Description

The company is a global payment software company. It serves large enterprises that want more control, visibility and flexibility over how they run and optimise payments.

The company is building a modular meta layer that covers the full payment lifecycle. Its platform gives large brands the building blocks to solve complex operational problems and create smooth customer experiences.

Investors include Andreessen Horowitz, HV Capital, EQT Ventures and General Catalyst.

The team is small, hands-on and focused on the problems that matter most. People are expected to understand the wider context of their work, take ownership and act with purpose.

The Marketing team sits between storytelling, product and go-to-market. Its job is to make the company easy to understand, relevant and trusted by enterprises worldwide.

Marketing works at a fast pace and focuses on lasting impact over short-term noise. It rests on three pillars: understanding customers through ongoing research and listening, writing sharp and differentiated narratives, and growing through quick, measured experiments across content and channels.

You will join a group of practical builders who combine creativity with analytical rigour. This role helps define a category that is still emerging.

Responsibilities

  • Decide what the company publishes, why each piece matters, and how it fits the brand voice, product and customers.
  • Turn complex technical and product ideas into clear, well-structured content for enterprise readers.
  • Set the quality bar so every piece meets standards for clarity, precision and usefulness.
  • Plan content with Product, Marketing and Sales to support launches, explain the product's value and build trust.
  • Build and maintain content guidelines and systems that keep output consistent and well crafted as the team grows.
  • Shape how the company appears in the market, including the quality of the writing itself.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience planning and creating content at fast-growing tech or SaaS companies.
  • A record of shaping narratives, developing brand voice and building editorial systems that deliver measurable business results.
  • Excellent writing and editing skills, with close attention to clarity, tone and structure.
  • A strategic mindset: you ask what each piece is for, who it serves and how it links to business goals.
  • Daily use of AI tools such as LLMs and AI writing and research assistants to research, explore angles and scale output. You apply your own judgment, fact-check and edit so all work meets standards for accuracy, voice and quality.
  • Pride in craft across formats such as landing pages, case studies and blog posts.
  • Comfort working across functions and gathering input without losing focus or momentum.
  • Strong commitment to quality, with the ability to scale it through systems, standards and iteration.
  • Strong written and verbal communication.
