## 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

Every Zipline market grows differently. Customer behavior, commercial priorities, competition, partnerships, and local opportunities vary from city to city. We're looking for a Marketing Manager to own the strategy that turns those local realities into measurable market growth.

You'll own marketing strategy and performance for the Atlanta market, determining where marketing can have the greatest business impact and aligning the organization around those priorities. Success means driving measurable growth across awareness, customer acquisition, referrals, merchant launches, and overall market performance.

You'll serve as the marketing leader for Atlanta, partnering closely with Commercial, Operations, Community Engagement, Communications, and the broader Marketing organization. While each team owns its area of expertise, you'll define the market strategy, set priorities, and ensure our collective efforts drive measurable business results.

## What You'll Do

- Own the marketing strategy, priorities, and performance for Atlanta, from launch through ongoing growth.
- Develop a deep understanding of Atlanta audiences, customer behavior, merchant needs, and local opportunities to focus marketing where it can have the greatest impact.
- Build and execute integrated campaigns across paid and owned channels, lifecycle, partner marketing, community engagement, and local activations.
- Coordinate  across  Commercial, Operations, Community Engagement, and Marketing to align campaign plans, timing and responsibilities
- Bring customer and market insights back to the broader Marketing team to improve our work in Atlanta and inform future market launches.
- Set clear goals, measure results, and adjust the plan as the market grows.

## What You'll Bring

- 6–8 years of experience in integrated marketing, growth marketing, local market marketing, or a related field. Experience in product or partner marketing is a plus.
- Experience building campaigns that bring multiple channels together to drive measurable growth.
- Strong business judgment and the ability to prioritize opportunities based on business impact.
- Experience leading complex cross-functional initiatives and aligning stakeholders  without direct authority.
- Clear communication skills, including the ability to write creative briefs and work effectively with partners and stakeholders.
- The ability to set campaign goals, assess performance, and use data to recommend where to invest.
- Comfort operating in ambiguity and adapting quickly as business needs evolve.
- Ability to work onsite in Atlanta, Georgia
