Lovable is building the world's most loved AI software development platform, empowering builders to ship real products faster than ever before. We've grown to 150K+ community members in our first year, with passionate builders across 80+ countries creating everything from side projects to production applications. Our community is our competitive advantage—they validate us, amplify us, and help us build the best product in the market.
The Role
As Head of Community Marketing, you'll own the strategy and execution of all community-led growth initiatives at Lovable.
