Founded by researchers from UC Berkeley's SkyLab, we're on a mission to measure and advance the frontier of AI for real-world use, and to build the foundation for everyone to understand, shape, and benefit from it.\nTens of millions of people use Arena each month to evaluate how frontier systems handle the work they actually do. The preferences they share power the most transparent, rigorous, and human-centered evaluations in AI. Leading AI labs, enterprises, and independent researchers rely on our work and open datasets to understand how models behave in real workflows: agentic coding, creative generation, professional productivity, and beyond. We go beyond leaderboards and decompose what human experience reveals about AI, so models advance toward the work people actually do.\nWe're a team of researchers, academics, builders, and creatives from UC Berkeley, Google, Stanford, and DeepMind. We seek truth, move fast, and value craftsmanship, curiosity, and impact over hierarchy. We're building a company where thoughtful, curious people from all backgrounds can do their best work together, in an office culture that radiates excellence, energy, and focus.\nAbout the Role:\nArena is looking for a Product Marketer to shape how millions of people understand, experience, and evaluate AI models in the real world. In this role, you will own the consumer-facing narrative of Arena, helping clarify what the product does, why it matters, and how people should use it to evaluate and use frontier AI models for their actual real-world needs.\nAs a key member of the growing Marketing team, reporting to the Head of Product Marketing, you will sit at the intersection of product, data, community, and storytelling. Your work will directly influence how users discover Arena, how they move through the product, and how clearly they understand model strengths, tradeoffs, and use cases to keep our audiences engaged.\nThis is a high-impact role focused on making Arena intuitive, credible, and indispensable to knowledge workers that want to stay at the forefront of AI. You’ll translate complex systems-crowdsourced voting, dynamic leaderboards, model routing, and evaluation methodology-into clear value for users, while preserving the scientific rigor and academic precision that Arena is known for.\nWe believe evaluation should be grounded in real usage, and shaped by the people who rely on AI every day. This role is for someone who can turn that belief into product positioning, onboarding, GTM feature launches, and user-facing education that scales.\nResponsibilities:\nOwning consumer-facing positioning and messaging across Arena’s core consumer product surfaces, ensuring users understand what Arena is, how it works, and why it’s trustworthy.\n\nDefining and refining value propositions for Arena’s user experiences (e.g., direct model comparisons, leaderboards, voting, routing) grounded in real-world use cases.\n\nPartnering with Product and Design to improve onboarding, navigation, and feature discovery for new and existing users.\n\nLeading go-to-market efforts for consumer-facing launches, updates, and experiments-including launch messaging, in-product education, and external announcements.\n\nTranslating Arena’s evaluation methodology and data into clear, accessible explanations without oversimplifying or undermining credibility.\n\nDeveloping frameworks to explain model differences, strengths, and tradeoffs in ways that help users make better decisions.\n\nCollecting and synthesizing user insights, behavioral data, and feedback to inform messaging, product direction, and prioritization.\n\nCollaborating cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Research, Comms, and Community to ensure consistency between what Arena is, what it does, and how it’s perceived.\n\nRequirements:\n5+ years of experience in Product Marketing, Growth, or Consumer Marketing roles, ideally in developer tools, SaaS, AI, or data-driven products.\n\nStrong ability to translate complex technical or data-heavy systems into clear, compelling consumer-facing narratives.\n\nProven experience partnering closely with Product and Design on onboarding, UX copy, and feature launches.\n\nTrack record of leading go-to-market efforts for consumer-facing products or features.\n\nDeep empathy for users and strong instincts for clarity, trust, and usability.\n\nExcellent communication skills across written, verbal, and visual mediums.\n\nComfort operating in ambiguity and iterating quickly in an early-stage, fast-moving environment, attention to detail and organization are critical.\n\nA proactive, self-directed work style with strong ownership and prioritization skills.\n\nPreferred Qualifications:\nExperience working with AI products, evaluation frameworks, or data-driven marketplaces.\n\nFamiliarity with user research, experimentation, and behavioral analytics.\n\nBackground in communities, platforms, or products with network effects.\n\nExperience explaining scientific methodology and complex systems to target audiences.\n\nFamiliarity with key software tools and software (such as Notion, Google Drive, PostHog, Figma, Linear, etc.) a huge plus.\n\nPrior startup experience a big plus.\n\nWhat we offer\nWe offer competitive compensation aligned to the markets where our team members are based. The compensation range for each role is listed on its posting and will depend on the candidate's experience and work location.\n\nComprehensive health and wellness benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and additional support programs.\n\nThe opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI with a small, mission-driven team\n\nA culture that values transparency, trust, and community impact\n\nCome help build the space where anyone can explore and help shape the future of AI.\nArena Intelligence provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6239,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Recommendation Systems","Marketing & Sales AI"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-29T20:36:28Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":63,"reasons":["conf:2","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-02T06:13:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/arena-product-marketing-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/arena-product-marketing-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-02T13:59:58Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":19127,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-03T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1017},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1017"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Farena-product-marketing-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Farena-product-marketing-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Farena-product-marketing-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/arena-product-marketing-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Farena-product-marketing-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3482557}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"arena.ai","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3482557},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
