About the Job

Dagster Labs has grown primarily through word-of-mouth and recommendations from early adopters. We have also driven awareness through a high-quality content marketing strategy.

The primary vehicle has been the Dagster blog, supplemented by YouTube and social media channels like Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube. The Dagster blog posts average 1.4K page views per day with spikes of 5K to 14K views per day.

We are now hiring a dedicated content manager to take our content marketing strategy to a new level. The role’s success will be measured by the impact on overall web traffic and conversion to MQLs and Dagster Cloud signups.

This is a full-time, competitively-paid position with benefits.

We are a distributed team and we are hiring fully remote candidates in the U.S.

Every employee is provided a remote work stipend to cover the cost of home office equipment and anything else that makes your remote work location comfortable, productive, or successful. And if you’d rather not work from home, we’ll cover the cost of a coworking or office space if you’re fully remote.
