Head of Marketing

STRAND is real-time architecture mapping for engineering teams running service-heavy systems. The product maps every dependency, tracks every change, and surfaces blast radius before anything ships. The audience is engineering and platform teams at companies where infrastructure complexity is a real, daily problem. Reaching that audience and earning their attention requires a marketer who understands how they think. That is this role.

You will be STRAND's first marketing hire and you will build the function from the ground up. Positioning, content, demand generation, community presence, this role owns all of it. You work closely with the founding team and have direct input into how STRAND presents itself to the market.

What you will work on

• Define and sharpen STRAND's positioning and messaging for engineering and platform audiences.
• Build a content and distribution strategy that creates genuine reach within the engineering community.
• Own demand generation across organic and paid channels and build the pipeline data that gives sales what it needs.
• Drive product launch strategy in coordination with product, engineering, and developer relations.
• Build STRAND's presence in the communities where engineering teams discuss infrastructure, observability, and DevOps.
• Hire and lead a small marketing team as the function grows.

What we are looking for

• 7 or more years in B2B marketing with meaningful experience at a developer tool, infrastructure, or DevOps company.
• You understand the engineering buyer and know how to create content and campaigns that earn attention rather than interrupt it.
• Track record of building marketing programs from early stage that drove measurable pipeline and category presence.
• Strong writer. You can produce marketing copy that technical audiences find credible, not condescending.
• Data-driven across the full funnel. You track what matters and cut what does not.
• You have opinions about what great developer marketing looks like and the examples to back them up.

How we work

• Fully remote. Work from wherever you do your best work.
• Async by default. Meetings exist when they need to, not as a reflex.
• Small team. Your decisions ship. There is no committee.
• We move fast and cut anything that does not serve the outcome.

What we offer

• Competitive salary and equity with straightforward terms.
• Five weeks paid vacation plus local public holidays.
• Health coverage based on your location.
• Home office or co-working stipend.
• Four months paid parental leave.
• Regular team off-sites.
