Job Description
The financial industry is growing at a record pace, but our data providers are still stuck in the past — with cumbersome onboarding processes, complicated APIs, slow infrastructure, and expensive licensing costs.
Databento is the next-generation market data provider — with the radical idea that you should only pay for the data that you use. We power the world's largest finance and fintech institutions and lower the barrier of entry for small startups, gaining over 4000 users during our first year of launch. Our team consists of former data users from firms like Two Sigma, Belvedere, Pico, Flow Traders, and Tower Research.
We offer health, dental, disability, and life insurance benefits, as well as 401(k) matching and visa sponsorships for full-time employees. We accommodate 100% remote work, with teammates living around the globe and paid in their local currency.
Responsibilities
You'll help oversee the company's go-to-market (GTM) strategy, digital media, growth metrics, and overall marketing plan. This includes the following.
- Lead or co-lead social media on LinkedIn and X, including valuable short-form posts, long-form technical blog posts, videos, polls, and more.
- Drive ideas and efforts to create PR, partnerships, case studies, and co-marketing opportunities with other companies in our industry.
- Improve the company's SEO and SEM strategy, as well as other digital ad placements, backlink opportunities, and website optimizations.
- Execute various inbound and outbound campaigns; track relevant metrics to determine the ROI of campaigns and marketing channels.
- Research competitors and their marketing strategies.
- Collaborate with executives to make decisions regarding the budget, branding, and direction of the company, including high-level decisions regarding agencies.
- Create and maintain a successful brand and image.

The ideal candidate can communicate with ease on various platforms (social media, blog posts, technical content, press releases, conferences, etc.). We also look for the skills listed below.
- 2-5 years of experience in B2B SaaS in areas like SEO, digital marketing, growth marketing, social media, and/or PR.
- A natural interest in posting and engaging frequently with our community of quants and developers on LinkedIn and Twitter.

Verify Employer Thoroughly
Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.
Never Pay to Get a Job
Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.
Safeguard Your Personal Information
Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.
Scrutinize Communication & Interviews
Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.
Beware of Unrealistic Offers
If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.
Insist on a Formal Contract
Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
