Moonwalkers are a product people need to experience to believe. Millions have seen the viral videos, but we haven't built the in-person infrastructure to convert that attention into revenue at scale. That's the gap this role fills.
You'll own the full spectrum of brand experience and field marketing — live demos, pop-up activations, trade shows, retail partnerships, and community events.
