Job description

About Alex

Alex was just named to the CB Insights AI 100 of 2026, the 100 most promising AI startups in the world. We're building the future of hiring: our AI recruiter conducts live job interviews, giving companies deeper hiring signal faster than ever. We work with some of the most respected brands in the world and have raised $20M to date.

About the Role

Our revenue is scaling faster than our brand – and we need someone to close the gap. As Special Projects, you'll run strategic projects that directly affect company success - regardless of which domain they fall in.

This isn't the role for someone who needs a big team, set processes, or endless budget. We need someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves lightning fast, and knows how to turn ideas into campaigns and into outcomes.

This role reports to the Head of Operations and is based in office in San Francisco.

What You’ll Do

• Own positioning and messaging across every customer-facing surface: website, sales decks, product one-pagers, launch announcements.

• Own the category narrative. Define how the market understands agentic AI recruiting, why we lead it, and how we're different from everyone claiming the same thing.

• Turn customers into proof. Build the case studies, testimonials, and stories that make Alex a no-brainer for Fortune 500 talent teams – and run the customer marketing programs around them.

• Drive enterprise demand. Partner with sales to build the campaigns, content, and field presence (events, webinars, trade shows) that generate qualified pipeline.

• Make every launch land. Run go-to-market for new products and features so they drive value for our customers and prospects.

• Measure what moves the needle. Track what's resonating across channels, cut what isn't, and use AI to ship like a team several times your size.

About You

We care more about what you can do than where you came from. Some traits we look for:

• 3-5 years in biz ops, growth, product marketing, or related at a B2B SaaS or AI startup.

• Range – you can work demand gen, PMM, brand; you're not a single-channel specialist.

• A sharp writer who turns technical complexity into memorable stories.

• A track record you can point to – pipeline, traffic, rankings, or conversions you generated.

• Owner mentality – you drive outcomes, operate independently, communicate directly, and always keep the company’s best interests in mind.

• Ability to own a budget and defend where spend goes.

What am I waiting for?

If you’ve gotten this far and building from zero-to-one excites you, we want you to apply. Your first conversation will be with Alex, our AI recruiter.
