The posting

The Role:

Helogen is hiring a Founding Marketing Lead in Los Angeles to build and own our marketing function. This is a rare opportunity to help position Helogen as one of the defining companies of the space industrialization era. You'll be joining a small team of high-caliber engineers, scientists, builders, and operators united by the belief that the microgravity environment of space represents one of the greatest untapped opportunities in the history of medicine and industry. We value execution over perfection, clarity over complexity, and ownership over handholding. We move quickly, learn fast, and adapt as the company evolves.

This is a role for an entrepreneurial generalist who brings creative ambition without preciousness, strong opinions without ego, and has a deep respect for the technical and commercial complexity of what we are building. As the founding member of Helogen’s marketing team, your work will shape not just how Helogen is perceived, but what it becomes.

The Founding Marketing Lead will report to the Chief Commercial Officer.

Responsibilities:

- Own and evolve Helogen's core company narrative; translate complex concepts across space systems, biotechnology, automation, and orbital manufacturing into a clear and compelling story for customers, investors, partners, media, and talent

- Partner with Commercial team to create collateral, including customer decks, mission briefs, vertical narratives, capability overviews, case studies, conference materials, and partner-facing assets

- Lead thought-leadership content development and run the marketing and content distribution engine that supports our next stage of growth

- Manage external PR, creative, and design partners

- Develop our event and market presence strategy

- Develop marketing processes that permeates across all functions of the company

- Measure and analyze insights to improve how Helogen shows up in the world

What We're Looking For:

- Requirements:

- You have 5+ years of professional experience in marketing, branding, communications, content, growth, product marketing, or a related function, preferably within an early-stage or high-growth startup

- Experience building marketing programs in environments where resources are limited, priorities shift quickly, and systems are being created from scratch

- You’re equally comfortable setting strategy and executing the work

- Strong visual and creative instincts; you recognize how great design looks and can provide useful, actionable creative direction and feedback

- You understand how to build a category, support fundraising efforts, create market momentum, and make complex technology legible to diverse audiences

- Comfort partnering directly with founders and executives and turning raw ideas into polished public-facing content

- Experience managing external agencies or freelancers across PR, design, creative, content, or production

- Highly organized and detail-oriented; you can manage competing deadlines, launches, agencies, content calendars, and internal stakeholders simultaneously

- Resourceful and self-directed with high ownership, urgency, and accountability

- Preferred Qualifications:

- BA/BS/MBA in a relevant field

- Experience in high-growth startups in sectors such as consumer health, frontier tech, space, climate, defense tech, robotics, AI, hardware, deep tech, or advanced manufacturing is strongly preferred

- You’ve previously worked in a company like WHOOP, Oura, Levels, Ramp, Peloton, Anduril, Hadrian, Axiom, Vast, Relativity, Arc, Astranis, Ginkgo, Benchling, or another high-growth company with a strong narrative, technical product, and ambitious market vision

- An exceptional writer and storyteller, you can distill complex technical concepts into clear, compelling language that makes a company, product, or category feel important, differentiated, and timely

Compensation:

The salary range for this position is $160,000-210,000 with equity offered.

Benefits:

- Unlimited PTO

- Health, dental, vision and life insurance

- 401(k) program

- Membership to OneMedical

- Be part of creating something new that will change the world

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
