About Polygraf AI

Polygraf AI redefines AI security for critical operations. Our proprietary Small Language Model (SLM) technology enables organizations to detect, explain, and mitigate AI risks – from data leakage and compliance violations to deepfakes and synthetic content – using local, explainable, and auditable AI solutions.

We’re award-winning and investor-backed: named ‘Best in Show’ at SXSW 2025 (winning in Enterprise, Smart Data, FinTech & Future of Work), recognized as Top AI & Data Product (2025), Top AI Governance Product and Top AI Content Detection Product (2024) by Products That Count, and ranked a Top Analytics Startup to Watch Globally by Dealroom.

About the Role

This is the first marketing hire at Polygraf AI, a ground-floor opportunity to build the marketing function of a fast-growing AI security company. You’ll work directly with the Founder, Head of Sales, and Head of Product to shape how the world discovers and understands Polygraf AI.

We’re looking for a curious, self-starting recent graduate (or soon-to-be graduate) who is native to social media, passionate about AI technology, and excited to leverage AI-powered tools within marketing and ad tech. If you spend your free time experimenting with new AI tools, posting about tech trends, or building a personal brand online – this role was made for you.

What You'll Do

Content & Thought Leadership

  • Create compelling long-form and short-form content (blog posts, short-form video, newsletters, whitepapers) that positions Polygraf AI as a leader in AI security
  • Collaborate with the Founder and Head of Product to translate complex AI security concepts into clear, engaging narratives
  • Identify and capitalize on trending AI conversations to insert Polygraf AI into the broader industry dialogue
  • Develop a consistent brand voice and messaging framework that can be applied across all channels and sales collateral

 

Social Growth & Audience Development

  • Own Polygraf’s social media presence end-to-end: LinkedIn, X, and emerging channels where security executives actually spend time.
  • Build and execute a content distribution strategy designed specifically to reach CISOs, CIOs, and CTOs – not vanity follower counts, but the 500 right people.
  • Build relationships with security-focused creators, analysts, and micro-influencers who have the ear of your target personas.

 

Demand Generation & Pipeline

    • Track, analyze, and report on marketing metrics; use data to iterate quickly and improve results
    • Support event marketing efforts, including conferences, webinars, and product launches
    • Partner with the Head of Sales to align marketing programs with pipeline goals and revenue targets

You Are

  • Recent graduate or final-semester student from an accredited university (all majors welcome, we value curiosity over credentials)
  • Social-media native with a strong personal or professional online presence you’re proud to share
  • Genuinely passionate about AI, emerging technology, and the evolving digital landscape
  • Self-starter who thrives in ambiguity and takes ownership without waiting to be told what to do
  • Strong writer and communicator who can make technical topics accessible and engaging
  • Comfortable working with data, experimenting with new tools, and learning fast
  • Bonus: internship experience in marketing, sales, or a related field

Why Join Polygraf AI

  • Ground-floor impact: Shape the marketing function of an award-winning AI startup from day one
  • Work with leadership: Report directly to the Founder and collaborate daily with the Head of Sales and Head of Product
  • High-growth trajectory: Fast-track your career in one of the most exciting and consequential spaces in tech
  • AI-forward culture: Work at a company that builds AI security tools and uses AI to get things done
  • Flexibility: Austin-based or fully remote within the US
As an equal opportunity employer, we highly value diversity and inclusion. We recognize that a diverse team brings unique perspectives, fosters ongoing innovation, and deepens our connection to the global community we serve. If you’re enthusiastic about spearheading the next era of generative AI and leaving a profound impact on how individuals and brands create, we’re eager to have you join our team.
