About Goodfire

Goodfire is an AI interpretability research lab. We build interpretability agents and infrastructure to understand, monitor, and align AI models.

We believe that AI is the most consequential technology of our time. Yet AI models are trained by trial and error today, with limited understanding of what drives their behavior. Our goal is to advance the research and technology needed to fully understand and align AI so humanity can trust superintelligence.

Goodfire is a public benefit corporation founded by researchers who helped pioneer the field of interpretability at OpenAI and Google DeepMind. We are headquartered in San Francisco and have raised over $200M from leading investors including Lightspeed, Menlo, and B Capital.

About the role

We're looking for a Product Marketing Lead to tell the Goodfire story to the AI researchers, engineers, and technical leaders who are building and training AI models. This role demands a rare combination: the technical credibility to engage deeply with an audience that trains AI models, the instinct to translate complex research into accessible stories, and the strategic vision to create a new category in the AI market.

This is a foundational role where you will define how the world understands what interpretability makes possible. That means owning our messaging strategy end to end: crafting positioning and messaging, orchestrating product launches, and shaping the broader market narrative around interpretability as a critical capability for the next generation of AI.

You will need to deeply understand our research, our product, and our market - translating frontier science into compelling value propositions that resonate with Heads of AI, CTOs, and research leaders at the companies building the most important models in the world.

Key responsibilities

Own positioning, messaging, and narrative: define how Goodfire and our platform are understood in market
Shape the category: establish an interpretability platform as a must-have capability in the AI stack through thought leadership, content, and strategic communications
Drive product launches: plan and execute launches that generate awareness and pipeline, from major research milestones to new platform capabilities
Build deep market intelligence: develop a rigorous understanding of the competitive landscape, buyer needs, and emerging use cases across verticals — and translate those insights into product and go-to-market strategy
Create sales enablement and field materials: arm our forward-deployed team with the positioning, demos, case studies, and collateral they need to win technical buyers

What you’ll bring

Required experience

Strong ability to translate highly technical concepts into clear, compelling narratives for deeply technical audiences (researchers, ML engineers, Heads of AI).
Strong strategic instincts and the ability to build a go-to-market playbook from scratch in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment.
Experience speaking to deeply technical buyers at AI labs, frontier model companies, or research-driven organizations.
Scrappiness, speed, and a bias toward action. You ship, measure, and iterate — not deck-build.

Preferred qualifications

Demonstrated experience owning product marketing end-to-end at an infrastructure, developer tools, or AI company - from positioning through launch execution and sales enablement.
Background as an early marketing hire at a high-growth startup, or experience building a product marketing function from the ground up.
Familiarity with the AI research landscape - interpretability, model training, alignment, and the broader ecosystem of labs and model developers.
Track record of defining or shaping a new product category.

Our values

Goodfire is looking for individuals who embody our values and share our deep commitment to making interpretability accessible. We are building a team first and foremost.

Put mission and team first

All we do is in service of our mission. We trust each other, deeply care about the success of the organization, and choose to put our team above ourselves.
