Vice President of Marketing

Remote (Los Angeles strongly preferred)

ABOUT THE COMPANY

A post-Series C advanced manufacturing company out that has eliminated traditional tooling entirely. Using AI-driven robotics, they convert digital designs into precision metal parts in days — no dies, no molds, no legacy constraints. Backed by major defense primes and global automotive leaders. Already embedded in some of the most consequential programs in aerospace and defense and scaling fast. If you want to work on hard problems that actually matter — and see the things you market fly, drive, and defend — this is the place.

THE ROLE

The VP of Marketing is the first senior marketing hire. You inherit a small existing team and build from there. This is a brand-building opportunity at a company that has genuinely differentiated technology, a compelling story, and the funding and partnerships to scale — but hasn't yet built the marketing function to match its ambitions. Equal parts strategy and execution. The right person sets the vision and can still roll up their sleeves and make things happen without a large support structure around them.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

• Own company-level positioning, messaging architecture, and brand narrative — and keep it sharp as

the company scales

• Build bold, creative campaigns that introduce the company to new audiences — from aerospace and

defense to automotive and industrial

• Scale marketing capabilities across brand, content, PR, events, digital, and field marketing
• Lead, develop, and expand the existing marketing team — internal and outsourced
• Partner closely with BD, Sales, Product, and Executive Leadership on go-to-market strategy
• Drive awareness across strategic accounts, industry forums, and the broader innovation community

BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE

• 10+ years of progressive marketing leadership with VP-level responsibility or ready to step into it
• Proven track record of building or scaling a marketing function at a high-growth, Series B or C stage

company

• Bold, creative instincts — with visible proof. Past work that people noticed, talked about, and

remembered

• Experience owning positioning for complex, technical, or innovative products
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where strategy and execution are the same job
• Strong point of view on brand and the confidence to defend it

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Background in automotive, EV, advanced manufacturing, robotics, AI, or industrial technology
• Experience marketing to enterprise, government, or B2B audiences a plus
• Dual-use or defense-adjacent experience welcome but not required
• Los Angeles based strongly preferred
