About the job

About Lumafield
Lumafield builds industrial X-ray CT scanners and physical AI software that let engineers see inside the things they make without cutting anything apart. Founded in 2019, the company sells a platform of scanners and analysis software to manufacturers in medical devices, batteries, automotive, electronics, aerospace & defense, and consumer products. In September 2026 we introduced Quality Agent, an agentic AI system that learns what a good part looks like and finds defects nobody thought to look for.
Our $75M Series C was led by IVP, with G2 Venture Partners and Wellington Management joining Spark Capital, DCVC, Kleiner Perkins, Lux Capital, and Matter Venture Partners.
Our scans have been widely featured in top-tier press like the Financial Times, NYT Wirecutter, and the Verge, and we’ve built owned channels that engineers love, like Scan of the Month and the Go/No-Go podcast, viral social media hits on Instagram, Reddit, and X, and fruitful collaborations with creators like Linus Tech Tips, Adam Savage, and Mark Rober.

Lumafield is headquartered in San Francisco, CA. and has an office in Cambridge, MA. 
 
Why this role exists
We’ve made our scans famous. Now we’re investing in our marketing program to make our brand famous to the people who decide whether to deploy us across a factory network: VPs and C-level leaders in engineering, manufacturing, and quality, plus investors, policymakers, and the engineers we want to hire.
We’re looking for an experienced, energetic leader who’s able to tell clear stories through owned editorial, external communications, social media, and overall brand expression.
This role is a senior leadership position and manages a growing, high-performing team.

All employees receive stock options in addition to salary. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage and a 401(k).
This role is in our San Francisco office, in a building where scanners run and there is always something interesting to look inside.
Lumafield is an equal opportunity employer. If you're close but not a perfect match on one dimension, tell us which one and why the rest of the case is strong.
