About NewsBreak
Local life runs on local information. What happened down the street? Who can fix this? Where should we go tonight? NewsBreak started in 2015 to answer these questions, and today more than 40 million people a month rely on us to follow what’s going on in their zip code.
Three platforms with one vision: powering local life. Led by founder and CEO Jeff Zheng, NewsBreak is our local life and news platform; Nearby AI connects people with local businesses; and NDot AI helps publishers and creators grow and earn.
Building for the long term. A $115 million Series C made us a unicorn in 2021, and we keep investing in our people. We’re Great Place to Work® certified and named to Fast Company’s Best Workplaces for Innovators (2025) and Fortune’s Best Workplaces in the Bay Area™ (2026).
Everyone makes an impact. Whether you write code, shape products, tell our story, or run the business, we want people who own projects end to end, stay curious, and speak up. Join us.

The Role
This is a hands-on, 0→1 marketing role spanning brand strategy, product marketing, B2B marketing and consumer marketing. You'll own brand strategy and positioning across NewsBreak, NDot AI and Nearby AI, with a primary focus on B2B marketing for NDot AI and Nearby AI, and responsibility for B2C brand and consumer marketing for NewsBreak and Nearby AI. You'll translate that strategy into websites, product positioning, GTM materials, campaigns, content and thought leadership that drive awareness, customer acquisition and user growth.
You should be equally comfortable defining company and product positioning, developing B2B and B2C campaigns, writing compelling messaging and content, and personally driving key launches and marketing assets — while partnering closely with Product, GTM, PR/Comms and business leaders. This role is not primarily focused on performance marketing or paid user acquisition.
Location: Mountain View, CA

NewsBreak runs a free app and website that gather local and national news for readers across the United States and sort it by ZIP code and by each reader's interests. In 2022, it launched a national network of independent local writers to cover communities that get little attention from traditional media. Its software pulls articles from local outlets, national publishers, and its own contributors into a single feed, and the app sends nearby alerts about crime, weather, and traffic. NewsBreak makes money by selling ads, including to local businesses, and shares ad revenue with partner publishers. It was founded in 2015 and is based in Mountain View, California.
