Honoring Diverse Perspectives Lightship is committed to hiring and developing top talent from diverse backgrounds.

About the Role

As a Senior Product Marketing Manager / Product Marketing Manager, you will own GTM strategy and marketing for upcoming Lightship product launches. You will be expected to drive the vision and often the execution of engaging consumer-facing marketing, with the support of a cross-functional marketing, product, and creative team. This role requires wearing many hats to identify and build solutions that grow customer and prospective customer engagement and drive product education. As the third member of the marketing team, you will collaborate with and report to the Head of Marketing.

Our ideal fit will be a marketer who straddles the creative and analytical worlds with a background in product marketing, growth, acquisition, lifecycle, and/or GTM, and who is excited about our mission to bring electrification to new demographics and new demographics to the recreational vehicle industry. You’re a self-starter who loves a good challenge to get yourself unstuck with creative solutions but also knows how to ask for help and support when needed.
