At  AVIAN , our mission is clear: we stop fires before they start. Our infrared camera systems and AI-driven monitoring help industrial companies detect abnormal heat early, prevent fire risk, protect assets, and avoid costly downtime. We have reached product-market fit. We have the product, the proof, and strong customer demand. Now we need the marketing engine. As Marketing Lead, your mission is to build an AI-forward marketing function that helps AVIAN scale to $10M+ ARR. This is not a traditional marketing role. We are not trying to hire a large team or manage a network of agencies. We want one exceptional operator using AI agents, automation, and sharp positioning to do the work of a small team.

You will: Build AVIAN’s AI-forward marketing operating model from the ground up. Own LinkedIn, founder-brand content, and high-signal thought leadership for industrial fire prevention, insurance, and manufacturing. Use AI workflows to create programmatic content at scale across customer stories, vertical pages, SEO/AIO pages, outbound assets, and sales enablement.

Build and manage lean growth experiments across paid, organic, email, content, and partner channels. Work closely with sales to convert marketing activity into qualified pipeline and revenue. Track what works, cut what does not, and build repeatable systems. This is a hands-on IC role. You will write, build, automate, launch, analyze, and improve.

Proven track record building pipeline in a startup or scale-up environment. Evidence of agentic AI workflows in production, not just prompting or experimentation.

Public evidence of an AI-native marketing point of view, such as writing, side projects, GitHub, Loom walkthroughs, shipped tools, or documented workflows.
