated backend team. We offer a full-stack app platform with database, compute, and backend abstractions, enabling rapid development and scalable, simple products.

Responsibilities

  • Own Convex marketing end to end: positioning, launches, content, community, events, and brand.
  • Decide what we don't do, focusing on the two or three most important motions.
  • Work directly with founders to refine their points of view into excellent marketing.
  • Build and lead a small, excellent marketing team over time, performing the work yourself until the team exists.
  • Set a high quality bar for all marketing materials, avoiding hype and generic content.
  • Ship innovative marketing that defies expectations for a database company.

Requirements

  • A track record of marketing leadership at a technical or developer-facing company with demonstrable results.
  • Genuine excellence in at least one marketing discipline (product marketing, brand, content, or community).
  • Judgment to hire individuals with expertise in areas outside of your own.
  • Experience working directly with founders, possessing the confidence to push back and the ability to execute on founder conviction.
  • Comfort being hands-on, capable of setting strategy and executing tasks like writing.
  • A strong ability to differentiate between substance and hype.
  • Interest in working in-person at Convex's office in San Francisco.
  • Deep understanding of developers and their evaluation process for products.
  • Ability to prioritize ruthlessly and focus on key marketing initiatives.
  • Directness and the ability to build trust with founders.
  • A constructive, positive, and energetic approach to work.
