Content Marketing Lead

Who we’re looking for

• You've shipped content that got traction. A newsletter with real subscribers. Blog posts that hit the front page. Technical content that developers actually shared. Show us.
• You write for engineers. Not "thought leadership" that sounds like a press release. Technical, specific, mechanism-first writing that respects the reader's intelligence. You can explain how a retrieval-augmented system works without dumbing it down or puffing it up.
• You code enough to automate your own workflow. Vibe coding, scripting, AI-assisted development – you build tools for yourself. A distribution pipeline that runs on a schedule. A draft generator that pulls from a git log. You treat content ops as infrastructure, not manual labor.
• AI workflows are your production method. You use AI tools daily to produce at volume. You have opinions about prompting, output quality, when to override, when to trust. You don't produce everything by hand – you produce at scale with taste.
• You think in distribution, not just creation. You know what Hacker News rewards (problem-first, no self-promotion). You know what LinkedIn's algorithm favors. You know how to get a piece cited by AI systems. Publishing without distributing is not shipping.
• You own the number. Not "I wrote the thing and someone else measured it." You care whether the piece drove signups, got cited, ranked, earned backlinks. You close the loop.

What you’ll do

• Write and produce technical content for an audience of senior engineers and engineering leads – mechanism-dense, fact-backed, no filler
• Distribute every piece across owned channels (site, email, newsletter) and external platforms (Hacker News, dev.to , LinkedIn, Reddit) on the same day it publishes
• Manage social presence across accounts – draft posts, queue them, keep slots filled
• Own SEO/GEO and AI visibility metrics – track what gets cited, what ranks, what compounds
• Run Google Ads – set up campaigns, manage budget, measure against pipeline
• Book founders on podcasts and external content opportunities
• Build example repos and demo projects via vibe coding when a piece needs a working artifact
• Build and maintain the production pipeline – automate draft generation, distribution, scheduling, reporting
