About the Role We are looking for a Senior Director of Marketing Engineering to own and operate Four’s marketing function end‑to‑end, including paid acquisition, organic growth, brand, and content. This role is powered by AI agents and automation and is designed for someone who thrives on leverage, experimentation, and ownership. You will start as the marketing team, building AI‑driven workflows that produce the output of a much larger organization. As you demonstrate what is possible and push the limits of AI‑first marketing, the team will grow around you—but only after you have maximized the leverage that modern automation makes possible. This is not a traditional marketing role. You will not rely on outside agencies or third‑party vendors. You will own strategy, systems, execution, creative, campaigns, and measurement yourself. At Four, we believe the future of marketing belongs to people who can think like strategists, create like artists, and build like engineers. This is a fully remote role with Eastern U.S. time zone alignment required. Miami‑based is a plus but not required. Periodic travel to Miami, FL and Draper, UT is expected for planning and key events.
