TL;DR — We're looking for a strategic, hands-on external communications lead to drive Lovable's US media relations, executive visibility, and events presence. You'll shape how Lovable shows up in our largest market — from earned media to spokesperson moments to high-impact events — while helping establish our voice as a global leader in democratizing software creation. This is a high-growth, high-impact role based in San Francisco.

Why Lovable?

Lovable lets anyone and everyone build software with any language. From solopreneurs to Fortune 100 teams, millions of people use Lovable to transform raw ideas into real products — fast. We are at the forefront of a foundational shift in software creation, which means you have an unprecedented opportunity to change the way the digital world works. Over 2 million people worldwide already use Lovable to launch businesses, automate work, and bring their ideas to life. And we're just getting started.

We're a small, talent-dense team building a generation-defining company from Stockholm. We value extreme ownership, high velocity and low-ego collaboration. We seek out people who care deeply, ship fast, and are eager to make a dent in the world.

What we're looking for

• External comms experience in hypergrowth tech : 5+ years building and executing external communications at fast-growing technology companies (B2B or B2C SaaS preferred), ideally with experience building new programs while staying hands-on

• US media relations expertise : Strong relationships with US tech, business, and trade media, with a track record of securing coverage that moves the needle; ; experience with issues management a plus

• Events and executive visibility chops : Experience managing the full lifecycle of executive speaking opportunities — identifying and pitching events, developing abstracts, preparing spokespeople, and executing on-site

• Executive partnership and preparation : Track record of advising and coaching spokespeople for media interviews, speaking engagements, and high-profile public moments

• Employer brand instincts : Understanding of how external communications drives talent attraction; bonus points for experience developing narratives that resonate with technical audiences

• Extreme ownership with keen attention to detail : You take full accountability, sweat the small stuff, and catch what others miss

• Comfort with ambiguity and speed : You're energized (not drained) by fast-moving environments where priorities shift and you're building the plane while flying it

What you'll do

• Own US media relations : Develop and execute Lovable's US media strategy — journalist relationships, proactive pitching, and reactive opportunities

• Drive executive visibility and events : Identify and execute strategic speaking opportunities that build Lovable's credibility with US audiences, managing everything from event selection to on-site presence

• Develop and support executive spokespeople : Prepare executives for US media opportunities and speaking engagements, including message development, media training, and briefings

• Support employer brand : Contribute to external communications that reinforce Lovable as a destination for world-class talent, supporting broader employer brand initiatives

• Shape our communications foundations : As an early member of the comms team, help establish the frameworks, processes, and ways of working that will scale with Lovable's growth
