Full Job Description
GTM Engineer (AI-First) About Kana Kana is the agentic marketing platform built for the AI era. Founded by the team behind Rapt (acquired by Microsoft) and Krux (acquired by Salesforce for $700M), Kana emerged from stealth in February 2026 with $15M in seed funding led by Mayfield. We deploy customizable AI agents that integrate with marketers' existing stacks rather than replacing them. Our platform handles campaign management, customer engagement, marketing intelligence, synthetic data generation, answer engine optimization, and media proposal generation – giving marketing teams a "third path" between building from scratch and buying off-the-shelf. We believe in augmented intelligence: AI that amplifies marketers, not replaces them. We're a small, senior team building deliberately. This is a ground-floor opportunity to shape Kana's GTM motion alongside two founders who have done this before. The Mission At Kana, we aren't looking for a traditional Growth Marketer or a standard Sales Ops Lead. We are looking for a GTM Engineer: a technical-minded builder who views the revenue funnel as a high-performance engine. Your goal is simple but ambitious: Maximize "at-bats" for our sales team. You will be the architect and operator of an AI-first demand generation machine, leveraging our own platform alongside a cutting-edge stack to ensure our inbound and outbound motions are personalized, scalable, and relentlessly optimized. The Role: What You’ll Do You will own the technical stack and execution of our Go-To-Market strategy. This is a "player-architect" role where you will: Architect the Outbound Engine: Use Clay for deep research and lead enrichment, Wiza and Sales Navigator for audience research and sourcing. Scale High-Volume Outreach: Deploy, test, and manage outbound email sequences via Instantly.ai, and Valley for signal-based LinkedIn outreach to ensure high deliverability and AI-driven personalization at scale. Own the System of Record: Maintain HubSpot as the si
