What the job involves
- As companies shift more of their revenue strategy toward in-person interactions, we’re creating a new role inside Vendelux that reflects the future of go-to-market: the IRL Engineer
- This role is dedicated to engineering the highest-impact in-person interactions possible — for our internal teams, our customers, and our partners
- The IRL Engineer will design the systems, playbooks, and programs that maximize face-to-face time across events, field activations, owned experiences, and business travel
- If the GTM Engineer empowers teams with AI, the IRL Engineer uses AI to empower teams with human connection — the ultimate lever in modern GTM
- We are hiring our first IRL Engineer to set the standard for innovation, measurement, and ROI around every in-person moment Vendelux creates
- This role reports directly to our Head of Marketing
- Build and execute Vendelux’s strategy for in-person interactions across owned events, third-party conferences, field activations, and community experience
- Use the Vendelux platform to identify the highest-ROI opportunities for customer and prospect engagements
- Collaborate with team members across departments while also leveraging AI Agents to create IRL connections at scale
- Generate sales pipeline and deepen customer/partner relationships through high-quality in-person interactions
- Ensure every event (owned or sponsored) is optimized for maximum meetings with prospects, customers, partners, and talent
- Own sponsorship negotiations, event budgets, and ROI reporting
- Run owned experiences such as meetups, customer dinners, micro-events, and executive gatherings
- Coordinate all pre- and post-event logistics, coordinate AI Agent & human outreach, and build agentic follow-up systems
- Collaborate closely with sales, marketing, product, and leadership to align IRL strategy with business goals
- Create scalable processes and measurement frameworks that operationalize relationship-building
- Represent Vendelux externally as a thought leader in IRL marketing excellence and the future of event marketing
- Collaborate with engineering and product to build AI Agents that operationalize IRL Engineering tasks and IRL marketing jobs to be done
Our take
Event marketing enables companies to engage with potential buyers and showcase their offerings in real-time - providing an ideal platform to communicate ideas, thoughts, and brand identity. Vendelux offers a platform that empowers event marketers and CMOs to analyse customer and competitor behaviour, and in turn choose the best conferences to attend.
The company leverages AI to deliver insights on attendees and sponsors of over 160,000 global conferences, helping customers decide which events they should attend and sponsor for the largest return. It also allows collaboration with sales teams to book meetings with every possible lead, and ROI evaluation tools that prove the value of all event marketing activities.
Since founding, the company has amassed a growing customer base including the likes of Paypal and Calendly, and also raised several successful funding rounds. The most recent funding will allow Vendelux to broaden its reach, enhance product development, and further diversify its customer segments.
