Job Description

About Rime

At Rime AI, we're on a mission to make voice AI feel more human. Our deep linguistic and machine learning expertise helps bridge the gap between humans and machines, driving millions of dollars in ROI for enterprise-scale voice agents.

Backed by top VCs, including Unusual Ventures, Rime is at a pivotal early growth stage and looking for our first full-function Head of Marketing, a marketing leader who can both architect and execute our go-to-market engine from the ground up.

What You'll Do

As Head of Marketing, you'll own the full spectrum of marketing, from brand to performance, accelerating growth and shaping Rime's position in the dynamic voice AI market. You'll be both strategist and doer, laying the foundation for a growing team.

Your responsibilities include:

  • Product Marketing & Positioning - Lead go-to-market strategy for product launches, crafting compelling messaging, positioning, and collateral for enterprise audiences.
  • Brand & Positioning - Strengthen and evolve Rime's brand identity and voice, leading a thoughtful refresh that amplifies differentiation and credibility.
  • Event Marketing - Own Rime's presence at conferences, meetups, dinners, hackathons, and other events, managing sponsorships, speaking engagements, booth strategy, and lead follow-up.
  • Social & Content - Drive Rime's social media (LinkedIn, X, industry, and developer forums) and content strategy, creating high-quality assets (website, blog, white papers, case studies, tutorials) with engaging, channel-optimized copy.
  • Email Marketing - Develop lifecycle workflows (onboarding, product nurture, upsell) and outbound campaigns targeting developers, partners, and enterprise buyers.
  • Performance, Search & AI Marketing - Experiment with and scale additional high-impact marketing channels, including newsletter sponsorships, paid acquisition, SEO, and emerging AI-driven search strategies.
  • Community - Grow Rime's online and in-person communities of practitioners, partners, and advocates.
  • Marketing Operations & Technology - Partner closely with the CEO, VP of Revenue, and Head of Growth to refine Rime's marketing stack, measurement frameworks, and automation systems.
Who You Are
  • A marketing generalist - who's both strategic and hands-on, with the ability to lead across functions (product, brand, performance, events).
  • A T-shaped or π-shaped marketer with deep expertise in one or two core areas and curiosity across the rest.
  • Energized by enterprise-focused B2B marketing and product-led growth.
  • A strong writer and storyteller who can translate complex technical and business concepts into clear, compelling narratives.
  • Data-driven and experimental, skilled at testing ideas, optimizing channels, and managing budgets effectively.
  • Thrive in an early-stage, fast-moving startup where you wear many hats and build from zero to one.
  • Excited to build a marketing team, define playbooks, and set scalable processes as the company grows.
  • Genuinely interested in linguistics and machine learning, and motivated by our mission to make voice AI more human.
What We Offer
  • A collaborative, innovative environment at the cutting edge of voice AI.
  • Full health benefits (medical, dental, vision).
  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity package.
  • Opportunity to shape Rime's marketing foundation and influence company trajectory.
  • Beautiful office in the heart of San Francisco, close to public transit.

If you're excited to define the future of Voice AI and build a world-class marketing function from the ground up, we'd love to hear from you.
