The opportunity
The Render Startup Program is how we earn our place as the default cloud for the next generation of builders. The most important founders don't come to us through ads or big conferences, they come through trusted rooms, warm intros, and high-signal moments.
What you'll do
Run the operational backbone of the Startup Program. Own application triage: and review, credit issuance, partner UTM tracking, and CRM hygiene across HubSpot and Airtable, so the program scales cleanly and our lead can stay focused on strategy.
Build and run the SF founder engine. Source and curate guest lists of: high-quality founders, manage venues, invitations, RSVPs, and logistics end-to-end, and own flawless day-of execution so every event feels effortless and worth a founder's time.
Drive light event marketing and promotion. Craft invitations, event landing: pages, follow-up sequences, and post-event nurture that resonate with a founder and developer audience.
Partner with Developer Relations to reach founders at scale and ensure the: content, conversations, and programming land credibly with a technical crowd.
Grow Render's footprint in the SF ecosystem. Build and maintain relationships: across founders, operators, accelerators, and VC platform teams, and become a connective node in the community we're building.
Close the loop on impact. Track attendance, attribution, and conversion from: event to program to customer, so we know which rooms produce the best builders and can double down.
What they're looking for
- years of experience across some mix of sales, partnerships, marketing,: program or operations management, recruiting/talent, or developer relations. This isn't a role for someone fresh out of school, but it is a great step for someone ready to grow into marketing, partnerships, and growth.
- Deep roots in the SF startup ecosystem. You're genuinely social, a natural: connector, and you can make a warm intro in your sleep.
- Fluency in the venture landscape and a real understanding of the AI: transformation reshaping how startups build.
- An instinct for how developers adopt tools. You understand the technologies: in the consideration set for technical teams and that developers hate being marketed to. You don't need to have marketed to developers before, you just need to get the landscape.
- High agency and strong organization. You find problems before they're: assigned, you're comfortable owning logistics from invite to follow-up, and you're energized by being in the room.
