Job Description
6-month contract position (with potential for permanent) About Blindside Networks Blindside Networks builds BigBlueButton, the world’s leading open-source virtual classroom, trusted by thousands of educational organizations globally, including the French Ministry of Education and the European Commission. We believe every student in the world should have access to a high-quality online learning experience. We believe every educator deserves the best platform to deliver it. That’s why we built BigBlueButton. We’ve also built a focused, high-trust team. We ship real things, operate with discipline, work with a global community, and care deeply about education. The Role We’re not a growth-at-all-costs shop, but we’re at a stage where deliberate growth is the mandate, so we’re searching for an experienced Marketing Manager to play a key role in driving that growth. Reporting to the CEO, in this role you'll own the top of the funnel and tackle a critical market positioning challenge: many educational organizations today believe that Teams and Zoom are all you need to deliver online classes (they are not, and if they were, the learning during Covid-19 would have turned out much better). You’ll be responsible for countering that belief, for changing the metrics from counting webcams and “Teams is free because we already have it” to measuring learning outcomes (you know, the real reason the organization is delivering the virtual class). If you want to run playbooks someone else designed, this isn’t the role. If you want to expand the market of an existing organization and see your fingerprints on the results, it is. This is a demand generation role at its core, but one that requires strong product instincts. You’ll need to understand how BigBlueButton delivers better learning outcomes, translate that into clear positioning, and use modern (including AI-enabled) tools to rapidly test and scale what works.
