Field Marketer

We’re building something ambitious at Fly.io: a new public cloud, running on our own hardware all over the world, built to make it easy to run apps close to users anywhere in the world. Unlike the vast majority of our roles, this role is geographically specific; field marketing here is in large part about engaging local communities. We’re currently hiring a field marketer who can deliver work full time in North America and Europe, where our Developer Relations Engineers are located.

So far, we’ve focused a lot on self-serve growth: developers (our users) can find us, sign up, and build things on their own. Now, we want to meet developers where they are, out in the world. We’re looking for a Senior Field Marketing Manager to drive our presence in ecosystem events and Developer Relations.

This role combines event management, strategic planning, budget control, and audience engagement. You’ll manage field marketing events from conception through execution, making sure that Fly.io is showing up in an impactful way that’s aligned with who we are as a company. You’ll need to provide calm leadership in high-pressure situations and make sure that events run smoothly, even when challenges (inevitably) occur.

If you’re a community builder, this role should feel magical. Fly.io’s a group of really fun, genuine people, and we need you to help us reach more people like us. We don’t want you to shill; we want you to gameplan how to create over-the-top fun for developers, and then engage with them—using beautiful swag, good conversation, and great food and drinks—so that they become evangelists.
