Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Lead creation of case studies and technical proof points that demonstrate product value to mechanical engineering audiences.
  • Collaborate with Product and Engineering to translate complex technical wins into persuasive narratives for customers and prospects.
  • Own customer onboarding materials, anticipating technical friction points during early adoption.
  • Create sales enablement assets — including POC guides, Champion Kits, and master decks — that convert technically skeptical prospects.
  • Maintain post-sales knowledge resources, including a product knowledge base and step-by-step product guides.
  • Draft 2–3 deep-dive technical blog posts per quarter and contribute to newsletter copy in partnership with the Growth team.
  • Act as the internal lead for website messaging and help evolve product positioning over time.
  • Support webinars and demand-generation efforts with engineering-first content and technical credibility.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (dealbreaker requirement).
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience working as a mechanical engineer, with direct familiarity with ME workflows and pain points.
  • Demonstrated ability to document and structure technical content with measurable impact — outcomes, numbers, and ownership over final content form.
  • Proven ability to translate complex mechanical engineering problems into customer-facing explanations for both engineers and executives.

Preferred

  • Experience producing technical content for engineering audiences (case studies, onboarding guides, champion kits, proof-of-concept materials).
  • Experience creating content for website evolution, webinars, and demand-generation assets.
  • MBA or demonstrated business acumen connecting technical depth to bottom-line business value.
  • Experience enabling engineering customers through technical guides and knowledge base content.
  • Formal product marketing experience (a plus, not required).
  • Mindset: Proof-obsessed: you prefer "show, don't tell" and take ownership over content performance.
  • Strong examples of technical writing, documentation, or presentations that communicate engineering concepts and real-world impact.

Benefits

  • Salary: $130,000 – $200,000 USD annually, depending on experience.
  • Competitive benefits package typical of a well-funded early-stage tech company.
  • Visa sponsorship: Not available for this role.
