Communications Lead
Higharc is a VC-backed startup that is changing how new homes are designed and built. Join a founding team who’ve shipped products for Autodesk, Electronic Arts, Nike, and Apple.
Help create the future of home design and construction.
We’re looking for our first marketing Communications Lead to help bring Higharc to market. The right fit has deep skills in media relations and recent experience with content marketing. This role will require someone who is an exceptional thinker/writer, has launched tech products, and can eventually manage a team of contributors to get things done. Working with our small but mighty team of engineers, architects, and builders, you'll be responsible for managing the outbound messaging and content for Higharc.
You’ll join a remote who’ve led teams at Autodesk, Electronic Arts, Nike, WeWork, and Apple. We’re backed by investors and advisors that include the founder of E Ink, the CPO of Adobe, and the designer of the Nest Thermostat.
About the Job:
The Communications Lead will drive awareness and generate demand among builders. You’ll leverage PR, events, and content marketing strategies as needed to bring Higharc to the US home building market. As one of our first marketing team members, you will get to wear many hats depending on your strengths and interests. We’re looking for passion and scrappiness with an ability to scale the team as needed.
Here are a few of the ways you might pitch in over the first three years:
Messaging and PR: Create a drumbeat with the trades and tier 1 and 2 national media. Build the messaging for who Higharc is now and for our vision of the future of homes and neighborhoods.
Pitch / Product launch: Translate product positioning and customer successes into compelling stories and events that resonate with our markets and the media.
Events and speaking ops: Develop a strategy for events and speaking opportunities. Ensure we address the needs of the media and our markets in novel and surprising ways.
About You:
We’re looking for someone with strong fundamentals in media relations and content marketing. We want to see that you’ve been a key part of bringing a product to market successfully -- ideally at a technology start-up.
You are passionate about homes, construction, or home design. You might have spent your early career agency-side or as a journalist. You've probably led global PR or marketing efforts for a big brand or late-stage start-up. You’re talking to us because you aren’t satisfied with the agency-side or the humdrum day-to-day of a bigco. You want to work on an ambitious product where regular people’s lives will change in a positive way and you want to roll up your sleeves to make a lasting impact.
Requirements:
Exceptional written and oral communication skills
Strong public speaking skills and ability to develop customer-facing presentations
Experience positioning and launching technology products
Strong aesthetic / design sensibility desired — interest in high quality design
5-10+ years of communications experience, agency experience is a plus

Experience in architecture, construction, or real estate
Previous experience at a VC-backed start-up
