What Hightouch asks for

Captured from Built In Chicago on July 24, 2026.

Responsibilities:

Partner directly with enterprise marketing teams to onboard them onto the Agentic Marketing Platform Ads, ensuring they see immediate value through high-quality creative output.

Utilize advanced prompt engineering across leading generative AI models to create polished, on-brand, and performant ad creatives (imagery, video, and copy).

Requirements:

A portfolio that does the talking: Real ads, real product launches, real campaigns. Ideally with AI integrated into the workflow, but the bar is craft.

Deep AI fluency: You don't need us to teach you what's new. You're already testing the latest image and video models.

Enterprise client instincts: You've worked directly with sophisticated marketing teams, in-house, agency, or consultancy.

Hightouch scopes the role as onboarding enterprise marketing teams onto its product quickly. Delivery for one customer at a time makes the role read like consulting.
