Strong sales enablement skills and strategic market awareness are also essential for this role. | Company Intro At Sift, we’re redefining how modern machines are built, tested, and operated. Our platform gives engineers real-time observability over high-frequency telemetry, eliminating bottlenecks and enabling faster, more reliable development. Sift was born from our work at SpaceX on Dragon, Falcon, Starlink, and Starship—where scaling telemetry, debugging flight systems, and ensuring mission reliability demanded new infrastructure. Founded by a team from SpaceX, Google, and Palantir, Sift is built for mission-critical systems where precision and scalability are non-negotiable. Description Sift is hiring a technical communicator to help us go to market more effectively at a critical moment in our growth. Our platform is used by the most advanced engineering teams in aerospace, defense, and next-gen manufacturing. Reporting to the VP of Marketing, this is an individual contributor role today, with the opportunity to shape and grow the function over time. As product velocity increases, you’ll ensure we can continuously translate technical innovation into compelling, field-ready messaging without pulling product and engineering into every conversation. You’ll scale enablement, lead technical storytelling, and help drive customer education in a category where expectations are evolving, technology is moving fast, but prospects still rely on legacy tools and workflows. The ideal candidate combines the instincts of a developer advocate with the strategic judgment of a GTM leader. You’ll work closely with product, design, and sales to build content that lands with both engineering teams and executive buyers. This role blends product marketing, market education, and field insight to help us tell a sharper story to support sales efforts. Key Responsibilities Continuously Improve Sales Enablement: Build and maintain sales collateral and assets that evolve with the product. Create field-ready decks, demo flows, talk tracks, and objection-handling tools. Help us scale the sales team without scaling dependency on product and engineering. Make Customer Education a First-Class Product: Help engineers onboard faster and understand the “why” behind Sift. Collaborate on demos, product & feature walkthroughs, and technical content that makes our value self-evident. Highlight Sift’s Engineering Advantage: Translate deep technical decisions into competitive advantage. Partner with product and forward-deployed engineers to identify what sets us apart, and tell that story in credible, memorable ways across every channel. Own Competitive & Market Positioning: Monitor adjacent tools and lookalike platforms. Make sure we’re defining the category, not reacting to it. Build tools and messaging that equip the field to defend our position and shift customer perception. Showcase Momentum & Social Proof: Turn customer wins into strategic assets. Build and scale content programs (case studies, event collateral, press) that demonstrate adoption, traction, and credibility, especially in defense, aerospace, and capital markets. Drive Launch Strategy & Messaging: Support GTM execution for new features and product lines. Define launch scope, partner with teams across the company, and own the messaging that introduces Sift to new audiences or capabilities. The Skillset You Bring Deep Technical Fluency: You’ve worked as an engineer, developer, or solutions architect, or spent years adjacent to technical teams. You know how real-world systems are built and can speak with credibility to engineering buyers. Backgrounds in electrical, aerospace, or embedded systems are a strong plus. Proven Storytelling Instincts: You’ve written technical blogs, product content, tutorials, or launch messaging that engineers actually use. You know how to explain why something matters not just how it works. GTM Execution Across Channels: You’ve contributed to product launches, sales campaigns, or competitive positioning. You understand how technical messaging shows up across the funnel from web copy to battlecards to founder decks. Strong Sales Enablement Muscles: You’ve worked with sales before and understand what they need to move deals forward. You can create high-fidelity content that scales effectively. Strategic Market Awareness: You know how to frame a product in a way that matters to the customer and resonates in the market. You can zoom out to tell a compelling story about the space, the problem, and the stakes. Operational Ownership: You’ve worked across functions and know how to take initiative, gather context, and get things shipped. You can turn a high-level idea into something concrete without much oversight. Bias for Action: You’re comfortable operating without a playbook. You thrive in early-stage environments where things change weekly, and you know how to turn velocity into learning. Mission Orientation: You’re drawn to meaningful problems, not just clever ones. You care deeply about the products engineers rely on to build what’s next. Location: Sift’s headquarters is in El Segundo, CA.

Sift was born from our work at SpaceX on Dragon, Falcon, Starlink, and Starship—where scaling telemetry, debugging flight systems, and ensuring mission reliability demanded new infrastructure. Founded by a team from SpaceX, Google, and Palantir, Sift is built for mission-critical systems where precision and scalability are non-negotiable. As an early engineer at Sift, you won’t just write code—you’ll help define the architecture, shape the product, and influence the culture of a company focused on solving real engineering problems. If you’re looking for complex technical challenges and the opportunity to build foundational systems supporting complex machines from the ground up, we want to hear from you. In This Role, You'll: Build high-performance data visualization interfaces and reusable component libraries for complex telemetry data Create intuitive user interfaces for data exploration while optimizing for large real-time datasets Collaborate with backend teams on API design and implementation for seamless user experiences Write clean, maintainable code and participate in technical design discussions The Skillset You'll Bring: 5+ years of professional experience building web applications and data-driven tools Strong experience building production applications with technologies like React, NextJS, and TypeScript Strong understanding of web performance optimization and browser rendering Experience with modern CSS (Tailwind) and component libraries (Radix UI) for building design systems Bonus Points: Experience with technical visualization tools (WebGL, D3.js, Apache ECharts) and time-series data Knowledge of WebAssembly and browser-based computation Background in scientific computing or technical data visualization Experience building tools for technical users (dashboards, data-editing environments) Built and launched side projects with consistent usage traffic Engineering At Sift: You'll have the opportunity to help evolve and scale our platform because we're still in the early stages of building the product. Relevant technologies include: Web frontend & backend: React, TypeScript, Redux, Tailwind, WebAssembly, D3.js, WebGL, and Go Data: Parquet, Flink, Kafka, Redpanda, Beam, DuckDB, Timescale, QuestDB, InfluxDB, and Druid Infrastructure: GitHub Actions, AWS, Azure, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform Location: The Sift team is based in El Segundo, CA, and we collaborate in person twice a week—Mondays and Thursdays. We work closely with LA’s leading hardware companies, from autonomous vehicle manufacturers to spacecraft builders. Proximity matters for site visits and deep collaboration, so we prefer candidates local to Los Angeles. We are open to relocation and for exceptional talent we’re open to remote work from the San Francisco Bay Area. Salary range: $170,000 - $220,000 per year. Plus equity and benefits. Eligibility: US Person Required: Must be a U.S. Citizen or Green Card Holder due to ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) / EAR (Export Administration Regulations) compliance requirements.
