About the job
About Adaptive:
Adaptive is an innovative cybersecurity startup dedicated to preventing AI-driven cyber threats. In December 2025, the company successfully raised $81 million in Series B funding, led by NVIDIA and Bain Capital Ventures, with contributions from Capital One Ventures, Citi Ventures, and ongoing support from Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), the OpenAI Startup Fund, and Abstract Ventures. This funding round marked NVIDIA’s inaugural investment in AI cybersecurity.
Founded by seasoned entrepreneurs Brian Long and Andrew Jones, Adaptive aims to establish a robust security framework for the AI era. Long and Jones previously co-founded Attentive, which achieved over $500 million in annual revenue and a valuation exceeding $10 billion, along with TapCommerce, acquired by Twitter. Their extensive experience in creating high-growth, product-centric businesses positions Adaptive strongly in the cybersecurity landscape.
Adaptive is trusted by leading financial institutions, tech companies, and healthcare organizations, safeguarding them from emerging threats like deepfakes, smishing, and AI-driven voice scams. With rapid enterprise adoption and a market potential exceeding $200 billion, Adaptive is poised for growth.

- Develop and promote partner-specific marketing collateral and resources.
- Work alongside cross-functional teams to align on event objectives, messaging, and audience strategy.
- Support pre-event promotions and post-event follow-up initiatives to maximize attendance and engagement.
