Senior Content Marketing Manager

What we're building
The marine industry supports recreation, global commerce, and national defense. And yet it runs on technology that hasn't meaningfully changed in fifty years. Until now.

Arc is on a mission to electrify the marine industry. We're rethinking powertrains, software, and vessel designs from first principles. And we're already executing. We started with consumers to develop and harden our core technology. We're now scaling production of our flagship model with new models and sectors on the horizon. Now we're extending our platform to commercial applications, starting with tugs, ferries, and defense, with years worth of signed contracts and a pipeline that spans every vessel type on the water.

The technology is proven, the momentum is building, and the opportunity is enormous. The marine industry is going electric and Arc is building the platform that powers it

Who we're looking for
Arc is looking for a Content Lead to define how the world sees electric maritime before the category catches up.

This is a builder's seat. You'll set the roadmap and ship the work yourself, partnering closely with Brand, Creative, and Growth leads. You'll have real range to work with: consumer owners who want to feel like they're driving the future and commercial partners who need to trust the engineering behind it. Same brand, two completely different conversations, and you're the one who makes both land.

The best person for this role has probably already done this once, at a company where the product was ahead of the market's ability to understand it, and where content wasn't a support function but part of how the company won. You know how to take something technical and make it feel inevitable. You publish, you watch what works, and you move fast on what doesn't.

This is a full-time, on-site role at our Torrance headquarters. You'll report to our Head of Marketing, working alongside a small, fast-moving team where the work is visible and it matters.

What You'll Do

Owning the editorial calendar and content roadmap end to end, from strategy to what actually ships

Setting the voice and point of view for Arc, and making sure it holds up whether you're talking to a boat owner or a commercial partner

Producing and directing content across every format: long-form, video, social, scripts, web, and campaign assets

Briefing and managing freelance contractors to keep quality high without slowing down

Partnering with Creative on production and with Brand on positioning, so content always reflects where the company is headed, not just what's next on the calendar

Shaping product marketing narrative, turning launches and technical milestones into stories people actually want to follow

Watching what performs and moving fast to do more of it

Minimum Qualifications

5+ years creating content for a brand with a technical, complex, or category-defining product

A portfolio that shows real range, sharp writing, strong creative direction, and at least a few pieces that actually broke through

Experience owning voice and editorial strategy for a brand across more than one audience, ideally spanning consumer and technical or B2B content

Strong editorial judgment, with the instinct to know what's worth shipping and what isn't

Experience directing and briefing freelance or contract talent, not just producing everything yourself

A bias for shipping. You publish, learn, iterate rather than wait for perfect

Comfortable moving fast in an environment where priorities shift and most people wear more than one hat

Bonus Qualifications

Experience in maritime, deep tech, or advanced hardware

Background at a company where the product was ahead of the market's understanding of it

Familiarity with premium consumer brands or EV

Comfortable pushing a fast but sustainable pace

Enthusiasm for boating and clean energy
