The opportunity
Cryptography has moved to center stage. AI that can fake anyone, quantum computers that threaten today’s encryption, and money moving onchain have made it a strategic priority worldwide.
TACEO builds the cryptographic infrastructure for that world. As our first Head of Marketing, you’ll work alongside one of the most talented teams in the field. They’ve designed post-quantum cryptography standards the blockchain world uses by default.
The vision is big, but the job isn’t fuzzy. For the next 6–12 months, the goal is concrete: make inroads into financial services with a product we’ve just launched.
What we’ve built
Our first two verticals run on some of the most sensitive data there is: Identity proved our technology at scale. Finance is where we’re taking it next.
- Identity, proven at scale. For the pioneer of proof-of-human infrastructure, we took encrypted biometric matching from academic concept to millions of users. It’s the largest encrypted-compute deployment ever, and it took a 100,000x performance improvement on the state of the art.
- Finance, just launched. Financial institutions want blockchains for their 24/7 availability, liquidity, and low costs, but can’t accept that everything on them is public. We brought our proven encrypted-compute technology to this problem: control, privacy, and verifiability in one solution, even across multiple chains. We launched the beta in September and won the pitch final at Sibos, Swift’s annual banking conference, in Miami.
The job
Our technology is ahead of our story, and in finance it’s now all about go-to-market. Leadership sets TACEO’s overall positioning; you own everything that brings it to market, starting with financial services. The first use cases are in stablecoins and tokenization, especially cross-border payments, treasury management, and tokenized deposits. You'll own our campaigns end to end: planning them, building them, running them, and measuring what they returned.
In your first 6–12 months, success means two things:
- Pipeline. A steady stream of quality leads that you hand to our business development team and that turn into customers. This is the core of the role.
- Familiarity. The people we want to work with know who TACEO is and understand why we matter. Our team speaks at major events regularly; you don’t need to be be the one on stage, but you’ll make every talk travel far beyond the room. When we meet someone at a conference, we want to hear: “Oh yes, I’ve seen you somewhere.”
You
- You have 5+ years in marketing, including at least 2 in a senior role where you owned strategy, budget, and results.
- You’ve done it before in B2B tech, ideally at a scale-up: you’ve built or scaled a marketing function, launched a product, or driven measurable pipeline and revenue growth. You know how to turn content, campaigns, and events into qualified leads.
- Ideally, you’ve marketed technical products to financial services or similarly demanding B2B customers.
- You execute exceptionally well: you don’t stop at the plan, you ship it, measure it, and improve it.
- You write most of the words yourself and make deep tech clear and compelling without dumbing it down.
- AI is central to how you work. You use it to multiply your output, not to produce more mediocre content.
