Trunk.io
At Trunk, our mission is to help teams create high-quality software quickly. AI has made writing code 10x faster, but shipping is still painfully slow. The bottleneck has shifted downstream - to merge conflicts, flaky tests, inconsistent code quality, and dozens of other frictions that drain productivity and morale. Engineering teams that can stay focused on designing, implementing, and delivering software will build magical, high-quality projects - and they'll be happier doing it. We're building a CI Reliability Platform that empowers teams to land code faster and develop happier.
Our founders launched Trunk in 2021 after designing, delivering, and scaling software at Uber, Google, YouTube, and Microsoft. We raised a $25M Series A led by Initialized Capital (Garry Tan) and a16z (Peter Levine), with investments from Haystack Ventures, Garage VC, and the founders of GitHub (Tom Preston-Werner), Apollo GraphQL (Geoff Schmidt), Algolia (Nicolas Dessaigne), and Peopl.ai (Oleg Rogynsky).
We're looking for a marketing aficionado who thrives in the creative chaos of early-stage startups. You've built pipelines at a tech company before and loved the variety - producing customer success stories one day, coordinating events the next, rolling out ad campaigns the day after. As our sole marketing hire, you'll have the freedom to own the entire marketing function. If you're energized by the challenge of making developers care about tooling to increase their productivity and get a kick out of seeing your work directly move the revenue needle, this role is for you.
What you’ll do
Own the marketing strategy and execution
- Design and run campaigns across both bottom-up (developer-led, community) and top-down (enterprise ABM, executive messaging) motions. Drive pipeline from first touch through enterprise adoption.
Build enterprise demand generation
- Execute campaigns targeting large engineering orgs, create executive-level positioning for Directors/VPs/CTOs, and enable Sales with competitive intel, messaging, and materials that close deals.
Create technical content that converts
- Write and coordinate blogs, case studies, comparison pages, and documentation that educates developers and drives inbound traffic. Partner with DevRel and Product to tell authentic technical stories.
Optimize paid and organic acquisition
- Own the full funnel from awareness to SQL. Manage community sponsorships, paid campaigns, SEO, content distribution, and events. Set up attribution and kill what doesn’t work.
Launch products and be the cross-functional hub
- Own GTM for new releases. Work embedded with DevRel, Product, Engineering, and Sales to amplify technical content, shape roadmap with market insights, and build systems that make the whole company better at marketing.
We’re looking for
5-7+ years of B2B marketing experience
with at least 3 years of marketing to developers or technical audiences
Proven demand generation chops
- Track record of building and scaling acquisition funnels with measurable impact on pipeline and revenue
Exceptional writing for technical audiences
- Portfolio of blog posts, landing pages, or technical content that resonates with engineers (please share samples in application)
Resourceful executor with startup DNA
- You’ve thrived in lean environments where you’ve personally built landing pages, written ad copy, managed event logistics, created sales decks, and jumped in wherever needed to move the needle
Cross-functional collaboration
- Experience partnering with Product, Sales, and DevRel/Community teams in fast-moving environments
Nice to have
Built marketing at Series A-C stage startups - as an early hire
Worked in developer productivity categories (devtools, infrastructure, API) and understand developer workflows, pain points, and buying behavior
Managed agencies or contractors to extend your leverage
Technical background
Based in SF/Bay Area and comfortable with Pacific Time working hours
What we offer
Unlimited PTO
Competitive salary and equity
Work-life balance
Flexibility to be fully or partly remote
Up to $200/month stipend for coworking space for remote folks
Few meetings, so you can ship fast and focus on building
One Medical membership on us!
Top-notch medical, dental, vision, short-term disability, long-term disability, and life insurance
All insurance is 100% company-paid ($0 premiums) for employees and highly subsidized for dependents
FSA, HSA with company contributions, and pre-tax commuter benefits
401(k) plan
Paid parental leave ( up to 12 weeks)
The salary and equity range for this role are: $170K - $190K and .14% - .18%.
