Founding Head of Marketing

About this role

ABOUT NEVOYA:

Nevoya is North America's leading next-generation electric trucking carrier, transforming logistics through AI-native operations and relentless customer focus. The company builds and uses proprietary technology to deliver zero-emissions carrier services to Fortune 500 shippers with superior economics and service to legacy diesel operators. The company has operations in California and Texas, and is backed by globally-renowned investors including Lowercarbon Capital.

About The Role:

We are looking for a Founding Head of Marketing to build our brand and public narrative from the ground up. This is a single owner, founding role reporting to our Cofounder and CCO, with a clear path to building out a team as the company grows. The mandate is brand and narrative first, not lead generation. Our commercial fundamentals are already strong. We have built a large active pipeline with no outbound or sales team, and count F500 companies among our customers. Almost none of that story is in the market yet, and the category we should own is still unclaimed.

The ideal candidate will own the full narrative and content engine end to end, from positioning through production, while running the function in a genuinely AI native way. This is both an efficiency requirement and a credibility signal, since a company built on an AI native story should be run that way internally too.

What You'll Do:

- Own our brand and category narrative, including how it evolves as the company scales

- Build and run the full content engine across channels, from strategy through actual production

- Own earned media, PR strategy, and analyst relations end to end, including managing and upgrading agency relationships

- Use brand and content work to directly support active commercial and fundraising conversations

- Build out a small team as the scope grows beyond a single owner

- Operate using AI tools as core infrastructure for drafting, editing, research, and production, not as a supplementary tool

- Reduce the amount of time founders spend on panel prep, press response, and content drafting

- Strengthen our employer brand to support hiring as the team scales

What You'll Bring To The Table:

- 7 to 10 years of experience in marketing or brand, ideally as the first marketing or brand hire at a Series A stage climate tech or deep tech company

- A track record of building a narrative and positioning system from zero and managing agencies with real accountability

- Demonstrable brand and narrative craft, with work you can show rather than just describe

- A genuinely AI native operating style, using AI tools as core infrastructure today rather than as an aspiration

- Comfort being the entire function in the early stage, with the ability to scale into a team lead role later

- Strong writing skills and a real feel for brand voice

Desired Experience:

- Logistics, supply chain, freight, or broader industrial B2B marketing background, for example from companies like Project44, FourKites, Flexport, Motive, or Convoy

- Fluency in F500 procurement and sustainability officer language

- Direct experience marketing a company through a fundraise

AT NEVOYA, WE BELIEVE DIVERSE TEAMS BUILD BETTER SOLUTIONS.

We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming environment for all employees. We consider all qualified applicants regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic.

If you're excited about our mission but your experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be the right candidate for this or another role.
