ABOUT THE ROLE

We're hiring Dust's first Strategic Partner Marketing Lead to build our partner marketing function and help shape its 2027 global relaunch. You'll create the stories, campaigns, events, and tools that help partners bring Dust to market and generate demand.

The remit spans technology partners, solution partners (SIs), private equity firms, and hyperscalers. Partnerships owns the relationships and investment priorities; you turn those priorities into focused marketing initiatives and measurable pipeline. This is a senior, hands-on role: set the strategy, build alignment with partner leaders, and deliver the work.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Set the joint story and plan. Build "better together" messaging with Product Marketing, and turn integrations, shared workflows, and partner use cases into launch plans, customer stories, and proof points.
• Run campaigns and events. Lead joint launches, webinars, content, email, paid campaigns, field events, and executive programs. Co-host flagship events with strategic partners and create repeatable events other partners can run themselves autonomously. Manage co-marketing budgets and secure shared commitments.
• Market across partner ecosystems. For technology partners, activate integrations, marketplaces, newsletters, and communities. Equip solution partners (systems integrators) with "marketing-in-a-box" kits to promote Dust-powered services. Reach PE portfolio companies through operating-partner briefings and portfolio events. Build hyperscaler marketplace and co-marketing programs. Partner with Growth on campaigns that support partner acquisition where useful.
• Equip partner sellers. Create one-pagers, talk tracks, email sequences, account-based campaigns, demos, and training that help partner

rst culture. Some of the best things about building at Dust are the energy, the fast decisions, and the unexpected conversations that unlock a hard problem, which happen because we are in the same room. Being together is not a formality, it is how we do our best work, and it is something we actively protect.

That said, we hire people with strong judgement and we extend that trust to how they manage their time. When working from home makes more sense for what you need to get done that day, we trust you to make that call.

WHY DUST

The models are powerful enough. What's missing is the product layer where AI meets how companies actually work. That's what we're building: the infrastructure that lets any team turn scattered knowledge and tools into coordinated execution with agents they build, own, and run themselves.

We use Dust ourselves every day. We get to shape how humans and agents collaborate while solving our own problems with the product we ship. That loop is rare, and it's why we move fast.

If you're excited about defining a new category and want to join a determined team of optimists who focus on users, ship fast, and don't take themselves too seriously, we'd love to talk.

Even if you don't check every box in our requirements, we encourage you to apply. We value diverse perspectives and backgrounds, and we're more interested in your potential and passion than a perfect match to our checklist.
