Head of Field and Events

We are hiring a Head of Field and Events to own how Coder wins in person. This is one of three pillars in our marketing strategy, where brand, narrative, and pipeline meet the customer face to face.

This is a player-coach role. You will set the strategy for our field and events program and run it with your own hands. You will pick the events that matter, design the experiences around them, and make sure every dollar and every hour on the ground turns into pipeline. Early on you will do much of the execution yourself. As the program proves out, you will build and lead the team behind it.

You will report to the CMO and work shoulder to shoulder with sales, demand generation, product marketing, and partnerships. If you like owning a number, being close to customers, and turning a room into revenue, this is your seat.

• In your first 90 days you audit our current events, kill what is not working, and lock a calendar and budget for the next two quarters.

• By month six you have a repeatable playbook for third-party events and at least one owned event format proven to source pipeline.

• By month twelve events are a reliable, measurable pipeline engine, and you have made your first hire to scale it.

• 7+ years in field marketing, events, or demand generation, with time at a B2B software or infrastructure company selling to technical and enterprise buyers.

• A track record of running events that sourced real pipeline. You can point to numbers, not just nice booths.

• Player-coach range. You can build the strategy and also stand up the booth, brief the sales team, and fix the badge scanner at 7am.

• Sharp project management. You keep many moving parts on schedule and on budget without dropping details.

• Comfort with data and tools. You work in a CRM and marketing automation, and you hold yourself to pipeline and ROI metrics.

• Strong partnership with sales. You are trusted in the field and you make reps want to work with you.

• Willingness to travel, often, and to be on the ground when it counts.

• Experience marketing to developers, platform teams, or security and infrastructure buyers.

• You have built a field or events function from scratch, not just run one that already existed.

• You have worked in a fast-moving startup where the plan changes and you change with it.

You will own a category-defining moment. AI is reshaping how software gets built, and Coder is the layer that makes it safe to do at scale. Our marketing runs on a clear narrative, a premium brand, and a team that ships. You will have the budget, the trust, and the room to build the field program the way it should be built.

• Granola takes notes during our interview calls so our team can focus on the conversation with you.

All hiring decisions are made by humans. Our team reviews applications, conducts interviews, and makes final selections. AI tools assist us but never replace human judgment, and these practices are conducted in compliance with applicable data protection, AI governance, and labor laws.
