About Sapiom
Sapiom is payment infrastructure for AI companies and agents. One integration lets an agent pay on behalf of a person or a business, with permissions, protected card credentials, and spending rules built in.
Agents can think now, and increasingly they can act. What they can’t do is spend. The rails underneath assume a person at the keyboard, so teams fall back on closed catalogs, cards and API keys pasted into config, or a human approving every purchase. We’re removing that constraint. A customer connects a card and grants a named agent permission without leaving your product. They set the limits — per purchase, per merchant, approval required or not. The agent buys inside those limits across browser checkout, payment protocols, and APIs. Card details never enter the conversation, and every purchase leaves a record from approval through merchant confirmation.
The work spans the whole path a purchase takes: connecting a customer and their agent, vaulting the card, establishing agent identity, enforcing the rules, moving the payment, and making the outcome legible afterward. Card issuing, voice-initiated payments, payment recovery, and insurance are all part of where this goes.
We have assembled a team with deep infrastructure and payments DNA. Our founder ran payments engineering at Shopify for five years and built an autonomous consumer agent company before that. We raised a $35M Series A led by Dragonfly in August, bringing us to $50M total. Accel led our seed; Menlo Ventures and Anthropic are also behind us.
About the Role
This is a rare opportunity to build the growth engine for a category-defining infrastructure company — from scratch, at the moment it matters most. The ideal candidate is a sharp, execution-oriented marketer who’s fluent in both developer audiences and performance channels, and who thrives when the playbook doesn’t exist yet. You’ll own the full acquisition and retention loop — from first impression to activated user — partnering closely with the Head of Marketing to define how Sapiom shows up in the world.
What You Will Do
You’ll drive Sapiom’s growth across every channel that matters — demand gen, content, SEO, and developer community — building the systems and campaigns that move developers and enterprise buyers from awareness to activation. You’ll own the editorial and content strategy that establishes Sapiom’s voice in the agentic AI conversation, while running paid programs with the rigor and creativity to compound over time. You’ll work in close partnership with the Head of Marketing and collaborate across product and engineering to turn platform milestones into growth moments. The goal: a predictable, scalable pipeline built on a foundation of genuine developer trust and category authority.
Responsibilities
Own demand generation — build and run multi-channel campaigns across paid, organic, and community that drive qualified pipeline and measurable activation.
Define and ship the content and SEO strategy — producing technical and thought-leadership content that earns distribution and establishes Sapiom as the authoritative voice on AI agent infrastructure.
Build and grow Sapiom’s presence in developer and AI/ML communities — engaging authentically across forums, events, and platforms where builders spend time.
Partner with product and engineering to turn launches and milestones into growth moments — owning go-to-market execution for new features and integrations.
Establish the metrics and reporting infrastructure for marketing — defining what good looks like across acquisition, activation, and retention, and holding the function accountable to it.
Requirements
Demonstrated track record growing developer-facing or API-first products — with a genuine understanding of how technical buyers discover, evaluate, and adopt infrastructure tools.
Hands-on experience running demand gen and paid acquisition programs with measurable results — not just oversight, but direct ownership of strategy, spend, and iteration.
Strong content and SEO instincts — able to build an editorial calendar, write or direct compelling technical content, and understand how to earn organic distribution in a technical niche.
Experience building community or developer presence — whether through events, Discord, social, or co-marketing with ecosystem partners.
Early-stage startup experience — comfortable operating without established systems, defining the function as much as executing it.
Fintech, payments, or developer tools background — meaningful context for the infrastructure layer Sapiom is building and the audiences it serves.
Data-driven operator — able to instrument campaigns, read the numbers clearly, and translate findings into fast iteration cycles.
