About this role

Chalk is building the data platform that powers the future of machine learning applications, tearing down complexity, latency, and scale barriers. As Field Marketing Manager, you'll bring our platform to life for technical audiences, reporting to our VP Marketing. You'll establish Chalk's presence at key industry conferences while creating signature events that bring the ML community together.

You'll craft and execute event strategy, from identifying conferences to designing standout presence and hosting Chalk-branded meetups, talks, and workshops. Own the complete event lifecycle, including budget allocation, multi-channel promotion, on-site logistics, and post-event follow-up. Build genuine connections in the developer ecosystem that convert to pipeline.

Partner with Developer Advocacy to align events with community-building and business objectives. Collaborate with Sales during field programs to accelerate deals and generate qualified opportunities. Build strategic relationships with event organizers and developer communities, experimenting with creative formats to break through at crowded events.

If you know the difference between an empty marketing event and one that moves technical audiences, join our early-stage startup. Gain experience building event programs from the ground up in AI/ML tooling. Travel domestically up to 30% while enjoying comprehensive benefits and equity.
