Founding Brand & Communications Lead

About Meshy ----------- Meshy is building the generative AI layer for 3D. Developers, creators, game studios, and enterprise teams use Meshy to turn ideas into production-ready 3D assets in minutes instead of weeks. We’re a Silicon Valley company with a global team, growing fast, and now at the point where the category we’re creating needs a name, a story, and a voice. Why This Role Exists -------------------- Today, Meshy is known as a very good AI 3D tool. That’s not enough. The next phase requires Meshy to be understood as a company with a defined category position, a long-term vision, and real cultural weight in AI and creative software. You’ll be the person who answers these questions and then makes the whole company answer them the same way: * What does Meshy stand for in AI, 3D, and creative tools? * Why should developers, creators, game companies, and enterprise buyers care about Meshy now? * What is the single story that connects our product, our founders, our customers, the press, and our industry partners? This is a founding brand role. You will write, not just direct. What You’ll Own --------------- * Company positioning, brand architecture, core messaging, and the long-term narrative. * Translating hard technical capability in AI and 3D into stories that are clear, credible, and memorable. * One consistent voice across the website, product launches, funding announcements, founder talks, employer brand, customer stories, and sales collateral. * Executive narrative with the founders and leadership team: keynotes, interviews, points of view, and industry agenda-setting. * Major product launches and brand campaigns, from creative concept through to shipped content. * A reusable messaging framework that Growth, Sales, BD, PR, and Product all actually use. * Proof of industry impact through customer, creator, studio, and partner stories. What We’re Looking For ---------------------- * 8–15 years in brand strategy, brand marketing, corporate narrative, product marketing, or editorial/content strategy. * You have led a repositioning, category creation, or brand rebuild at a technology company—as the owner of it, not a contributor to it. * A portfolio we can read: website narrative, brand manifesto, a major launch, a founder keynote, or an integrated campaign. * You can tell a technical story to developers, creators, enterprise buyers, press, and investors—and change the register for each. * Exceptional English writing and editing. You personally write the things that matter most. * Demonstrated cross-functional influence: you’ve gotten founders, Product, Design, Marketing, and Sales to adopt one narrative and stay on it. * Comfortable operating as a hands-on individual contributor in an early-stage environment. Bonus Points ------------ * Background in generative AI, creative tools, developer tools, gaming, 3D, design software, or high-growth B2B SaaS. * You’ve built a brand for a product whose category didn’t fully exist yet, rather than maintaining an established one. * You hold both technical credibility and cultural resonance—developers trust you, and the work still has emotional pull. * Experience taking a global or China-founded technology company into the U.S. market. * Founder brand, thought leadership, or executive communications experience. This Role Is Probably Not for You If ------------------------------------ * Your work is primarily PR and media relations without positioning work behind it. * Your background is in content marketing, SEO, social media, or community management. * You’re a visual creative director who owns design systems and art direction. * You come from consumer or lifestyle brands and haven’t worked on technical products.
