Job Summary

Lead Spur’s field-defining content engine and category creation, shaping messaging, positioning, and digital presence across channels while partnering with sales to drive revenue. You will own the content strategy, publishing workflow, customer storytelling, and category narrative, from ideation to measurement.

  • Own content, publishing, and category narrative
  • Drive SEO, website, and cross-channel storytelling
  • Collaborate with sales and leadership to accelerate revenue

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own Spur’s content and point of view
  • Develop a distinctive content strategy that makes Spur a must-follow company for leaders across e-commerce, product, engineering, and QA.
  • Turn customer insights, product expertise, market trends, and original ideas into compelling content across LinkedIn, the Spur website, customer stories, thought leadership, and other channels.
  • Build a consistent publishing engine from ideation through writing, editing, distribution, and measurement.
  • Partner closely with Sneha and the team to turn their expertise and customer conversations into content that earns attention.
  • Develop customer stories that turn Spur’s existing roster of marquee brands into powerful proof points.
  • Build the category
  • Help establish validation systems as a new category and position Spur as the company defining it.
  • Develop messaging and narratives that expand the market’s understanding of Spur beyond traditional QA and testing.
  • Own how Spur communicates its differentiation as AI changes both how software is built and how buyers discover products.

Requirements

  • You have roughly 5–8 years of marketing experience, ideally in B2B SaaS, e-commerce technology, AI, or another fast-moving technology company.
  • You’ve been an early marketing hire, a #1 or #2 marketer at a startup, or a highly autonomous individual contributor who’s ready to own the function.
  • You’re an exceptional writer and storyteller. You can take a complex technical product and turn it into a clear, compelling idea people remember.
  • You are deeply interested in content and distribution. You don’t believe great content ends when you hit “publish.”
  • You understand modern SEO and how discovery is evolving through AI tools and GEO.
  • You’re comfortable with growth and performance marketing fundamentals and can run experiments yourself or effectively manage specialists when needed.
  • You know how to partner closely with sales and think about marketing as a revenue driver, not a separate brand function.
  • You’re analytical enough to measure what’s working without needing perfect attribution before making a decision.
  • You’re comfortable moving between strategy and execution. You might define Spur’s category narrative in the morning and rewrite a landing page yourself that afternoon.
  • You thrive in the ambiguity and pace of an early-stage startup and would rather create the playbook than inherit one.

Preferred

  • Bonus points if you’ve marketed to e-commerce or consumer brands and already speak the language of the customers we serve.
