About the role This is a career-defining opportunity for someone who sits at the intersection of three disciplines: editorial, communications, and brand. We're looking for someone who can use them together to own how Scribe and our founders show up in the world. You'll be the connection point between what our product is doing, what our founders are saying, and how the company is perceived in the market. You won't wait to be handed a narrative. You'll come with a strong POV and pressure-test it with the right people. You’ll ensure the story we're telling in a press release, a LinkedIn or X post, and an investor conversation is the right story, adapted for each audience. Our founders are authentic, independent thinkers, Scribe is a Series C AI startup at a critical growth stage, and the category we've created is evolving in real time. This work has been proven out, and now it needs a leader to take it to the next level. This is not a role for someone who measures success by press mentions.

Brand - Category builder: You've helped shape a narrative in a new or forming category. You understand how to make claims about where the market is going and positioned a company as the one leading the way. You have a strong pulse on the current AI and tech landscape. - Founder whisperer: You thrive working directly with founders. You understand the difference between what they say and what the company says, and you can bring out their authentic voice without losing your own judgment. How you create - Creator: You likely have a creative outlet of your own, like a Substack, a social following, or a body of ghost-written or longform work. You know wh
