Partner with engineering and product to translate complex ideas into compelling narratives for technical audiences
Represent Gensyn externally — in content, at conferences, and in developer communities
Manage marketing budgets and resources to maximize reach, adoption, and impact
Define success metrics and own performance across all marketing verticals

Competencies

Strong cross-functional collaborator who builds trusted relationships, fosters open communication, and drives alignment across teams
Deep understanding of developer audiences and technical products
Strong communication skills with the ability to turn complex technical ideas into clear, engaging content
Exceptional organizational and project management skills

Data-driven mindset with hands-on experience in digital and performance marketing tools

Previous success building a brand in a frontier tech space

Compensation / Benefits

Competitive salary + share of equity and token pool
Fully remote work (we currently hire between the West Coast (PT) and Central Europe (CET) time zones)
Visa sponsorship available for those who would like to relocate to the US after being hired
3–4x all-expenses-paid company retreats around the world per year
Whatever equipment you need
Paid sick leave and flexible vacation
Company-sponsored health, vision, and dental insurance — including spouse/dependents (🇺🇸 only)

Our Principles

Autonomy & Independence

Don’t ask for permission — we have a constraint culture, not a permission culture
Claim ownership of any work stream and set its goals/deadlines, rather than waiting to be assigned work or relying on job specs
Push & pull context on your work rather than waiting for information from others
Communicate to be understood rather than expecting others to work to understand it
Stay a small team — misalignment and politics scale super-linearly with team size

Rejection of Mediocrity & High Performance

Give direct feedback immediately rather than avoiding unpopularity
Embrace an extreme learning rate
Don’t quit — push to the final outcome despite barriers
Be anti-fragile — balance short-term risk for long-term outcomes
Reject waste — guard the company’s time, avoid meetings without clear purpose/focus, and resist bikeshedding
