Build the Market. Shape What Comes Next.
PHENOGY is commercializing next-generation sodium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS) for grid, commercial, and
behind-the-meter applications in the U.S. market. As we scale our presence, partnerships are core to market entry, credibility,
and bankability. Sodium-ion technology will scale through ecosystems, not standalone products. This role exists to ensure our
technology is embedded in credible delivery, service, and supply networks that unlock rapid deployment, reduce risk, and create
long-term off-take and financial resiliency.
The Role
We are seeking a Strategic Partnerships Lead to build and scale long-term, value-creating relationships across the energy storage
ecosystem as we commercialize sodium-ion technology. This role will be responsible for structuring and managing strategic
collaborations with established, market-credible developers; ESCOs and system integrators; service and maintenance partners; and,
where strategically justified, enabling vertical integration with key suppliers.
The position sits at the intersection of commercial strategy, market access, and operational scale-up, with a mandate to convert
partnerships into repeatable deployment pathways, bankable projects, and durable competitive advantage. You will build scalable
strategic partnerships that accelerate market entry, enable efficient deployment, and support sustainable revenue growth. This
position serves to anchor the company within credible, bankable ecosystems that reduce customer and investor risk while securing
long-term access to critical capabilities, channels, and supply inputs. Additionally, it will ensure partnerships evolve with
company growth—from early pilots to large-scale deployments—and are continuously assessed for performance, alignment, and
strategic value.

YOUR MISSION Over the years, partnerships have been one of the most powerful and capital-efficient channels for our business. From a historical base of 192 interested leads generated through partner introductions and referrals — resulting in 19 past customers and 4 active customers, including a publicly traded company acquired through our Remote.com partnership — we know this motion works. As Partnerships Manager, You will own and scale this engine. This is a builder role: starting from a strong foundation of informal relationships and past wins, you will formalize and grow two distinct partnership pipelines — Commercial and Marketing — that together drive revenue, brand visibility, and long-term strategic positioning. Business Context & Partnership Model Our partnerships have historically operated across two value streams: Commercial Partnerships — Revenue & Lead Generation The commercial partnerships model is straightforward: we work with organisations whose clients or members are likely to need our services, and we structure introductions, referrals (paid and unpaid), and co-selling arrangements. Partners act as a trusted channel into qualified networks — shortening our sales cycle and increasing close rates because leads arrive with built-in credibility. The Remote.com partnership is a strong proof point: it brought us a publicly traded company as a customer. The next phase is about systematising what worked, identifying more partners in adjacent categories, and making the pipeline predictable. Target commercial partner categories include: * Business accelerators and startup programmes * Accounting and financial advisory firms that can refer their clients to us * Networks similar to YPO, StartX, YC * Venture capital and investor networks * Capital providers and debt financing firms * Due diligence and compliance consultancies * Companies specialising in remote talent and distributed workforce solutions * Providers of complementary services (HR tech, legal, payroll, etc.) Secondary Priority: Marketing Partnerships — Brand Credibility & Presence Marketing partnerships operate on a different logic: they increase our surface area in the market and make our brand, our people, and our clients visible to audiences we do not yet reach. These are not primarily revenue drivers in the short term — they are credibility and distribution plays that compound over time. Outcomes we are building toward include being featured as a brand across relevant media and communities, placing our people as recognised voices in our space, and amplifying client success stories to attract similar profiles. Target outcomes from marketing partnerships include: * Guest appearances on podcasts, panels, and webinars * Guest posts and bylines in industry publications * Interviews and editorial features * Backlinks from credible, high-authority websites * Being featured in industry events and conference programmes * Providing expert quotes to journalists and content creators * Securing referrals and testimonials from partners and clients * Indexing as a recognised brand across directories, lists, and ecosystem maps * Showcasing our activities, talent, and client outcomes in partner content Your Responsibilities Pipeline Development & Partner Management * Design and build two structured partnership pipelines: Commercial and Marketing, each with defined target profiles, outreach processes, and success metrics * Identify, research, and evaluate potential partners that align with our strategic vision and customer profile * Own the full partner lifecycle: from first contact and qualification through to activation, launch, and ongoing relationship management * Serve as the primary point of contact for all partners, representing our brand with consistency and credibility * Maintain a live pipeline view with clear stages, statuses, and expected outcomes Commercial Partnership Execution * Develop commercial partnership structures including referral agreements, co-selling arrangements, and revenue-sharing models (both paid and non-paid) * Build relationships with accelerators, VCs, accounting firms, capital providers, due diligence consultancies, and complementary service providers * Drive lead flow from partners: introductions, warm referrals, and joint outreach * Track partner-sourced revenue and