Field & Events Marketing Manager

Job description

About Supabase Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We give teams a complete backend out of the box: Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search, all built on Postgres and designed to grow with the products people build on us. We're open source, remote-first, and async by default. We move fast, we ship in public, and we care a lot about doing right by the developers who trust us. About the role Our events program is how a lot of developers and teams meet Supabase for the first time, whether that's a packed booth at a major trade show, an event with one of our partners, or a dinner with a room full of target accounts. We're looking for a Field Marketing & Events Manager to own and grow that program. The role centers on two areas: Partner events and trade shows. The events that put Supabase in front of the wider market and our partner network. You'll own these end to end, with the goal of building awareness with the audiences that matter to us, getting our team face-to-face with customers, prospects, and partners, and turning that into leads, signups, and real opportunities. They're also where we strengthen the partnerships we have, build new ones, and establish Supabase as a credible voice in the industry. Strategic business events. High-touch events you'll run with Sales, like executive dinners and small-format gatherings built around specific accounts. These sit further down the funnel: the point is to get in the room with target accounts, influence and accelerate pipeline, and open up the expansion opportunities and strategic relationships that help close and grow deals. One thing to know going in: this is a newly formed team, and we're still figuring out how it all works. You'll help define the playbook, not inherit one. That means real influence over how we run events, and it means staying flexible as priorities shift and we learn what works. You'll work with a small, senior marketing team, so your ideas land quickly and your work is visible. What you'll do - Own partner events and trade shows end to end, from planning through on-site execution and follow-up. - Work with Sales to design and run strategic business events: executive dinners, roundtables, and small high-touch gatherings aimed at target accounts, pipeline, and expansion. - Help decide where we show up. Evaluate event opportunities and make the case for where our time and budget go. - Run sponsorships from contract to follow-up: packages, deliverables, internal coordination, the works. - Manage the operational backbone of each event: budgets, vendors, timelines, run-of-show docs, staffing plans, and on-site execution. - Coordinate the physical side: booth assets, shipping, print, signage, swag, demos, registration, and overall experience. - Partner closely with PMM, Partnerships, Design, Ops, Finance, and Legal to align on goals and ship great events together. - Drive promotion and attendee comms: registration, reminders, internal briefs, and readiness docs. - Make sure leads get captured and followed up on, working with Ops and GTM. - Track how events perform against their goals and turn the results into reporting, learnings, and program improvements. - Build the repeatable playbooks, templates, and processes that let the program scale without getting heavier. - Support our community events program where it helps. Who you are - Passionate about building memorable, high-quality event experiences - Highly organized and detail-oriented, and strong at managing timelines and multiple priorities - Execution-focused, but always thinking about impact - Analytical and data-driven; you use metrics to make decisions and improve outcomes - Calm under pressure, adaptable on-site, and quick to solve problems - Comfortable working independently and owning projects end to end - A clear communicator who builds strong relationships across teams - Scrappy and resourceful; you make things happen with limited resources - Excited to learn, improve processes, and grow as the program scales What we're looking for - 5-8+ years in field marketing or a closely related role. - Direct experience running trade shows and sponsored conferences: booth strategy, on-site execution, and everything that goes into a great presence. - Experience with partner events and co-marketing: planning and running events with partners, and managing the relationships and deliverables that come with them. - Experience building strategic business events in close partnership with Sales, things like executive dinners, roundtables, and targeted regional events tied to pipeline. - Comfort owning budgets, vendors, contracts, and on-site logistics. - Strong written communication. On a remote, async team, most coordination happens in writing. - Willingness to travel up to 50%. Nice to have - Experience marketing to a technical or developer audience: B2B SaaS, developer tools, infrastructure, or open source. - A history of working hand in glove with enterprise Sales teams on field programs. - You've worked in a fast-moving, lean, remote, async environment before and liked it. How we work We're remote-first and async, so most coordination happens in writing. You'll have a lot of autonomy and a team that trusts you to run with things. In exchange, we expect clear communication, good judgment, and ownership. WHAT WE OFFER - Fully Remote We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world. - ESOP Every team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together. - Tech Allowance Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment—laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work. - Health Benefits Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us. - Annual Off-Sites Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year. - Flexible Work We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when. - Professional Development Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning—courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth. ABOUT THE TEAM Supabase was born-remote and open-source-first. We believe our globally distributed team is our secret weapon in building tools developers love. - ~400 team members - 60+ countries - 20+ languages spoken - Over $1B raised (including our $500M Series F) - 540,000+ community members We move fast, build in public, and use what we ship. If it’s in your project, we probably use it in ours too. We believe deeply in the open-source ecosystem and strive to support—not replace—existing tools and communities.
