Description
Venturi Astrolab, Inc. (Astrolab) is pioneering new ways to explore and operate on distant planetary bodies. We are singularly focused on designing, building, and operating a fleet of multi-purpose commercial planetary rovers to extend and enhance humanity’s presence in the solar system. We are seeking motivated, creative, and exceptional people to join our world-class team.
As our Marketing Manager, you will be the core execution engine driving our digital presence and campaign deployment as we build the future of lunar operations.

You will spend your days collaborating cross-functionally with our engineering, sales, and social leadership, translating complex aerospace capabilities into our brand voice, high-impact content for investors, space agencies, and the public. From setting up our foundational CRM workflows and scaling output with modern AI tools to managing the logistics for content productions, you will handle whatever gets thrown over the fence with agility, speed, and a relentless focus on execution.
