Sentry
Startups Marketing Lead
San Francisco, California · Exec · Full-time
Sponsorship not specifiedDetected 55 days ago
About the role
- What we don't have is someone whose full-time job is making this program a real growth engine.
- You'll take what exists today and turn it into something that makes Sentry the default monitoring choice for every new company shipping code.
- This role reports to the Head of Enterprise Marketing (yes, we get how this can be confusing, but she's pretty cool) and works across Growth, Product Marketing, and DevEx.
Responsibilities
- Be Sentry's face in the startup ecosystem. Show up at demo days, founder events, and SF tech week. Build relationships with the people building the next generation of companies. Not because it's a line item, but because you're genuinely in that world.
- Create content and campaigns for startup audiences. Founders and early engineers don't read whitepapers (we don't write them either). Figure out what they do read, watch, and share, then put Sentry in front of them in a way that feels useful, not salesy.
- the partner ecosystem, the community presence, the acquisition programs, the brand in rooms full of founders and early engineers.
- We strive to build a diverse team, with an inclusive culture where every teammate can thrive.
- Build and scale startup partnerships.
Requirements
- 4-7 years in marketing, growth, or partnerships, with significant time spent working with or inside early-stage startups
- Track record of working across growth, brand, community, and partnerships (not just one lane)
- Familiarity with the developer tools or B2B SaaS ecosystem
- You can run a paid campaign and also have a genuine conversation with a founder at a YC demo day afterparty.
- Experience building programs from scratch - not inheriting and optimizing, but actually standing something up
- Experience managing partner relationships (accelerators, VCs, deal platforms) and getting real results from them
- Bonus: you came to marketing from somewhere unexpected - operations, policy, legal, engineering, and it gives you a different lens on the work
