Full job description

Atom.com is looking for an Ecosystem Development Associate to help build and grow our partner network from the ground up. This is a hands-on role for someone early in their partnerships career who is energized by outreach, relationship-building, and making things happen.

You’re plugged into the AI startup world — you follow what’s being built, who’s building it, and where those conversations are happening. You’re ready to turn that awareness into real partnerships.

What You’ll Do

  • Support outreach and relationship development with AI startups, developer tools, accelerators, and founder communities
  • Help build and manage a pipeline of partnership opportunities from first contact through activation
  • Coordinate co-marketing, referral, and integration opportunities with partner teams
  • Assist in developing partner-facing materials, onboarding flows, and program documentation
  • Track partnership activity and outcomes in CRM and report on progress
  • Participate in founder communities and ecosystem spaces where Atom’s partners live

What We’re Looking For

  • 1 to 3 years of experience in partnerships, business development, account management, or a related role
  • Genuine familiarity with the AI startup ecosystem — you know the players and follow the space
  • Strong communicator who builds rapport quickly and follows through consistently
  • Organized and self-motivated; you manage your own pipeline without being nudged
  • Excited to be part of building something from an early stage
  • Startup or marketplace experience is a plus
