What do Marketing in San Francisco work on?

The roles on this page divide broadly into two clusters. The first is product and field marketing: positions such as the Director, Product Marketing, AI at Databricks and the Principal Product Marketing Manager, AI Governance centre on go-to-market strategy, sales enablement, customer narratives, and product launches. The Head of Field Marketing and Events at Scale AI is more execution-focused, running executive dinners, sponsored conferences, and an annual summit with up to 50% travel. The second cluster is technical growth work: the Applied AI Software Engineer at OpenAI builds production systems connecting AI agent traces to business outcomes, while the Data Scientist, SMB Ads Growth architects attribution frameworks and deploys machine learning models for an ads platform. The Product Marketing Manager at Baseten sits between both clusters, creating technical content for developer and enterprise audiences. Across the sample, AI and LLM product knowledge appears frequently alongside more conventional marketing deliverables.

Skills and experience employers ask for

The skills counts reflect mentions in descriptions across all postings on this page, not stated requirements, so they indicate what topics appear in job descriptions rather than what every employer will test. A/B testing and AI agents are the most commonly mentioned capabilities. Technical skills such as Python, SQL, TypeScript, and React appear in a notable share of postings, reflecting how many of these roles sit at the intersection of marketing and engineering. The sample covers 57 postings, which is small enough that a single employer's cluster of technical roles can skew all counts.

A/B testing 47%
LLMs 33%
Agents 33%
Python 28%
APIs 28%
SQL 22%
TypeScript 20%
React 17%

Marketing roles that state a salary

The employers' own advertised ranges, for individual roles at different levels โ€” not an average and not a market rate.

San Francisco office, hybrid or remote?

Most postings on this page ask for onsite attendance; hybrid arrangements account for a meaningful share, and only a small minority are listed as fully remote. No postings have an unknown work mode, so the split is fully stated. Even so, the specific days or conditions of hybrid arrangements are generally not spelled out in the fact pack, so candidates should check individual listings. Remote-eligible roles are scarce here, and nothing in the postings indicates whether remote candidates outside the Bay Area would be considered.

Make your application specific to the work

  1. Read each posting carefully The roles vary significantly in scope, from hands-on Python and SQL work to team leadership and event management, so confirm the actual day-to-day before applying.
  2. Check stated experience thresholds Several sample summaries name explicit year requirements โ€” eight to twelve years for senior product marketing and twelve-plus for field marketing leadership โ€” so match your background before investing time in an application.
  3. Note the work-mode expectation Most postings require onsite presence; if you need hybrid or remote, filter to the minority of postings that offer it and verify the exact arrangement with the employer directly.
  4. Check visa and degree eligibility separately Sponsorship availability and degree requirements are not stated in the fact pack for most employers, so contact each company or review the full job description to confirm those details before applying.

Questions about Marketing jobs in San Francisco

The employers with the most postings on this page are OpenAI, Chime Financial, LlamaIndex, Perplexity, Lyft, Waymo, Databricks, and Baseten. In total there are 35 distinct employers listed across the postings.

Only a minority of postings advertise pay. Among those that do, ranges vary widely depending on role type. OpenAI's Integrated Marketing Manager role shows a range of roughly $287,000 to $318,000, while more technical growth engineering and data science roles at OpenAI and Perplexity show ranges reaching $405,000 to $515,000. These are individual advertised ranges from specific postings, not a city-wide benchmark.

It depends on the role. A substantial share of postings mention A/B testing, AI agents, Python, and SQL, and some roles โ€” such as the Applied AI Software Engineer positions โ€” are explicitly engineering roles within a marketing or growth context. Traditional product marketing roles such as those at Databricks focus more on strategy and content, though familiarity with AI and ML products is frequently mentioned.

Only a small number of postings on this page are listed as fully remote. The majority require onsite attendance, with a portion offering hybrid arrangements. If remote work is important to you, you will need to filter carefully and confirm terms with the employer.

There is a pronounced skew toward senior and leadership levels. A large share of postings are at lead or director level, with a smaller number at manager or mid level. A portion of postings do not state a seniority level. Entry-level marketing roles are not prominently represented on this page.
