What You’ll Lead

Partner closely with the CEO and executive team on positioning, messaging, and executive communications

Own public relations strategy and cultivate relationships with top-tier business, technology, healthcare, and industry media

Build executive thought leadership programs and identify opportunities to shape industry conversations

Lead storytelling around customers, company milestones, partnerships, technology, and market trends

Develop high-impact content across thought leadership, reports, articles, digital media, video, and other channels

Strengthen the company’s social media presence and executive visibility

Support internal and high-stakes corporate communications

Build and develop the marketing and communications function as the organization continues to scale

Who We’re Looking For
The ideal candidate will bring approximately 10+ years of experience in corporate communications, marketing, PR, or a related discipline , ideally within enterprise technology, B2B software, healthcare technology, or another complex industry.

Strong candidates will have:

Deep experience in corporate communications, PR, earned media, brand positioning, and executive thought leadership

A proven track record of securing meaningful media coverage and building strong relationships with journalists and industry influencers

Exceptional writing, messaging, and storytelling skills

The ability to translate complex technology into clear, differentiated, compelling narratives

Experience advising CEOs and senior executives

Strong judgment in sensitive or high-stakes communications

A proactive, strategic mindset combined with a willingness to be hands-on

Experience building or leading teams and external agency relationships

Healthcare experience is a significant plus, but not required.

The company has a strong preference for someone based in the San Francisco Bay Area due to the close partnership with the CEO and leadership team, although exceptional candidates in other markets will be considered.

The search is currently positioned at the Sr. Director/VP level, with flexibility in scope and seniority for an exceptional candidate.
