Responsibilities

• The company narrative. A concise argument about what Lumafield is and why it matters, ready to engage with thoughtful reporters, enterprise buyers, and serious investors.
• Earned media. Company-level coverage in top-tier business and tech press, plus the journalist and creator scan-support work we already do well.
• The CEO platform and executive visibility. Ghostwriting, prep, booking, op-eds, podcasts, and stage time. Turn a few hours of our CEO’s time every week into visibility and engagement.
• Speaking and conference placement. Get us on the programs and panels that matter in physical AI, advanced manufacturing, and defense-industrial tech, and recruit top-tier guests when we host panel discussions at our event space.
• Owned editorial. Provide direction for the Go/No-Go podcast and First Article: maintain the theses, book guest interviews, and make them drive our business.
• Creative direction, brand, and website experience. You'll direct our video and social media programs and set the bar for how the brand looks and sounds.
• The team. Two experienced, high-performance direct reports and the opportunity to hire a third immediately.

Requirements

• Successful candidates will likely have at least 10 years of experience, but we’re open to exceptional candidates who are earlier in their careers.
• Published work you personally made.
• Media relationships you built yourself.
• Evidence you can learn a hard technical domain.
• Effective management.

Preferred

• Bonus points: You've been the voice behind a founder or executive, drafting in their voice and creating a platform.
• Bonus points: You've built an owned media property–a podcast, newsletter, publication, or recurring report–that found an audience.
• Bonus points: You already have access in the physical AI, advanced manufacturing, or defense-industrial world: the conference producers, podcast hosts, and panel organizers who decide which voices to showcase.

Benefits

• All employees receive stock options in addition to salary.
• Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage and a 401(k).
