Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've owned product marketing + demand gen for B2B SaaS/fintech companies and built repeatable engines that generate real pipeline
  • You can write compelling positioning narratives and translate them into multi-channel campaigns that drive qualified leads
  • You thrive architecting GTM from scratch—setting strategy AND rolling up sleeves for execution (collateral, ops, analytics)
  • You're data-driven, obsessed with funnel analytics, and comfortable optimizing campaigns with lean tooling
  • You want equity upside and a clear path to Head of Marketing at a well-backed, scaling startup
Won't Work If
  • You're a 'strategy only' marketer who needs a big team to execute; this role requires hands-on content, campaigns, and ops work
  • You lack concrete B2B marketing experience or can't point to pipeline/revenue impact from your campaigns
  • You need remote flexibility; this is on-site SF, full stop
  • You're risk-averse or uncomfortable with ambiguity; early-stage means some decisions happen with incomplete data

Interview Process

1

Screening call

Brief conversation with recruiter or CSO about your B2B marketing track record and interest in fintech

2

Deep-dive interview

Conversation with CSO and/or co-founder on your GTM philosophy, positioning approach, and demand-gen playbooks

3

Case study / take-home

Likely a short assignment: craft positioning narrative or demand plan for a payments use case

4

Final round

Meet with CEO/leadership team to assess cultural fit and vision alignment for scaling the function
