Product Marketing Manager

About Mercor Mercor's mission is to organize human intelligence to power the AI economy. We partner with leading AI labs and enterprises to provide the human intelligence essential to AI development. Our vast talent network trains frontier AI models in the same way teachers teach students: by sharing knowledge, experience, and context that can't be captured in code alone. Today, more than 30,000 experts in our network collectively earn over $2 million a day. Mercor is creating a new category of work where expertise powers AI advancement. Achieving this requires an ambitious, fast-paced and deeply committed team. You’ll work alongside researchers, operators, and AI companies at the forefront of shaping the systems that are redefining society. Mercor is a profitable Series C company valued at $10 billion. We work in-person five days a week in our San Francisco, NYC, or London offices. About the role: We're looking for a Product Marketing Manager to define how APEX (our AI benchmarks) is positioned, understood, and adopted by the AI researchers and technical leads. This is an opportunity to be the first PMM at Mercor and build the function from the ground up. You'll shape the market narrative for a product at the intersection of human expertise and frontier AI development, and define what great product marketing looks like at a company that is growing faster than most. You'll work directly with research, engineering, and GTM teams to deeply understand our audience, refine the messaging and infrastructure, and ensure every launch, asset, and partnership is in service of a broader narrative. Key responsibilities: Audience research and positioning: Become the internal expert on AI researchers and technical buyers: how they work, what they care about, and what would make them advocates. Use that understanding to develop collateral that earns credibility and builds hype. Messaging and narrative: Own core messaging for APEX across all channels and audiences. Turn complex benchmarking methodology and research into narratives that resonate with technical stakeholders. Maintain messaging frameworks, FAQs, and audience-specific language that keeps every customer-facing team aligned. Social-first launch & content strategy: Plan and execute launches across research, engineering, web, and marketing to ensure launches land and create momentum in the AI ecosystem (especially on X and LinkedIn). Content and asset development: Create and support the development of marketing materials such as research reports, technical one-pagers, blog posts, and launch videos. Advocacy and partner marketing: Develop new programs with individual researchers and partners at AI labs, application layer companies, and enterprises that place Mercor/APEX in the center of AI research. Must haves: 4-6 years of professional experience, early-stage, high-growth or fast paced company. You've been part of a small marketing team and know how to flex across responsibilities without losing focus. You know how to market to technical audiences. You understand how AI researchers think, what earns their trust, and how to communicate about benchmarks, evals, and research. You have a deep understanding of data storytelling. You use AI tools to accelerate your own work and you're comfortable in conversations with the labs and technical stakeholders we partner with. You earn trust with senior stakeholders across product, research, and sales, and you know how to drive alignment. You think in frameworks, not playbooks. You approach new problems with first-principles thinking and build processes where none exists. You have range and a willingness to shift as priorities change. Bonus Experience at a company that sells into or partners with AI labs Background in technical content, research communications, or developer marketing Familiarity with the AI benchmarking or evals landscape
