Job description
About Engine
Engine is the all-in-one travel and spend management platform trusted by 38K+ businesses and groups and 1.2M+ travelers. We're the retailer and the rails of business travel, the fastest-growing company in travel tech, built on a decade of proprietary technology, supply, and pricing no one else can replicate. Other travel and AI companies run on our infrastructure to book real trips, hold rates, and move payments, without building any of it themselves. We built it, AI-forward at every layer, from how travelers book to how the rails run.
That work has earned recognition as one of Fast Company's Best Workplaces for Innovators (2025), TravelTech's Reservation Platform of the Year (2026), and one of Built In's Best Places to Work (2020–2026).
We're looking for bold, ambitious people to help redefine how businesses manage and experience travel. Working here, you can expect exponential growth, an ambitious pace, full ownership, and high-caliber colleagues who push you to do the best work of your career. Every hire raises the bar.
Come outpace the ordinary and build the future of travel with us.
The Opportunity
Engine is a product-led company, which puts Product Delivery (comprising Product, Engineering and Design) at the heart of our business. The org is growing fast, shipping fast, and evolving fast, and the teams building the future of Engine need a communications partner who can match that pace.
This is a high-impact role partnering directly with the leaders of Product Delivery: our Interim CTO, our VP of Brand and Design, and our CEO in his capacity as Chief Product Officer (along with the other product leaders who report to him). You'll be the trusted comms advisor these leaders turn to for clarity, alignment, and change management across a large organization with a largely-remote population.
You won't just execute. You'll shape strategy, sharpen narratives, and help set the tone of one of Engine's most critical organizations. This is a rare seat: close to the technology, close to the leadership, close to the work that determines what Engine builds next.
Communication at Engine moves fast. Slack is our primary platform, layered with a weekly all-hands, quarterly in-person town halls, and an annual company summit. You'll have the tools, design support, and high-impact in-person moments to make it all land.
What You'll Do
- Embed with Product Delivery leadership. Serve as the go-to comms partner to Engine's Interim CTO, VP of Brand and Design, and product leaders, building deep understanding of their teams, priorities, and communication needs.
- Translate complexity into clarity. Turn technical and product strategy (roadmaps, architecture decisions, org changes, platform bets) into clear, compelling communications that resonate across Product Delivery and the broader company.
- Drive comms plans for the moments that matter. Own the comms strategy and execution for major Product Delivery moments: product launches, org changes, leadership transitions, roadmap updates, and cross-functional initiatives.
- Craft the narrative. Write and produce materials for Product Delivery all-hands, town halls, executive memos, quarterly reviews, and manager cascades.
- Operate cross-functionally. Partner with GTM, Marketing, People, and Finance to make sure product and technical work is well understood and well positioned internally.
- Coach leaders. Support product, engineering, and design leaders on their own communications, from written memos to live all-hands.
- Build with AI. Design and maintain repeatable projects, agents, and automations that capture templated approaches and learn individual leader tone of voice, so comms scales without losing signal and leaders can self-serve where it makes sense.
What You Bring
- 7+ years in internal communications, executive communications, or technical program communications, ideally in a fast-scaling tech, SaaS, or product-led company.
- A track record supporting senior technical and product leaders (CTO, CPO, VP Engineering, VP Product, VP Design), with the confidence and judgment to be their trusted advisor.
- Genuine technical fluency. You're comfortable with product language, engineering trade-offs, and systems concepts, and you can translate complexity into clarity without dumbing it down.
- Exceptional writing and editorial instincts. You can shift your voice, tighten a message, and make a leader sound like their best self.
- A strong operator's brain: you build plans, sequence messages, and run comms as a program, not one-off deliverables.
- Comfort with ambiguity, including partnering with leaders through periods of transition and change.
- Discretion, integrity, and the maturity to be trusted with sensitive information.
Applications for this role will be accepted through December 4th, 2026 or until the role is filled. We encourage you to apply early, as we may begin reviewing applications before the deadline.
