Build the Growth Engine Behind Emerging Technology

Roko Labs
is looking for an entrepreneurial
Founding GTM Strategy Lead
to help define how we position, market, and grow our AI, software engineering, and digital transformation business.

This is not a traditional marketing role. You'll work directly with company leadership, engineers, and client-facing teams to transform complex technical solutions into compelling stories, market positioning, and growth opportunities.

If you're excited by technology, AI, product strategy, and building something from the ground up, this is an opportunity to own a function rather than a small piece of one.

What You'll Do

  • Develop positioning, messaging, and go-to-market strategies that clearly communicate Roko Labs' value.
  • Partner with engineers and leadership to translate technical capabilities into business outcomes for customers.
  • Create thought leadership, case studies, presentations, sales materials, and market-facing content.
  • Build and test growth initiatives, demand generation campaigns, and new customer acquisition strategies.
  • Use AI and emerging technologies to automate workflows, improve efficiency, and accelerate marketing impact.
  • Gather customer and market insights to strengthen messaging and identify new opportunities.

What We're Looking For

  • 1-5 years of experience in Product Marketing, GTM Strategy, Growth Marketing, Technology Consulting, SaaS, Startup Operations, or a related field.
  • Exceptional writing, communication, and storytelling skills.
  • Ability to understand technical products and communicate their value to business audiences.
  • Strong curiosity around AI, software, technology, and emerging trends.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with a bias toward action and experimentation.
  • Experience using AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or similar platforms.
  • Evidence that you've built, launched, grown, or taken ownership of something meaningful.

Ideal Backgrounds

  • Product Marketing
  • GTM Strategy
  • Growth Marketing
  • Technical Marketing
  • Solutions Consulting
  • Founder's Associate
  • Startup Operations
  • Technology Consulting

Why Roko Labs?

  • Build a marketing and growth function from the ground up.
  • Work directly with company leadership and influence strategy.
  • Gain exposure to AI, software engineering, product development, and emerging technologies.
  • High autonomy, ownership, and visibility.
  • Competitive compensation plus equity participation.

We're looking for a builder who can bridge technology and business, turning complex engineering work into compelling market opportunities while helping shape the next phase of growth at Roko Labs.
