Field Marketing - Fellowship

Atlanta, GA | In-person + Travel | Rolling applications for Spring, Summer & Fall 2026 Most marketing happens behind a screen. This doesn't. The Field Marketing Fellow role is for someone who thrives in real life — organizing dinners, running workshops, building community, and creating moments that turn strangers into believers. You'll be the face of Obvious in cities where AI builders, founders, and small business owners are looking for an edge. This program is designed for new graduates or individuals without a degree who are available for a full-time commitment, not current college students. You'll host founder dinners in SF. Run small business AI workshops in Nashville. Organize hackathons at Georgia Tech, Stanford, and NYU. Create pop-up activations in Austin that people talk about for weeks. And you'll do it all with the autonomy to experiment, the budget to execute, and the backing of a company that's redefining what AI can do. This isn't event planning. It's field-building. You'll connect people, spark ideas, and create the kind of in-person energy that turns into momentum for Obvious. This isn't a 9-to-5. It's intense — fast iteration, high expectations, and a lot of building and shipping. If that sounds exhausting, this isn't for you. If that sounds like exactly what you've been looking for — keep reading. What You'll Do Marketing activations and pop-ups — Dream up and execute creative IRL campaigns. Coffee shop takeovers, co-working space pop-ups, guerrilla marketing stunts — whatever gets attention and drives awareness. Founder dinners — Curate and host intimate dinners (10-15 people) in major markets. You'll bring together the right people, set the vibe, and create conversations that lead to partnerships, customers, and word-of-mouth. Small business workshops — Design and run hands-on AI workshops for small business owners. You'll teach them how to use Obvious to save time, make better decisions, and grow faster — and you'll turn attendees into advocates. University hackathons — Organize and lead hackathons at top CS programs (Georgia Tech, Stanford, NYU, etc.). You'll recruit participants, secure sponsorships, coordinate logistics, and create experiences that get students excited about building with AI. Build community — Track attendees, follow up, nurture relationships. You'll turn one-time event participants into long-term community members and customers. Content and amplification — Document everything. Photos, videos, recaps. You'll work with the marketing team to turn IRL moments into digital content that extends the reach. Travel and represent — You'll spend time in Atlanta, but you'll also travel regularly to SF, NYC, Nashville, Austin, and wherever the opportunity is. You're comfortable on the road and energized by new cities. What We're Looking For New grad or no degree required. No current students — this requires full-time commitment. Natural connector — You're the person who walks into a room and knows how to make people feel welcome. You build rapport fast, remember names, and create environments where interesting conversations happen. Operational excellence — You can plan an event from scratch — venue, catering, A/V, signage, run-of-show. You sweat the details because you know they matter. Comfortable with ambiguity — There's no playbook for this role. You'll figure out what works through experimentation. You're resourceful, scrappy, and don't wait for permission. Strong communicator — You can write a compelling invite, give a clear workshop presentation, and hold a room's attention. You're articulate in person and online. Travel-ready — You're based in Atlanta but expect to travel 30-40% of the time. You're comfortable navigating new cities, managing logistics on the fly, and being away from home. AI-curious — You don't need to be an engineer, but you need to understand why AI matters and be able to talk about Obvious's value proposition with confidence. Entrepreneurial energy — You've organized something before — a club, a conference, a side hustle. You know how to rally people around an idea and make things happen. Relentlessly hardworking — This role is intense — fast iteration, high expectations, and a lot of building and shipping. You're driven to do exceptional work. What You'll Get $3,500 monthly salary — Full-time salaried exempt position (typical 3-month term). Paid bi-weekly via direct deposit. This is a temporary W-2 employment position. As a salaried exempt employee, you are not eligible for overtime pay or employer-provided benefits. High-performing team members may have opportunities for contract extensions or transition to permanent employment at market rate with equity. By then, we'll have seen exactly what you can do — no guessing, no interview theater. You'll leave this program as one of the most elite AI-savvy field marketing operators in the industry, with skills that don't exist anywhere else yet. Travel budget — Flights, hotels, event expenses covered. You'll see the country and build a network across major markets. Autonomy and ownership — You'll run your own events. No micromanagement. We'll give you the strategy and budget — you execute. Access to top-tier networks — You'll meet founders, investors, engineers, and operators in every city you visit. The relationships you build here will compound for years. Skill acceleration — You'll learn event marketing, community building, sales enablement, and content creation — all at once. It's a compressed MBA in field marketing. A front-row seat — You'll work directly with the GTM and product teams. You'll see how a $100M+ funded company operates and how field marketing drives pipeline.
