Surface Labs is building the first marketing operations platform used to systematically turn inbound leads into qualified pipeline. We move fast, ship constantly, and treat content as it’s own product that requires continuous experimentation and iteration.
We’re looking for someone who can both think and make: writing, editing, recording, designing, and publishing. This role blends storytelling, product understanding, and hands-on creation.
We are funded by top VCs, GTM operators, and SaaS founders from Y Combinator, AngelList, HubSpot, and several of the fastest growing companies. Surface Labs already powers hundreds of funnels for leading B2B and enterprise teams across SaaS, financial services, automotive, and home services.
