Marketing Manager

Empromptu is an early-stage AI application builder designed for companies that need to ship real, enterprise-ready AI features without expanding their team or rewriting their platform.

We exist because 95% of AI features never make it to production. Teams are under pressure from customers, investors, and competitors to “add AI,” but face impossible tradeoffs: slow internal builds, expensive hiring, risky rewrites, or prototype tools that never scale.

Empromptu solves this by extending product roadmaps with AI features that manage themselves. Our platform builds complete production-ready AI applications, frontend, backend, models, and observability, integrates directly into existing SaaS infrastructure, handles large-scale context across hundreds of documents, and improves itself in production instead of becoming a maintenance burden.

We work with companies that are engineering-constrained, roadmap-heavy, and actively losing deals or retention to AI-enabled competitors.

Think of Empromptu as: shipping AI features in days instead of quarters without team expansion or platform rewrites.

Role Impact

This is not a traditional “marketing manager” role. You will own the entire go-to-market motion end to end.

Your work will directly:

• Drive pipeline, revenue, and growth
• Shape how the market understands Empromptu and self-managing AI features
• Turn early traction into a repeatable GTM engine
• Support customers and close the feedback loop between product, users, and messaging

You'll be responsible for launching Empromptu into the market, creating demand, educating buyers, supporting customers, and building the marketing infrastructure that allows the company to scale.

• Experience bringing a new product to market
• Proven ability to generate and grow revenue
