Community and Events Lead

About Light field

Light field is an AI-native CRM that assembles itself from your email, calendar, and meetings. It captures every interaction and turns it into organized context: accounts, tasks, follow-ups, and insights, so nothing slips through the cracks.

We’re rethinking CRM from first principles. Instead of forcing teams to maintain rigid systems, Light field learns from how companies actually work, adapting, automating, and surfacing the insight that drives growth. We’re building the CRM platform we always wished existed: fast, intelligent, and genuinely helpful.

The market agrees. Over 5,000 companies have used Light field since we launched in November, making us the fastest-adopted product in our category. We are backed by Greylock, Lightspeed, and Coatue, and our founders previously built Tome, a generative AI presentation product used by over 25 million people. Before Light field, our team worked on Llama, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Pinterest, Google, and Salesforce.

Our power users are genuinely obsessed — they rebuild their entire GTM motion around us and then tell everyone they know. Right now that energy is scattered across individual conversations. Our job is to give it a home.

We're hiring a Community and Events Lead to build the places where the Light field community happens — in real rooms and online. You'll run an intimate dinner program that puts our best prospects around a table with our founders and customers, own our presence at the industry events where our buyers show up, and build a virtual community where our power users teach each other things we couldn't teach them ourselves.

This is a role for someone who understands that the best pipeline doesn't come from a form fill. It comes from a room where the right fifteen people had a real conversation, and from a community people check because it's genuinely useful.

This role reports directly to our Head of GTM.

• Run a prospect dinner program. Design and execute intimate dinners that our target buyers rearrange their evening for. You'll own it end to end — the thesis for each dinner, the guest list, the venue, the seating, the conversation design, and the follow-up that turns a great night into real pipeline.

• Run events at our San Francisco HQ. Build a recurring rhythm of gatherings at our office that makes Light field a place people in the GTM world want to be.

• Turn community into content. Capture what's said at dinners, in sessions, and in the community, and turn it into material the rest of marketing can use — clips, posts, templates, and stories.

• Build and run the Light field power user community. Create a virtual community where the people getting the most out of Light field share what they've built. Recruit the founding members, seed the conversations, make the introductions, spotlight the best work, and grow it into something people check without being prompted.

• Build programs that turn power users into advocates. Design the structures — champion programs, template exchanges, office hours, user-led sessions — that give our best users a stage and give everyone else a reason to level up.

• Close the loop with GTM. Work tightly with sales on who to invite, what happened in the room, and what to do next. Every event and every community interaction should be visible in the pipeline, not just in a recap doc.

• Own our presence at industry events. Be the single point of accountability for trade shows and conferences: which ones we attend, what we do there, the booth, the side events, the speaking slots, the staffing plan, and the budget. You'll make our presence feel deliberate rather than obligatory, and you'll know what we got for the spend.

• You're a world-class event operator. You sweat the…
