About CraftifAI
CraftifAI is building an agentic AI platform for embedded software development, Edge AI pipelines, IoT firmware, and FPGA design.
Through CraftifAI Orbit, we are enabling engineering teams to accelerate the development of Physical AI products by automating complex workflows across embedded systems, edge computing, and intelligent hardware.
Our audience includes embedded engineers, Edge AI developers, robotics teams, OEMs, semiconductor companies, and enterprise engineering leaders.
We are looking for a Head of Growth Marketing who can translate our technical capabilities into a compelling market narrative, get our products in front of the right audiences, and convert that attention into platform adoption, qualified leads, and revenue.
The Role
You will own CraftifAI's end-to-end marketing and growth strategy, spanning brand positioning, developer acquisition, demand generation, community growth, digital marketing, and global marketing initiatives.
This is a hands-on leadership role. You will lead a team of 3–4 people, establish the marketing engine, manage external agencies and partners, and work closely with the founders, product, engineering, and sales teams.
The ultimate objective is simple:
Get more developers and enterprises to discover CraftifAI, try Orbit, build with it, and become paying customers.
We are looking for someone who understands that marketing a technical product requires more than running ads. It requires understanding the product, speaking the language of engineers, building credibility within technical communities, and creating measurable demand.

- Build acquisition strategies that drive developers to sign up, try Orbit, complete their first projects, and upgrade from Free to Pro.

- Drive developer acquisition and engagement through technical content, webinars, workshops, hackathons, meetups, and ambassador programs.
- Establish relationships with developer communities, engineering groups, universities, and technical ecosystems.
- Create programs that encourage developers to actively build projects using Orbit rather than simply sign up.
- Work with the Community Lead and DevRel team to drive developer onboarding, activation, retention, and Free-to-Pro conversion.
- Build advocacy through developer success stories, project showcases, testimonials, and community champions.
- Brand Positioning, Content & Thought Leadership
- Develop a clear and differentiated positioning for CraftifAI and its product portfolio.
- Translate complex technical capabilities into compelling messaging that resonates with developers, engineering leaders, and enterprise decision-makers.

- Experiment with different messaging, audience segments, creatives, and acquisition channels.
- Track acquisition costs, conversion rates, lead quality, pipeline contribution, and campaign ROI.

- Growth Experiments & Marketing Operations
- Continuously experiment with new acquisition channels, distribution strategies, partnerships, campaigns, and messaging.
- Identify high-performing growth loops and build repeatable processes around them.
- Use analytics and attribution tools to understand what drives developer adoption and enterprise conversions.
- Establish dashboards to track marketing performance, funnel metrics, campaign ROI, and revenue contribution.
- Build effective marketing automation, CRM workflows, lead nurturing, and marketing operations.
- Allocate budgets based on measurable outcomes and continuously improve marketing efficiency.
