About Zeno AI
Zeno AI helps people rehearse high-stakes conversations before they happen.
We launched in May 2026 with a voice-based AI interviewer that runs realistic mock interviews, scores candidates with recruiter-grade rigor, and gives concrete coaching tied to specific moments in the conversation.
Today, over 200 candidates and a handful of companies use Zeno. We’re starting with interview prep, but the broader vision is to help people prepare for any high-stakes conversation: sales pitches, fundraising calls, negotiations, performance reviews, podcasts, panels, and more.
About the Role
We’re hiring a Founding Marketer to help define Zeno’s voice, grow our user base, and turn early traction into a repeatable acquisition engine.
You’ll work directly with the founders on positioning, content, growth experiments, partnerships, social media, email campaigns, and community distribution. This is a high-ownership role for someone who wants to build the marketing function from zero at an early-stage AI company.
You should be comfortable moving fast, testing scrappy channels, writing sharp copy, and figuring out what actually gets job seekers, students, professionals, recruiters, and companies to try Zeno. We care less about perfect credentials and more about whether you can create momentum, communicate clearly, and help us find repeatable growth.
What You’ll Do
Develop Zeno’s messaging, positioning, and brand voice across audiences
Create and test marketing campaigns for job seekers, students, professionals, recruiters, and companies
Own content across LinkedIn, TikTok, Instagram, X, Reddit, newsletters, blogs, and other relevant channels
Write landing page copy, email campaigns, launch posts, ad copy, user stories, and product explainers
Run growth experiments across communities, schools, job-search groups, Slack/Discord channels, and professional networks
Help build partnerships with universities, career centers, student groups, recruiting communities, bootcamps, and hiring teams
Turn user stories, interview insights, and product moments into compelling content
Analyze campaign performance, conversion funnels, signups, activation, and retention
Work with the founders to test paid ads, influencer campaigns, referral loops, and outbound campaigns
Help create demo videos, product walkthroughs, short-form clips, and educational content
Own marketing projects end-to-end, from idea to execution to iteration
Help define the marketing culture, growth rhythm, and public voice of the company

Ability to understand users and translate their pain points into clear, compelling messaging

Analytical mindset and comfort using data to decide what to double down on
Ability to work independently with high ownership and low ego

Nice to Have

Experience with university distribution, student groups, recruiting communities, bootcamps, or professional organizations
Strong understanding of job seekers, interview prep, recruiting, sales enablement, or professional development
Previous startup, founder, creator, or growth experience
Comfort working with AI tools to create content, analyze performance, and speed up execution
