About the role
Replit is the agentic software creation platform that enables anyone to build applications using natural language. With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation. We are looking for a Director or VP of Communications to help lead Replit’s next chapter of storytelling, reputation building, and market awareness. This is a senior communications role for a creative, strategic, and hands-on leader who can help build and scale the communications function as Replit grows from a beloved developer platform into a defining company in AI, software creation, and enterprise transformation. This person will help own Replit’s external and internal communications strategy, including company narrative, media relations, analyst relations, executive communications, internal communications, crisis communications, customer storytelling, policy-related communications, and global awareness. The role requires someone who can push through the noise and make the Replit story heard and for it to be a part of the narrative at all times. The Director / VP of Communications will help develop a compelling narrative that evolves with the company, the product, and the market, and deliver that narrative to the audiences across media, policymakers, partners, customers, potential ones and employees. The role will also support Replit’s international awareness, with a focus on key markets in Europe and Asia. This person must be both strategic and execution-oriented. They should have been able to build a comms function at a fast-growing technology company or have been the second in command at one. But, this is not to be seen as a traditional press office role of taking a playbook from one company and adopting it in its entirety at Replit. The person must be able to be creative, scrappy, maybe even spiky, to take what they know to work as a foundation and then build on it to make Replit a unique player that can punch above its weight in a very crowded and competitive marketplace.
