Chief Marketing Officer, Kinetic Blocks (Bay Area)
Kinetic Blocks is a B2B marketplace for commercially licensed, provenance-tracked robot training data, covering egocentric human video, teleoperation recordings and robot execution data, where every dataset is quality-scored through our KBQS system before listing and delivered in LeRobot format with chain-of-custody documentation. The company was incorporated in Oslo in June 2026, opened in beta on 1 September with several data vendors under MoU, and is an NVIDIA Inception member.
We are hiring a CMO based in the Bay Area who will own the full customer list across buyers, sellers and partners, run onboarding so that new accounts reach their first listing or purchase on the platform, build and execute marketing towards robotics companies, frontier labs and data suppliers, and write and publish our newsletter. The role suits someone who has sold or marketed data, AI infrastructure or robotics products to technical buyers, who writes well enough to carry the newsletter personally, and who is comfortable working hands-on in a four-person team spread across Oslo, Boston and San Francisco.
The position is offered with salary and equity and will be filled as soon as our pre-seed round closes in October, so we want to start conversations now with candidates who can begin shortly after.
I am in San Francisco for Tech Week in the coming week and would like to meet candidates in person. Contact Lars-Fredrik Forberg, CEO and co-founder, at sales@kineticblocks.com or on LinkedIn.
