About Matrix AI

Matrix AI is an Australian and US technology company working towards an AI-based orchestration of cyberphysical systems. We are developing an ecosystem of technologies, with a spotlight on Polykey (https://polykey.com), our open-source decentralized secrets management system (https://github.com/MatrixAI/Polykey). Polykey is instrumental for secure, zero-trust authority delegation across cyber-physical infrastructures, playing a crucial role in the next decade's computing landscape.

Our team of 7 is based in Sydney Australia, and this marketing role will be first in the United States.

About Polykey

See this demo video we recently created:

Polykey is a decentralized peer-to-peer secrets management system that offers a unique approach to the secure delegation of authority. It is designed to enable users and organizations to manage cybersecurity risks by facilitating zero trust workflows. The platform serves as a secure and private method to store, manage, and share secrets—such as keys, tokens, certificates, and passwords—across individuals, teams, and machine infrastructures.

The core principles of Polykey include the Zero Trust Delegation of Authority, which is crucial for organizations scaling their digital and physical operations. This framework views secrets as tokenized authorities rather than mere data strings, embedding sophisticated delegation abstractions and logic within the system. Polykey allows for the integration into CI environments or other workflows, which is essential for zero-trust sharing of secrets and tracking authority.

Polykey also emphasizes the importance of a 'Cloudless' decentralized approach, ensuring that secrets are not stored with any third party. Instead, they are kept in encrypted virtual filesystems known as Vaults, which are version-controlled with a real Git database. This design supports privacy and data sovereignty, as well as the ease of backup and synchronization across devices.

Another significant aspect of Polykey is the Discovery via Web of Social Trust, which involves claiming digital identities and discovering trusted nodes through well-known digital profiles, such as GitHub. This fosters a secure network of trusted identities for sharing and managing secrets.

Role Overview:

We are on the lookout for a Technical Product Marketer with a focus on cybersecurity and AI. This role will be instrumental in driving engagement and adoption of our Polykey ecosystem. Your expertise will help us build a robust community and achieve our key metric: increased usage. You will be responsible for crafting and refining our marketing strategy, creating compelling documentation and blog content, and leveraging analytics to optimize our engagement strategies.

Based in Austin, Texas, this position is a hybrid contract role in Austin Texas. Because the development team is in Australia, this role does involve flexible work time in order to make meetings.

If you started out in software, but preferred to growth-hack instead and write content, then this could be the perfect role for you. If you started out as a marketer, and started to get involved into technology, then this could also be the perfect role.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and review marketing strategy tailored for Polykey targeting developers, government and organisations who have cyberphysical infrastructure.

• Create and maintain in-depth documentation (external and internal), translating complex technical details into clear, user-friendly language that can help customers and internal team members.

• Develop engaging blog posts that interweave Polykey’s features with broader tech and social trends, including privacy, trust, cybersecurity, web3, and AI.

• Get involved with meetups and events such as our company's https://www.meetup.com/cybersecurity-digital-trust/ in Sydney, and to cultivate meetups and events in the US

• Utilize analytics to monitor engagement and refine content strategies for optimal reach and impact.

• Foster the growth of the Polykey community, tracking participation metrics across digital platforms such as Discord and GitHub.

• Collaborate with design and development teams to create features and materials that bolster external engagement and uphold content-branding standards.

• Develop material for the upcoming Polykey Enterprise - a SaaS control plane for Polykey

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Computer Science, Business Administration, or a related field.

• Preferred 1 year experience in technical marketing, or in technology-related work, preferably with a product in the cybersecurity, web3, SaaS, or cloud technology space.

• Understanding of the cybersecurity landscape, especially in decentralized systems and zero-trust architectures.

• Exceptional communication skills, capable of translating complex technical concepts into user-friendly language.

• Demonstrated project management and leadership skills, with a history of influencing cross-functional teams.

• Strong analytical abilities with experience in leveraging market research and engagement metrics for strategic insights.

• Must have legal authorization to work in the USA and preferentially located in or around Austin, Texas, with remote work as an option.
