I just saw this job post on Hacker News, and thought I’d share it here on the off chance that someone reading this site is perfect for this opportunity.
We’re looking for someone to lead up marketing for Mixpanel. We’ve built the most advanced analytics platform available for mobile & the web – tools that allow you to dive deep into product usage patterns, understand conversion rates, and understand user retention. Nobody else comes close to our current offering.
Here are the facts:
- Revenue is in the millions
- We’re cash-flow positive
- We’ve raised $12M from top-tier investors: YC, Max Levchin (PayPal),
- Sequoia, and Andreessen Horowitz
- Example customers: BitTorrent, Path, Capcom, OkCupid, Jawbone
- We’re not interested in getting acquired. It’s go big or go home.
We’ve got engineering, product, and support under control. Once we have a customer, we keep them.
Now we need to grow. So far we’ve grown strictly through word-of-mouth. This is, of course, wonderful – but the time has come to really go to market.
This is where you come in. As the Director of Marketing for Mixpanel, you’ll take on things like:
- Owning both online and offline marketing channels
- Thinking of and executing on creative marketing campaigns
- Developing the voice and messaging of our company
- Building out a team of talented marketers
- Putting together events of all kinds – from meetups to conferences
We want you to help us build an incredible marketing organization from the ground up. If you haven’t done that yet, but you have all kinds of ideas, we’d love to talk to you. If you’ve been there, done that, and are ready to do it one more time, we’d love to talk to you. I think this will be a lot of fun.
If you agree, here’s what we’re looking for:
- Someone very creative. Doing what everyone else does is a recipe for failure. This one’s incredibly important to us.
- At least 5 years of experience in a marketing role. Experience building/leading teams is a big plus.
- Excellent writing skills – you’ll be marketer #1, which means you’ll be writing. A lot.
