About Zipline

Zipline is the world’s largest and most experienced drone delivery service. We are on a mission to serve all humans equally by ensuring access to food, medicine and essential goods anytime, anywhere. We design, build, and operate the world’s largest autonomous logistics system, delivering critical supplies quickly and reliably. Today, Zipline operates on four continents, makes a delivery somewhere in the world every 30 seconds, and has completed millions of deliveries to date, including blood, vaccines, medical supplies, food, and retail products.

Our customers include the world’s largest and most prominent healthcare systems, governments, retailers, restaurants and global businesses who rely on us to save lives, reduce emissions, increase economic opportunity, and provide delivery from point A to point B as fast as possible. The drone is only 15% of what we’ve built to enable seamless, reliable, global operations.

Our system strengthens supply chains, reduces congestion, and gives people time back. With more than 140 million commercial autonomous miles safely flown, Zipline is redefining access to healthcare, consumer products, and food across the globe.

We operate at a global scale and are looking for practical problem solvers who thrive on real-world challenges and rapid growth. Our team is motivated by building systems that have a direct, meaningful impact on people’s lives and by scaling the future of logistics. We are seeking people who sculpt from first principles, enjoy facing adversity, and can do the impossible at record breaking speeds.

About You and The Role

We are looking for a Product Marketing Lead to define and own how Zipline’s product comes to life, internally and externally. Our product is powerful, fast-moving, and deeply technical, and this role will help ensure that its full potential is clearly articulated through a cohesive narrative, thoughtful positioning, and well-timed storytelling.

You will sit at the intersection of engineering, marketing, and leadership to bring structure, clarity, and momentum to how our product evolves and how it is experienced. While engineering owns product development, you will help shape how priorities are framed, how capabilities are bundled into compelling stories, and how progress is communicated to the world.

This is a foundational role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, sees patterns early, and can translate rapid technical progress into clear vision and impact.

What You'll Do

Define the Product Narrative

Establish a clear, cohesive story for Zipline’s product, including vision, value, and evolution over time.
Bring structure and flow to how the app, platform, and capabilities are positioned and explained.
Translate complex technical capabilities into simple, compelling narratives for diverse audiences.

Shape Launch Strategy and Milestones

Own product and feature launches end-to-end, from positioning and messaging to rollout strategy.
Create a strategy for bundling multiple feature improvements into meaningful, story-driven moments.
Ensure major milestones, including new capabilities, scale improvements, and performance gains, are recognized, communicated, and celebrated internally and externally.

Partner Deeply with Engineering

Work closely with engineering leadership to understand roadmaps, tradeoffs, and technical progress.
Help bring clarity to how roadmaps are framed and communicated, without owning product management outright.
Act as the connective tissue between what is being built and how it shows up in market.

Build the Product Marketing Foundation

Establish product marketing principles, processes, and artifacts that scale as the product matures.
Create core messaging frameworks, product narratives, and launch playbooks.
Bring discipline and intentionality to how new features, upgrades, and performance improvements are introduced.
