At HackerRank, we are on a mission to change the world to value skills over pedigree. We are a high-performing, mission-driven team that truly, madly, deeply cares about what we do. We don’t see velocity and quality as tradeoffs; both matter. If you take pride in high-impact work and thrive in a driven team, HackerRank is where you belong.
About the team:
The brand and corporate communications team’s role is to amplify HackerRank’s vision to the world. We are the ones who bring clarity and constant communication to our community of talent and technical professionals. We are all deeply curious about the shifts happening in the AI-era and want to leave our mark on the narrative.
About the role:
We’re looking for a strategic storyteller and high-output content leader to elevate our voice in the AI conversation and build cultural relevance around our brand. You’ll shape and execute a bold content vision—crafting narrative arcs that span from manifestos to billboards, from Sunday podcasts to weekly blogs—and ensure that our thought leadership breaks through the noise.
This is not a role for someone who waits for assignments. We need a builder: someone who lives and breathes modern marketing, works cross-functionally, and owns the end-to-end creation and distribution of content that makes people think, share, and take action.
What you’ll do:
- Amplify our next-gen hiring and upskilling message through landing pages, videos, and presentations
- Define an inspiring content strategy: What we say, where we say it, and why it matters.
- Own the weekly “This Week in AI” podcast/video series, from content planning to production.
- Own distribution across channels—working closely with social, growth, and influencers to amplify reach and resonance.
- Partner with the social and growth teams to align content goals with acquisition and awareness priorities.
You will thrive in this role if:
- You create modern content pieces - no boring webinars or keynotes.
- You are passionate about having an influence on the emerging technology landscape.
- You have a track record of strategy + execution.
- You bring content leadership to the table.
What you bring:
- At least 3 years content development and strategy experience in the field of technology, programming, tech recruiting, and/or the future of work
- A rich portfolio of digital work, spanning large reports, white papers, corporate blogs, news/media commentary, webinars, speaking engagements, and more
- Exceptional editorial judgment and a knack for finding and elevating a story
- Experience building a brand voice and holding standards across the company
- Project management experience required
- [Bonus] Experience with data visualization tools a plus
- [Bonus] Experience with creative/art direction a plus
- [Bonus] Experience designing and/or leading training programs on technical topics a plus
