First Marketing Manager at Chef Robotics

At Chef Robotics, we are driven by the belief that the next great leap for artificial intelligence is not just in software, but in the physical world. While large language models have captured the world's attention, we are focused on the ninety percent of global GDP represented by industries like food, manufacturing, and transportation. Our mission is to place an intelligent robot in every commercial kitchen across the globe. We are backed by prominent investors like Kleiner Perkins, Construct, Bloomberg BETA, and Promus Ventures, and our team is composed of talented experts from industry leaders such as Tesla, Cruise, Google, and Amazon Robotics. Having operated in stealth while building our technology and securing multi-year contracts, we are now preparing for our first public release and are looking for a visionary leader to help us become the dominant brand in robotics and embodied AI.

The opportunity

We are seeking our first Marketing Manager to join us in San Francisco. This is a high-impact, generalist role where you will work directly with our CEO to shape how the world perceives Chef Robotics. You will be responsible for defining our brand voice, generating awareness among top-tier engineers and venture capitalists, and driving our public launch. While this is an individual contributor position today, it offers a unique path for growth as we scale our marketing function. You will be the architect of our public presence, ensuring that our story reaches the right audiences and supports our ambitious revenue and sales goals.

A day in the life

• You will craft and execute our public release strategy, creating compelling content and securing coverage in both popular press and specialized food and beverage trade journals.
• You will manage our digital footprint by maintaining our website in Webflow, designing wireframes in Figma, and leading our social media presence to engage our target communities.
• You will oversee our end-to-end trade show and webinar strategy, which includes designing booths, capturing customer case studies through videography and photography, and creating sales enablement materials that clearly communicate our value proposition.

Who you are

You are a seasoned professional with at least 5 years of product marketing experience in a B2B, SaaS, or Robotics environment. You have a proven track record of successfully launching products and thrive in the fast-paced, often unpredictable nature of a startup. You possess a unique blend of creative and analytical skills, allowing you to move from writing high-level copy to managing marketing automation tools with ease. You are resilient, comfortable with the rejection that often comes with PR, and possess the technical proficiency to handle design and video editing tasks. Fluency in English is required, and you must be able to work on-site at our headquarters in San Francisco.

Why you'll love it here

Joining Chef Robotics means becoming part of a team that is fundamentally changing how the world works. You will be surrounded by some of the brightest minds in engineering and robotics. We are committed to building an inclusive workplace and value diversity in all its forms. We recognize that the perfect candidate may not meet every single requirement listed, so if you are passionate about our mission to bring intelligent machines into the physical world, we encourage you to apply. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome candidates from all backgrounds to help us build the future of food automation.
