We help districts protect staff and students from cyber threats, meet compliance requirements, and raise digital literacy through AI-powered simulations, real-world phishing detection, and role-based training.

We are scaling very rapidly and now hiring a VP of Marketing to build our marketing engine, define our narrative, and drive predictable pipeline growth.

🎯 Role Overview

The VP of Marketing is a high-impact, hands-on leadership role responsible for developing and executing CyberNut’s full marketing strategy. You will own demand generation, product marketing, brand, content, events, AI-enhanced GTM systems, and team building.

This is a player–coach role: you will lead, hire, and manage, but also roll up your sleeves and do the work yourself when needed. If you enjoy getting in the weeds and getting your hands dirty, you will thrive here.

Your goal is to turn early traction into a scalable, predictable, repeatable growth engine.
