Community and Events Lead at Lightfield | LAYIQ

Run a prospect dinner program.
Design and execute intimate dinners that our target buyers rearrange their evening for. You'll own it end to end — the thesis for each dinner, the guest list, the venue, the seating, the conversation design, and the follow-up that turns a great night into real pipeline.
Run events at our San Francisco HQ.
Build a recurring rhythm of gatherings at our office that makes Lightfield a place people in the GTM world want to be.
Turn community into content.
Capture what's said at dinners, in sessions, and in the community, and turn it into material the rest of marketing can use — clips, posts, templates, and stories.
Build and run the Lightfield power user community.
Create a virtual community where the people getting the most out of Lightfield share what they've built. Recruit the founding members, seed the conversations, make the introductions, spotlight the best work, and grow it into something people check without being prompted.
Build programs that turn power users into advocates.
Design the structures — champion programs, template exchanges, office hours, user-led sessions — that give our best users a stage and give everyone else a reason to level up.
Close the loop with GTM.
Work tightly with sales on who to invite, what happened in the room, and what to do next. Every event and every community interaction should be visible in the pipeline, not just in a recap doc.
Own our presence at industry events.
Be the single point of accountability for tradeshows and conferences: which ones we attend, what we do there, the booth, the side events, the speaking slots, the staffing plan, and the budget. You'll make our presence feel deliberate rather than obligatory, and you'll know what we got for the spend.
Who you are
You're a world-class event operator.
You sweat the details — the guest list, the room composition, the timing, the first five minutes. You've shipped events end to end and can tell us about formats that worked and formats that didn't.
You know how to get busy, senior people to show up.
You write invitations people answer. You understand that who's in the room matters more than how many, and you're willing to say no to fill a seat properly.
You've built a community from nothing.
You know the difference between a Slack channel and a community, and you've done the unglamorous work of seeding the first hundred conversations yourself.
You're commercially minded.
You think about events and community as growth investments. You know which metrics matter, you track them, and you can make the case for where the next dollar goes.
You're a strong writer and communicator.
Crisp, no-fluff invites, follow-ups, and posts that get responses. You're comfortable on stage or moderating a panel, and you don't mind being a visible face of the community.
You're credible on GTM and passionate about AI.
You can hold your own in a conversation with a founder or a VP of Sales about how they're actually running their pipeline. You can talk go-to-market, not just "community."
You operate at & prefer early-stage pace.
You're comfortable wearing many hats, working without a playbook, holding a high bar under an intense pace and want to be in the middle of teams figuring this out in real time.
Nice to have
4+ years in community, events, or field marketing.
Experience running field marketing or events at a B2B SaaS company.
An existing network in the startup, GTM, or AI ecosystem.
Experience with community platforms and the tooling around them.
Video, photo, or content capture skills.
