Tyba is a modeling platform for energy companies developing, financing, and operating renewable energy. Energy companies rely on technical models daily to make crucial infrastructure decisions. Our mission is to make cutting-edge models accessible to cross-functional teams such that companies can build and operate more renewable energy more profitably.

We apply data science, AI/ML prediction, optimization, and physical modeling to a range of applications that support decision-making, from early-stage siting of power plants to the daily operations of energy storage and solar projects. Our customers access these models via an easy-to-use web application or programmatically through our API and rely on the accuracy of our models and the performance of our software.

You will work directly with Tyba’s founding team (CEO and COO) to set the marketing strategy and then execute it. We are seeing strong early traction, but have a lot of work to build the foundation for our marketing strategy - including positioning & messaging, and figuring out what channels will help us grow fastest. We have a good idea of our ideal customer and need to build a strategy to reach them with a compelling value prop.

• Launches: Plan and execute product launches from strategy to messaging, channel strategy, and measurement; collaborating with product, sales, and customer success.
• Lifecycle marketing: Create content and messaging for email drip campaigns throughout the customer lifecycle.

• Product marketing depth: With core competencies in positioning, messaging, and launch management.
• Marketing breadth: You understand channel, content, and comms strategy in addition to product marketing strategy.
• Writing ability: You’ve written short-form and long-form content, and can point to examples of your writing.
• High-quality bar: You've developed marketing strategies and tactics that put the customer first, while hitting growth goals at the same time.
• Interest in our product/mission-aligned/values-aligned: Knowledge of clean tech or strong desire to learn about these topics quickly.
