Company mission
To create products and workflows that help fast-moving teams achieve more.
Role
Who you are
- 5+ years of experience at a fast-moving startup, where you owned or helped build product marketing, ideally in a 0→1 environment
- Exceptional communicator with strong narrative instincts, clear point of view, and sharp brand taste
- Experience marketing developer tools or highly technical products, with a proven track record in developer-focused marketing and education
- High bar for craft and detail, paired with the ability to zoom out on strategy and dive deep on execution when needed
- Strong product intuition, with the ability to take ideas from concept to shipped work quickly and independently
What the job involves
- You’ll lead product marketing at Graphite from the ground up—owning our positioning, narrative, and product launch strategy end to end. You’ll partner with product and design to define how features are positioned, packaged, and launched
- Evolve our product positioning and narrative as we enter our pivotal next phase of growth
- Drive product launches end-to-end, from storytelling and messaging to execution across key marketing channels
- Build the foundations of the product marketing function, launching playbooks, crafting messaging, and owning overall channel strategy
- Partner closely with product, design, and revenue teams to shape GTM plans for new features and releases
- Drive messaging and positioning across core marketing surfaces—social, email, launch pages, and campaigns—and ensure it’s clear, consistent, and high quality
Our take
Graphite is making advanced code review and developer tools accessible to a wider range of engineers, breaking down the barriers that typically limit such resources to teams at large companies. While industry giants like Facebook and Google use tools like Phabricator and Critique, Graphite offers open-source solutions with a command-line interface and dashboard, empowering developers of all sizes to streamline their code review processes.
What sets Graphite apart is its ability to dramatically enhance engineering team efficiency with innovative features. Unlike traditional linear code review processes - where code is committed and then reviewed - Graphite allows for concurrent reviews. This enables engineers to continue working on other tasks while their code is being reviewed, leading to a much more productive workflow.
As the company continues to roll out regular performance improvements and refine its features, it has continued to expand its user base. With strong support and a growing community of users, Graphite has gained traction across even the most traditional engineering teams, and in late 2025 was acquired by AI coding assistant Cursor.
