About us
We're building the creative layer for modern communication. Every month, over a billion people make presentations — but the tools they use to make them haven't evolved in decades. We're changing that, using AI to disrupt a massive market.
📈 Millions of people rely on Gamma to create, teach, and persuade, creating more than 1 million gammas every day.
💻 We see Gamma as the next great workplace tool, combining viral B2C love with a massive B2B opportunity. We believe AI can be a true creative partner: one that understands context, clarity, and taste.
💸 We’ve reached a $2.1B valuation, crossed $100M in annual recurring revenue, and have been profitable since 2023.
💙 We're an imaginative, passionate team who takes our work seriously, but not ourselves. Our culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity.
About the role
You'll partner directly with B2B customers to help them unlock the full potential of Gamma, translating their brand identities and templates into beautiful, functional content. This means leading hands-on product education sessions, creating "aha" moments that demonstrate how Gamma can elevate their work, and becoming the bridge between customer needs and product development. You'll help customers master storytelling, design, and AI while gathering insights that shape our roadmap.
This role combines design expertise, customer education, and product advocacy. You'll work closely with Customer Success to deliver transformative experiences for B2B customers, partner with the Product team as an internal "power user" representing B2B needs, and develop repeatable playbooks and resources that reduce friction for the GTM team and future customers. You'll turn customer feedback into actionable insights while building the templates and frameworks that help teams succeed.
Our team has a strong in-office culture and works in person 4–5 days per week in San Francisco. We love working together to stay creative and connected, with flexibility to work from home when focus matters most.

What you'll bring
  • 3+ years of professional experience with portfolio showing strong visual design and storytelling skills
  • Experience in customer-facing roles with ability to communicate across a broad range of technical and design skill levels
  • Passion for helping customers get the most out of Gamma
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills

GTM at Gamma
We believe Gamma's storytelling platform will make people happier at work.
Let's be real: no one likes building decks. And yet, they're a necessary part of work life. We're on a mission to free orgs from the drudgery of deck building, while dialing up the magic of storytelling and turning dread into delight.
We care deeply about our customers' success.
If we don't think they'll get real ROI from Gamma, we won't sell it to them. Customer success drives all of what we do — from our first interaction with them, to their umpteenth renewal. We aim to help our customers win the next pitch, land the compelling case, drive employee satisfaction, and let storytelling reign.
Our tiny team has massive impact and reach:
1 million
AI generated presentations daily
6 million
AI images generated daily
1 trillion
LLM tokens processed per month
… all driven by customer value.
Life at Gamma
🤝 You’ll fit right in if…
  • You get energy from small teams doing big things.
  • You love when design, code, and storytelling overlap.
  • You default to action, even when the answer isn’t clear yet.
  • You value details, but know when to ship and move on.
  • You bring both the spreadsheets and the sparkle, equal parts workhorse and unicorn.
  • You believe AI should amplify creativity, not replace it.
  • You know kindness and intensity are not opposites.
  • You like working with people who care deeply: about their craft, their teammates, and the users on the other side of the screen.
💙 Who we are
Gamma is full of imaginative, passionate people who take their work seriously but not themselves. The culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity. It’s the kind of place where you’ll debate a pixel on Monday, laugh over someone’s keyboard setup on Tuesday, and ship something remarkable by Friday.
We care about craft, move with intention, and don’t mind getting a little scrappy. It’s fast, creative, and occasionally chaotic — but that’s what makes it interesting.
💬 Here’s a bit about what it’s like to work here, from people on the inside:
We asked the team what makes Gamma, Gamma. Here were some of their answers:
  • "quirky, inspiring, fun, a little wild in the best way"
  • "You can have an idea and just run with it."
  • "Everyone’s talented and humble — the mix keeps you sharp."
  • "We ship cool stuff, learn a ton, and laugh a lot doing it."