contribution to overall pipeline with clear attribution Marketing Partnership Execution * Secure guest appearance slots on relevant podcasts, webinars, panels, and events * Place guest posts, bylines, and editorial features in key publications and media outlets * Build backlink and co-marketing relationships with high-authority websites in our space * Generate testimonials, referrals, and case study opportunities from client and partner networks * Ensure the company, our people, and our clients are represented and indexed across relevant ecosystem directories and featured lists Product Innovation & Market Intelligence * Stay informed about market trends, emerging technologies, and shifts in our competitive landscape to identify new partnership opportunities * Work closely with Product Management to surface partner needs, prioritise capabilities that increase partner and customer value, and help partners build deeper solutions on top of our platform * Act as a feedback loop between the market and internal teams — surfacing what partners are hearing from their clients and what opportunities we are not yet capturing YOUR PROFILE * Proven ability to build relationships and manage external stakeholders with professionalism and long-term thinking * Experience in partnerships, business development, or a client-facing growth role * Commercial mindset: comfortable discussing revenue, deal structures, and partner economics * Strong written and verbal communication skills — able to represent the company credibly to senior counterparts * Self-directed and organised: capable of managing multiple conversations and workstreams without close oversight * Familiarity with SaaS, HR tech, remote work, or B2B services is a strong plus * Existing network in relevant spaces (accelerators, VC, accounting, media) is a meaningful
REMOTE | FULL-TIME Born in the Basque Country and built for the world, ZenRows is one of the fastest-growing data infrastructure startups in Europe. We work 100% remotely and hire the best people regardless of where they are. Founded in 2021, we started as a scraping API for developers. In 2026, we are evolving into something bigger: the data collection infrastructure layer for the AI era. Thousands of companies across e-commerce, finance, real estate, and AI rely on ZenRows to power their data pipelines. Now, we're building for the next generation of users: workflow builders, AI engineers, and business teams who don't write code but need data to flow reliably through their systems. We're looking for a Head of Organic Growth to own how ZenRows is discovered, understood, and trusted across LLMs, developer communities, integration ecosystems, and the open web. THE ROLE The way developers and technical teams discover tools has fundamentally changed. Google search is no longer the only, or even the primary surface. Developers ask ChatGPT. Business users ask Gemini. AI engineers search Perplexity. Workflows are built inside Clay, n8n, and Make, where discovery happens through directories, templates, and community recommendations. Your job is to make ZenRows the trusted, cited, recommended answer across all of these surfaces, not just in Google's top 10. You'll work closely with Product, Sales, and the GTM Engineer to ensure content is a genuine growth engine, not a support function. WHAT YOU'LL OWN 🔍 AEO, GEO & DISCOVERABILITY STRATEGY This is the core of the role. * Own ZenRows' Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) strategy: ensuring we are the cited, recommended answer when developers and AI engineers ask about web scraping, data collection, workflow automation, and data pipelines * Understand how LLMs (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity) surface and prioritize content, and build a strategy around it * Develop structured, citation-friendly content formats: comparison pages, definitional guides, integration explainers, and technical FAQs that earn LLM citations * Own competitive intelligence: track how competitors are being cited, recommended, and positioned in AI search 📊 SEO STRATEGY & CONTENT OPERATIONS * Own ZenRows' organic search strategy end-to-end: keyword research, topic prioritization, content gap analysis, and competitive benchmarking, with a clear view of where SEO still drives meaningful pipeline and where it doesn't * Lead content operations: manage the editorial calendar, maintain publishing velocity, and ensure quality standards across in-house writers, freelancers, and external agencies * Manage, and develop a team of technical writers and editors, setting clear briefs, review processes, and feedback loops that raise the floor on content quality without creating bottlenecks * Own the relationship with external content agencies: briefing, quality control, performance review, and deciding what stays in-house versus what gets outsourced * Develop and maintain off-page SEO strategy: link acquisition, guest publishing, and building the kind of third-party authority signals that reinforce ZenRows' position in both traditional search and LLM training corpora * Work closely with Engineering on technical SEO: site architecture, crawlability, Core Web Vitals, structured data markup, and indexing health, you won't do this alone, but you'll own the roadmap and hold the team accountable * Maintain a content performance framework: define and track the metrics that matter (organic traffic, keyword rankings, assisted conversions, LLM citation frequency) and use them to make prioritization decisions, not just report on them * Continuously audit the existing content library for decay, cannibalization, and coverage gaps, and make the hard calls about what gets updated, consolidated, or cut 🧑💻 Developer Education & Docs-as-Marketing * Turn ZenRows' documentation into a top-of-funnel acquisition channel. Think Stripe's docs: content that ranks, educates, and converts, not marketing fluff disguised as technical writing * Build actionable, developer-focused resources: integration tutorials, use-case walkthroughs, SDK examples, and migration guides * Create content specifically for the AI/LLM data pipeline audience: tutorials on using ZenRows