Marketing Associate

What you'll actually work on

• Events. Lightdash's events presence is growing fast. You'll own our events calendar: deciding which conferences we attend, whether we go with a booth, a talk, a side event, or something we throw ourselves. You'll manage logistics end-to-end: venues, vendors, assets, speaker coordination, registrations, and being on the ground when it matters. We run our own meetup series and you'll help grow that too.

• Community. We have a real community of data practitioners on Slack, on LinkedIn, at events, in the dbt ecosystem. You'll help us nurture it: keeping it active, finding ways to give back, and turning lurkers into advocates. You'll spot the people worth knowing and help us build genuine relationships with them.

• Content. Turning what happens in the world (events, product launches, conversations with customers, things we're thinking about) into blog posts, write-ups, and social content. You'll also own production across our marketing calendar and help keep the content engine running.

• Other stuff. This is a startup. So, you'll occasionally help out with content, social, or campaigns.

What we're looking for

We care about drive and curiosity more than a perfect CV. Here's what would make you stand out:

• 1+ years of experience running events or community programmes, in-house or agency. B2B tech is a bonus

• You're a strong communicator, written and in-person. You can write a compelling outreach email and hold a room at a meetup

• You're organised in the way that matters: deadlines don't slip, vendors get chased, and nothing falls through the cracks

• You use AI tools as a genuine part of how you work. Not just for writing, but for moving faster and doing more with less

• You're proactive: you spot what needs doing and do it

• You're excited about learning the full spectrum of marketing, not just one corner of it

Bonus:

• You're familiar with tools like Attio, Google Analytics, Figma, and Framer

• You have existing relationships in the data/analytics/dbt community

What you'll get

• Competitive salary

• Real ownership from day one

• Broad exposure across marketing: events, content, community, partnerships, campaigns

• Direct mentorship from an experienced team, with full visibility into how a fast-growing startup approaches marketing
