Job Description :

Graphite builds consumer-quality tools for modern software engineering teams, so they can ship faster and create amazing products.

Our product

Graphite is the code review platform for the age of AI . Thousands of engineers at high-growth companies like Shopify, Datadog, Snowflake, Asana, and Ramp use Graphite on top of their GitHub repos every day to ship pull requests faster. Graphite takes best-in-class workflows and tooling from companies like Google and Meta and extends them to help engineers write and review code collaboratively with increasingly capable AI agents.

Our company

We're a small-but-mighty team of 40+ based in Manhattan in the heart of Soho, with a passionate and rapidly growing group of users at top engineering orgs like Datadog, Vercel, Ramp, and Snowflake.

We've raised a $52m Series B (featured in TechCrunch) led by Christine Esserman, following a previous $20m Series A from Peter Levine at Andreessen Horowitz (who led GitHub's Series A). Other investors include folks like Tom Preston-Werner (founder of GitHub), Sam Lambert (Planetscale CEO & ex-GitHub CTO), Sebastian Markbge (creator of React), and many more.

Our culture centers on putting people first, applying science and craft, practicing disciplined ambition, and giving ownership - both literally (with equity) and in the responsibility and scope you'll have as a part of our early team. Outside of work you'll find us brewing espresso drinks, producing music, or practicing yoga. We can't wait to see what you'll add to the mix!

About the role

Graphite's marketing lead will be responsible for developing our marketing strategy and messaging, executing on that strategy (personally at first, and then with a team), and iterating on it to maximize awareness of and interest in Graphite. This role will work closely with the CEO and the broader GTM team to create a cohesive outward-facing presence for Graphite that drives self-serve and enterprise customer signups.

Rethinking the way fast-moving software engineering teams write and review code every day is no small feat, and we believe that the best solutions are built when most talented, ambitious, and dedicated people with diverse backgrounds come together.

  • Scale the marketing organization with strong hires as Graphite grows

    • What we're looking for

  • Demonstrated success in B2B SaaS marketing, ideally at a company with a similar product-led sales motion and / or that builds a devtool
  • Deep understanding of marketing to engineers - must be technical enough to appreciate and communicate Graphite's product
  • Experience planning and executing on a successful marketing campaign end-to-end, across multiple channels

    • As a team, we're very aware of the systemic structural issues that have created inequalities for many communities, especially in the tech industry. We recognize that women and underrepresented minorities are statistically less likely to apply for a role that they feel unqualified for. If you are interested in this role but you're concerned about not meeting all requirements, we encourage you to apply anyway - we'd love to get to know you and see if there's a place for you here at Graphite!
