Lightmatter is (re)inventing the future of computing with light!

Lightmatter’s technical content, events, and executive voices are strong. In this role, you’ll build the digital engine that gets them in front of more of the right people. You’ll own performance across LinkedIn, YouTube, our website, search, and emerging AI answer platforms, working closely with marketing, product, engineering, and executive teams. You’ll be our in-house owner of SEO and AEO.

  • Run campaigns: Plan campaigns around events, launches, and competitive moments. Manage paid search and HubSpot email programs, and keep our contact database up-to-date and compliant.
