The RoleThis is a communications architecture role, building, not just managing. The foundational disciplines, narrative development, relationship building, message architecture, media strategy, are table stakes. What we are hiring for is someone who can build the model that AI-native companies aspire to, and that does not yet fully exist.
The old playbook, press releases, managed spokesperson quotes, quarterly media cycles, was designed for a world where information moved slowly and trust was conferred by institutions. That model does not work here. We are looking for someone who knows that and has a point of view on what replaces it.
You will report operate as a senior strategic partner, and own the communications function end-to-end: narrative, press, executive voice, owned content, cross-functional alignment, and issues management. You will build the team and the system as the company scales.
What You Will Own- Corporate narrative and positioning: message architecture, audience-specific narrative tracks, and the discipline to hold consistency across a fast-moving company
- The communications system: editorial calendar, media strategy, social strategy, campaign planning, content production, agency management, and performance measurement
- Maximizing for positive reach and positioning across the press and media channels we care about most
- Executive communications: building a durable CEO voice across LinkedIn, X, podcasts, speaking, and long-form writing, as a repeatable system rooted in genuine conviction
- Audience translation: distinct narrative tracks for developers, consumers, enterprise buyers, press, and recruits, each tuned in depth and frame of reference without diluting the substance
- Understanding and building a targeted relationship with emerging media: podcasts, newsletters, streaming shows, creators that blur the lines between influencers and media.
- Leverage AI to rethink / speed up conventional PR workflows, reporting, dashboards, coverage tracking, competitive intelligence, etc.
- Cross-functional partnership: embedded communications input in product launches, investor narrative, and partnership strategy
- Competitive intelligence: a standing practice that informs narrative planning and keeps Wispr Flow ahead of the category conversation
- Reputation and issues management: proactive scenario planning, rapid response, and the judgment to make the right call under pressure
What We Are Looking For- 10 or more years of communications experience, with meaningful time building programs and teams at high-growth technology companies
- Range across narrative craft and distribution mechanics: you write well, you think in systems, and you do not outsource either
- Demonstrated ability to translate technical complexity across multiple distinct audiences without losing substance for any of them
- Business and financial fluency: you understand how positioning, growth narrative, and investor perception connect to communications strategy
- Strong media relationships built on trust over time and a proactive news sense
- Proven issues management judgment: you have handled something that mattered, under pressure, and made the right call
- High agency, low ego: you ship, you give direct feedback, you are accountable for outcomes not outputs
- AI-native in practice: you use AI tools to move faster and better while maintaining high editorial standards
Why This MomentThe companies that get communications right in AI will not just have better press coverage. They will have built something more durable: a public understanding of what they are doing and why it matters that survives scrutiny, competitive noise, and the narrative chaos of a category being defined in real time.
We are not looking for someone to manage the story we already have. We are looking for someone to build the model. If that is the problem you want to work on, we want to hear from you.
