About this role

The role:

At Mach9, the Head of Marketing will build the company’s first complete marketing system and define a new category in the infrastructure industry. We have a proven product, customers who rely on it, and a growing team; what we need now is a repeatable way to turn that momentum into market leadership.

This role is ideal for a marketing leader who knows how to step into a company at an inflection point and turn a deeply technical product into a clear market narrative—and turn that narrative into measurable pipeline.

You’ll evolve Mach9’s story from a product for surveyors into a broader platform for infrastructure work, establish marketing as a core driver of revenue growth, and make Mach9 impossible to ignore.

Where you will make an impact:

  • Define Mach9’s positioning, messaging, and category narrative across industries, customers, and top talent

  • Build a repeatable demand-generation system, identifying the channels and programs that drive qualified pipeline, demo requests, product sign-ups, usage, and expansion opportunities

  • Establish clear attribution and reporting, then own a quarterly marketing-sourced pipeline target alongside sales

  • Lead product marketing across launches, customer proof, and sales enablement

  • Build Mach9’s industry presence through events, partnerships, press, founder visibility, and customer advocacy

  • Lead and mentor a small in-house team, using AI, agencies, contractors, and creative partners to extend its reach

  • Partner closely with product and engineering to translate technical breakthroughs and features into compelling proof for our customers

What you bring:

  • 5+ years of marketing leadership experience (Director-level) at a fast-scaling tech company (Series A–C or equivalent growth stage)

  • Hands-on experience leading marketing for technical products (developer tools, generative AI), with content or campaigns tailored to technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Exceptional strength in product, content, and revenue marketing

  • Experience defining and instrumenting marketing measurement from the ground up, including pipeline attribution, funnel conversion, and channel ROI

  • Exceptional writing and editorial judgment across product messaging, campaigns, executive communications, and long-form content

  • Strong leadership + management skills and the ability to develop a small team while remaining personally involved in the work

  • Technical curiosity and a genuine interest in becoming a credible subject-matter expert alongside engineers, product leaders, and specialized customers

  • Expert at using AI to increase the quality and output of a lean marketing team.

Bonus experience (not required):

  • Prior work in geospatial, construction technology, robotics, industrial software, CAD, GIS, or infrastructure

  • Experience selling through channel partners, resellers, associations, or industry events

  • Experience building an engaged community program from the ground up
