San Francisco, California, United States Lumos Full time

In 2011, Mark Andreessen famously said, "Software is eating the world." 10+ years later, software hasn't just nibbled, it has indulged in a lavish ten-course feast at a Michelin star restaurant. From Slack to Zoom to Figma, software is embedded in every company's DNA. And while most just get to enjoy the benefits, there is one unsung hero behind it all: IT

While being flooded with never ending IT tickets, they are also making sure Guy Fieri in Sales doesn't buy yet another tool "promising" a 103% lead conversion rate. And burying themselves in spreadsheets to prepare the SOC2 report for when Gordon Ramsey from the Big 4 comes knocking. And can't forget about Julia Child, the newest on-call engineer, who needs access to prod DB to investigate an incident. All of these workstreams are among spreadsheets, emails, Slack messages, and Zoom calls. But those days are numbered.

Let there be Lumos

Lumos is building the first AppHQ for companies. In essence, we are creating the meta app, the source-of-truth for companies to manage all their apps.

Why Lumos?

  • Rocketship Growth: In less than two years, our team has grown from 20 to ~80 brilliant minds across Canada, the United States and South America. Our customer base has more than 10x'd with some pretty incredible names like SiriusXM, GitHub, and Intercom.
  • Backed by Industry Leaders: Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) has backed us since the beginning. We have a team of trusted advisors including Joel De La Garza (partner at a16z and previous Chief Security Officer at Box) and Leland Maschmeyer (the design thinker behind Spotify and Microsoft)
  • Grow with us: You have the chance to be one of the first 100 people at Lumos. At Lumos, you will build your function from the ground up, get exposure to different aspects of the business developing a diverse skill set, and most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to pave your own path.

We are rewriting the IT playbook, one that better reflects our software eaten world.



Ready to shape the narrative for one of the fastest growing startups in Silicon Valley? You'll play a pivotal role in spearheading our brand's story as we step into our place as the industry's go-to and soon-to-be household name.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Strategic PR Maestro: You'll be the architect of our brand image as we continue our meteoric rise in the IT industry. You'll craft and execute PR strategies that will elevate us to new heights with expansive visibility and standing ovation public perception.
  • Influencer Engagement: You'll spearhead engagement with influencers in IT and Silicon Valley, tech evangelists, and thought leaders to position us as a trailblazer. Collaborating with industry luminaries is a critical aspect of the role, to amplify our impact and extend our reach.
  • Start-Up Storyteller: You'll develop compelling narratives that highlight our disruptive nature, attracting attention from selected media, influencers, and potential partners. The press releases, media kits, and other comms materials you'll create will evangelize this narrative and key messaging.
  • Media Relations: You'll cultivate and maintain relationships with key media outlets, journalists, and influencers and proactively pitch stories and secure media coverage in relevant publications.
  • Social Media Ghost Writing: You'll craft compelling content on behalf of our executive team and strategically share it across various social media platforms.

Attributes that would make us swoon:

  • Experience in PR, influencer engagement, preferable within the SaaS industry and startup environment.
  • Strong relationships with media outlets, industry influencers.
  • Familiarity with and an innate curiosity for industry trends and a proactive approach to staying informed.
  • Exceptional storytelling skills and a knack for creating compelling narratives and strategically sharing on social media to boost visibility on the company and executive level.

What We Value

Instead of focusing on what people need to have, we focus on what people need to do. Additionally, we try to find out whether you would be a good fit for Lumos based on our values that define how we achieve outcomes and what characteristics we value.

*We encourage you to apply even if you think you might not be perfect fit
