Content Marketing Associate

About Edacious

Edacious is a fast-moving, science-forward technology company on a mission to change how we understand and value food. We believe nutrient density is the missing link between our agriculture system and human health—and we’re here to define it and make it matter.

Our tools combine lab science, software, and storytelling to help brands, farmers, researchers, and food system leaders evaluate and communicate the quality of their food. We’re building a nutrition intelligence platform to transform food labeling, procurement, and policy. If we’re successful, better food becomes more valuable and more available—at scale.

We’re a small, values-driven team with top-tier investors, big ambitions, and an unusual interdisciplinary approach. You’ll be surrounded by scientists, systems thinkers, designers, and operators working shoulder-to-shoulder to build something bold and necessary.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a strategic, scrappy, and mission-aligned Content Marketing Associate to translate the science and soul of Edacious into positioning, messaging, and content that drives results. This is not just about writing—it’s about shaping how the world sees and understands our work.

You’ll craft narrative arcs and content systems that move between dashboards, data, product features, and purpose, and you’ll do it in a way that resonates with diverse audiences: from food brands and farmers to policymakers and scientists. You'll collaborate across product, science, commercial, and leadership teams, and you’ll get pulled into a lot of conversations early.

This role is ideal for someone who has 4–6+ years of experience in marketing, content, or communications, and is hungry for more strategic ownership + content generation, cross-functional influence, and growth. If you’ve been the go-to storyteller or bridge between technical and commercial teams at a fast-moving startup, and you’re ready to lead, we want to hear from you.

What you'll own

Positioning & Messaging

•Develop and evolve our core narrative, ensuring everything we say—from sales decks to landing pages—stems from a clear, coherent, and compelling brand story.

•Translate scientific insights, product features, and customer outcomes into language that resonates with real-world stakeholders.

•Help us articulate not just what we do, but why it matters, and how it links to sales, product, and customer impact.

Content Strategy & Execution

•Own and execute our content calendar, prioritizing pieces that drive clear business KPIs (think lead generation, conversion, and partner activation, not just page views).

•Write and produce case studies, white papers, blog posts, and campaign assets that help us get known for what we do best.

•Support our website and visual storytelling efforts, ensuring the right messages are reaching the right audiences at the right time.

Sales & Growth Enablement

•Create targeted collateral and messaging to support the commercial team (product explainers, one-pagers, decks, partner toolkits, etc.)

•Partner with sales and product to design content that answers customer questions before they ask them.

Experimentation & Learning

•Establish a test-and-learn culture around content performance. Set KPIs. A/B test. Iterate based on what works.

•Identify scalable ways to use content across the funnel and across formats—visuals, short-form, long-form, video, etc.

• We’re known for a clear, differentiated story about food quality.
• Our messaging clicks with customers, partners, and investors—because it’s built to match their world, not just ours.
• The content engine is humming—moving quickly, tied to strategy, and owned by someone who sees the full picture.
• You grow with us. You take this role and make it your own, on a path toward becoming a senior marketing leader.

• You’ve owned brand messaging or product positioning at a startup or fast-moving team, and loved being at the center of it all.
• You’ve translated technical or scientific concepts into narratives that inspire, inform, and drive decisions.
• You think like a marketer and a business partner: you’re always asking “what’s the KPI?” and “what decision does this content support?”
• You thrive in ambiguity, wear multiple hats without blinking, and prefer action over approval chains.
• You’re a builder. You’ve made things from scratch. You’re comfortable with trial, error, and iteration.
• You believe in our mission—and want your work to matter beyond the next campaign cycle.

• You have a passion for / experience in food, agriculture, nutrition, or science-focused sectors — especially if you’ve helped tell complex stories in ways that resonate across stakeholders (farmers, scientists, consumers, investors).
• You have a portfolio you can share with us and success stories to back it up. Show us your previous work. Bring us something that works and that you’re proud of.
• You bring prior startup experience — show us how you helped build a brand and / or made a tangible impact on early growth, positioning, or product-market fit.

• Salary: $90,000-140,000, depending on qualifications, experience and equity.
• Equity: 0.02%–0.05%, depending on qualifications, experience and salary.
• Flexible vacation policy and paid holidays.
• Health, dental, vision insurance.
• 401K w/ 4% company match.

Where and how you’d work

You can choose where you work—this role is remote-first, but you must be based in the U.S.

Our HQ, chemistry lab, and hardware space is in Marlborough, MA (about 30 minutes west of Boston) and you’re welcome to grab a desk there. The science team is onsite daily, while the product team is remote. You’ll be expected to travel to company events (usually in New England) once or twice a year.

We’re committed to building a remote-first design team that gets together when we need to. We’re built on Slack, Figma, GitHub, andGoogle workspace.
