You’ll also ensure our revenue teams are fully equipped with the tools, content, training, and confidence they need to differentiate LILT and close business.

• Strategic thinker with a proven ability to translate high-level business objectives into actionable go-to-market and product marketing strategies across commercial and federal segments.
• Self-starter with a strong sense of ownership and initiative—able to work independently in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment with minimal oversight.
• Entrepreneurial and adaptable, bringing a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset to evolving priorities and complex challenges.
• Detail-oriented and highly organized, capable of managing multiple workstreams, cross-functional stakeholders, and high-impact deliverables without sacrificing quality or speed.
• Analytical thinker with a data-driven approach — constantly asking "why" and solving problems with rigor and creativity.
• Collaborative team player who builds strong cross-functional relationships and thrives in high-growth, high-performance cultures.
• Demonstrated success leading sales enablement programs — including training, onboarding, asset creation, and feedback-driven refinement.
• Hands-on experience supporting federal go-to-market strategies, including messaging for public sector buyers, procurement cycles, and compliance positioning (e.g., FedRAMP).
• Skilled in analytics and optimization — tracking campaign performance, SEO rankings, product usage, and sales feedback to refine GTM strategy, enhance ROI reporting, and support continuous improvement.
• Adept at thought leadership and industry engagement — representing the brand in online communities, industry events, and digital channels to drive awareness, engagement, and social selling opportunities.
• Strong content development skills — including authoring solution briefs, product videos, case studies, whitepapers, web copy, and competitive assets.
• Experienced in event marketing support, including messaging, content, collateral creation, and sales readiness for conferences, field events, and executive briefings.
• Exceptional written and verbal communicator — capable of simplifying technical concepts and telling compelling product stories that resonate with both business and technical audiences.

Our Story

Our founders, Spence and John met at Google working on Google Translate. As researchers at Stanford and Berkeley, they both worked on language technology to make information accessible to everyone. They were amazed to learn that Google Translate wasn’t used for enterprise products and services inside the company and left to start a new company to address this need – LILT.

At its core, LILT has always been a machine learning company since its incorporation on March 6, 2015. At the time, machine translation didn’t meet the quality standard for enterprise translations, so LILT assembled a cutting-edge research team tasked with closing that gap. While meeting customer demand for translation services, LILT has prioritized investments in Large Language Models, believing that this foundation was imperative to the future of enterprise translation.
