Chief Marketing Officer

About the Role

Neural Concept builds category defining AI that helps engineers design better physical products, faster. Our technology is used by leading engineering organizations, including Formula 1 teams and major automotive manufacturers across Europe and Asia. We are defining a new category, AI for Engineering, and we are looking for a Chief Marketing Officer to establish it and build the marketing organization required for our next stage of global growth.

Reporting to the CEO, you will lead an established international team and own our market positioning, product narrative, growth strategy and marketing operating model. You will combine a deep understanding of complex technology and enterprise customers with the ability to set priorities, scale teams and stay personally involved in the work that matters most.

You will inherit a capable specialist team spanning product marketing, brand and communications, digital and marketing operations, creative, partner marketing and regional field marketing. Your job is to give that team a clear, durable strategy, connect our technology and market narrative to enterprise growth, and make disciplined choices about priorities, organization and resource allocation.

Your work will shape how a new category is understood across the engineering world and influence how global manufacturers adopt AI in their design processes.
