About Tapestry

Originally born at X, Alphabet’s moonshot factory, Tapestry brings together experts in energy, AI, software engineering, and products to build tools that help the electricity ecosystem plan smarter, move faster, and operate more efficiently.
This is a global effort. Tapestry supports partners across the U.S., U.K., Chile, New Zealand, Australia, and Brazil as they work toward a cleaner, more resilient energy future.

About the Role
As Head of Brand & Communications, you will shape Tapestry's voice, narrative, and reputation as we build a new technology category at the intersection of AI and the electric grid.
Reporting directly to the CEO as a strategic thought-partner, you will lead our brand and communications strategy across a diverse set of audiences, including utility and enterprise customers, policymakers and industry leaders, employees, Alphabet stakeholders, investors, and the broader public.
You'll partner closely with leaders across Product, Engineering, Commercial, and Policy to turn complex technical ideas into clear, credible, and compelling stories. This is a highly strategic, hands-on role for a player-coach who can move seamlessly between advising executives, shaping company positioning, and personally doing the writing and storytelling required to bring that strategy to life.

- Translate complex technology into compelling stories by partnering with Product, Engineering, and Commercial teams to make sophisticated technical concepts clear, credible, and relevant to customers and external stakeholders.
- Serve as a strategic thought-partner and communications advisor to the CEO and leadership team, shaping executive positioning, thought leadership, key company narratives, and communications during high-impact moments.

- Experience building or repositioning an emerging technology category.
- Experience with public-sector stakeholders, policy, or regulatory communications.

- Take charge: We take initiative and own outcomes that move the mission forward.
- Transform with purpose: We build solutions that solve real problems and create meaningful impact.
- Be a Tapestry, not a thread: We collaborate across diverse skills and perspectives to achieve more than we can individually.
- Always fine-tune: We stay curious, seek feedback, and refine our understanding as we learn.