for RAG pipelines, AI agents, training data collection, MCP server integrations, and agentic workflows * Collaborate with Engineering and Product to ensure documentation is accurate and genuinely useful * Partner with DevRel to amplify technical content across developer communities 🔗 Ecosystem & Integration Content This is new territory for ZenRows, and one of the highest-leverage content surfaces in 2026. * Build and maintain a library of integration content: how ZenRows works inside Clay, n8n, Make, Zapier, LangChain, LlamaIndex, and other workflow and AI platforms * Create content that earns ZenRows a presence in integration marketplaces and community directories, not just Google * Partner with the Partnerships Manager on co-marketing content: joint guides, partner-specific tutorials, template libraries * Develop content that serves workflow builders and automation teams: non-developer technical users building workflows and automation without writing code 📈 PLG Content & Activation * Build a content-led activation flywheel: blog post attracts developer → documentation helps them succeed → integration guide shows them what's possible → usage converts to paid * Partner with Product and Growth on in-app content, onboarding flows, and activation-focused tutorials * Own the content layer of the trial-to-paid conversion journey 🤝 SALES ENABLEMENT & ENTERPRISE CONTENT * Support Sales with high-impact materials: competitive battle cards, use-case one-pagers, ROI narratives, and case studies * Develop positioning content for workflow builders and automation teams, as well as business users who interact with data through AI tools and LLM interfaces * Build and maintain a lean, current library of sales enablement assets, prioritize quality and relevance over volume 👥 TEAM LEADERSHIP * Lead, mentor, and develop the existing content team * Define and maintain editorial standards and brand voice across all content types * Build a culture of experimentation and outcome orientation, not content volume * Scale through leverage: AI-assisted workflows, freelance network, and smart prioritization THE PERSON We're looking for someone who thinks in distribution systems, not publishing calendars. REQUIRED * 5+ years in content, growth, or developer marketing, ideally at a B2B SaaS, API, or developer infrastructure company * Deep understanding of AEO and GEO: you know how LLMs source and surface answers, and you've thought about what it means for content strategy * Technical fluency in developer tools, APIs, or adjacent infrastructure. You don't need to be an engineer, but you need to be able to write or edit a Python snippet, understand what a headless browser does, and explain a web scraping use case to a non-technical audience * Proven experience building content for both self-serve/PLG and integration-led or enterprise motions * Strong editorial judgment, you can tell the difference between content that educates and content that fills a calendar * Experience building and maintaining integration or ecosystem content: tutorials, partner guides, marketplace presence * Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, autonomous environment without heavy process * Fluent in English (we are an English-first organization) STRONG ADVANTAGE * Experience with workflow automation platforms (Clay, n8n, Make, Zapier) from a content or product perspective * Familiarity with the LLM/AI agent ecosystem: LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, RAG architectures * Experience evolving or rebuilding a content function through a GTM pivot, not just building from scratch * Track record of content that drove ecosystem or community-led growth, not only organic search traffic * Experience using AI-assisted tools to automate content operations at scale (n8n, Claude Code, or similar) THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE * We are a small, efficient team of ~20 competing against companies 10x our size. Ownership is real, there is nowhere to hide * We are fully remote, which means documentation and async communication are essential * Feedback is constant and candid. Strong opinions are welcomed and debated * We are scaling fast. Processes evolve. Priorities shift. If you need rigid structure, you may struggle * We just made a significant strategic pivot. Some things that worked before won't work the same way. You'll need to be comfortable with that ambiguity WHY YOU'LL LOVE WORKING HERE * You will own the entire content function at a critical inflection point, the work you do in 2026 will shape the company's market position for years * Genuine autonomy. You will be trusted, not micromanaged * Direct access to leadership, our CEO is accessible and values world-class talent * 100% remote, forever * A horizontal culture where contributing beyond your job description is expected and celebrated * You'll be working at the intersection of developer tools, workflow automation, and the AI agent ecosystem, one of the most interesting spaces in tech right now WHAT REWARDS AND BENEFITS WOULD I GET? * 100% remote work: true location freedom * The salary you are worth: we focus on value, not previous compensation * The equipment you want: choose the tools you need * Generous Learning & Development budget: courses, materials, growth support * BitWarden Account for secure password management * Annual Kick-Off: yearly team event in a new location * Barcelona Meetups throughout the year * Deel Benefits: discounts on services, subscriptions, travel, and more * Access to world-class colleagues reinventing an industry OUR VALUES Ownership, Dedication, Impact, Transparency, and Agility run through everything we do. We're a sociable company and don't let a remote model stop us from feeling connected. The atmosphere is friendly, supportive, and driven by a constant desire to improve. DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION At ZenRows, we are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion and recognize we can always do more. Every job description is reviewed through a gender bias decoder to ensure inclusivity. We aim to nurture a welcoming and safe environment for everyone.
