Position Overview

We are seeking a full-time Director of Strategic Events & Event Brand Experiences to lead Axe Compute's events program. The Director owns the strategy, planning and execution of the program: sourcing the right opportunities, securing speaking slots, designing experiences that convert enterprise buyers and investors, and delivering every event on brand and within budget.

The Director leads event selection and planning, brings recommendations on calendar, scope and spend to the CMO for approval, and collaborates with the CMO to ensure every event supports Axe's broader brand messaging and marketing strategy.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and maintain the Axe Compute master events calendar, covering every conference, sponsorship, speaking engagement and hosted experience, with tier, budget, status and expected outcome for each.
• Lead event selection: source opportunities across AI infrastructure, GPU cloud, enterprise AI, data center and capital-markets audiences, and recommend which events to add, keep or drop, for CMO approval, based on demand potential for Axe Compute Build, target-account and investor presence, cost and timing.
• Secure speaking slots: track calls for papers, draft abstracts with the CMO, submit and manage follow-through
• Find, negotiate and manage venues, vendors and production partners within Axe's procurement process.
• Propose each event with a line-item cost estimate, target accounts, staffing and a measurable outcome before it is confirmed.
• Track event effectiveness and success as aligned with company goals to measure ROI.
• Deliver a small number of high-end experiences (executive dinners, private suites at major conferences, investor gatherings) and a repeatable, lower-cost presence program for the rest of the calendar.
• Keep every event within its approved budget; flag projected overages before they are committed.
• Coordinate Sales, Investor Relations, Content and executive participation for each event; measure results and report monthly to the CMO and quarterly to the CMO and CEO.

Qualifications

• 10+ years leading B2B events or experiential marketing, including executive- and investor-facing programs.

• Demonstrated budget ownership and vendor negotiation across venues, production and hospitality.
• Experience building repeatable event playbooks and measuring pipeline impact in a CRM.
• Comfort working on a lean team at a fast-moving public company; AI infrastructure, enterprise technology or capital-markets exposure preferred.
• Willingness to travel to major events planned.

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation and equity in a Nasdaq-listed company.
• Remote work within the U.S., with travel to events.
