About Eventual
Every breakthrough AI application—from foundation models to AI agents to autonomous vehicles—requires processing massive amounts of images, video, and complex data. But here's the problem: today's data platforms (Databricks, Snowflake, etc) are built on top of tools made for spreadsheet-like business analytics and SQL queries, not petabytes of multimodal information. This forces teams to waste months building complex infrastructure instead of solving the problems that are core to their business.
Our cofounders started Eventual in 2022 out of frustration with this exact challenge. Our mission is simple: make querying any type of data—images, video, audio, text—as intuitive as working with tables, yet powerful enough to handle petabytes at production scale. Unlike traditional engines with hardcoded operations, we handle the chaos of real production: coordinating with dozens of external APIs, managing GPU clusters, and turning the 0.1% failure rate that kills traditional systems into reliable execution. Our open-source engine Daft already powers critical AI workloads at companies such as Amazon, Mobileye, TogetherAI, and CloudKitchens, running on 800,000 CPU cores daily.
We've assembled a world-class team from Databricks, AnyScale, Tesla, and Lyft with deep expertise in high-performance computing and big data infrastructure. Backed with significant funding from YCombinator, Caffeinated Capital, Array.vc, and top angels from Databricks, Anthropic, Meta, and Lyft, we're building the generational technology that will enable entirely new classes of AI breakthroughs. We’re in the process of doubling our team, join us today!
Your Role
As Daft Eventual's founding Technical Product Marketing Manager, you'll architect our go-to-market strategy during a pivotal transition—taking our open source project commercial. You'll be one of our first marketing hires, shaping how we connect with developers, grow our community, and drive adoption.
You'll wear multiple hats as both community champion and GTM strategist—crafting technical content that excites developers, speaking at conferences, and working with enterprise prospects to showcase how Daft solves their challenges. You'll bridge our engineering innovations with the ML/AI developers who need them most.
If you're energized by growing both an open source community and commercial business simultaneously—and want to define how thousands of developers experience data processing in AI—this is your role.
Key Responsibilities
Developing and executing the go-to-market strategy for Daft, growing adoption across engineers and researchers working on the cutting edge of ML/AI
Keeping a pulse on the latest developments in ML/AI and data, crafting compelling content (blog posts, case studies, documentation) that demonstrates Daft's unique value propositions
Building relationships with key community members, contributors, and enterprise users
Working closely with engineering to bring the amazing technical capabilities we're building every day to life as content that resonates with our target users
Establishing metrics to measure adoption, engagement, and community growth
Evangelizing Daft at industry events, meetups, and conferences
Collaborating with enterprise customers to develop success stories and testimonials
