Job summary

Faros seeks a senior content leader to own the strategy and roadmap for our technical content, shaping what we publish and how the portfolio compounds over time.

You will build data-driven reports, partner with engineering and data teams, run the content calendar, and write editorials that give Faros a distinct point of view while tying content to measurable pipeline.

Qualifications

• 6+ years in content, editorial, or research roles for a technical audience, with real ownership of what got published.
• You've shipped a research report or benchmark study with your name on it.
• Experience at early-stage startups where you were the marketing infrastructure and could ship without a team behind you.
• You have fluency with data and can interrogate a dataset with the people who built it, spotting the finding worth leading with.
• Strong, fast writing in an engineer's register; writing samples required.
• You've owned a content program with strategy, calendar, and the judgment about what not to publish.
• You can connect content to revenue: you've defined what success looks like and answered for it.

Responsibilities

• Own the strategy and roadmap for our content: what we publish, when, and how the portfolio compounds over time
• Build a collection of data-driven reports, starting from our AI Engineering report, and own each one from concept and methodology through writing and launch
• Partner with our engineering and data teams to find the stories in the data and land claims that survive a technical audience
• Run the content calendar around each report: the findings, charts, and short-form pieces built to be cited by people and AI engines
• Write the editorial pieces that give Faros a point of view: field guides, frameworks, and arguments the market doesn't have yet, gated where they fuel demand gen
• Define how content attaches to pipeline, and own that scorecard with demand gen and marketing ops
• Hold the line on how Faros writes about data: precise, quantified, engineer-to-engineer
