PR & Marketing Lead
The Opportunity
EQL Tech is partnering with a stealth, early-stage physical AI health startup (Palo Alto, team of roughly four) to bring on a Contract PR & Marketing Lead for a 1-3 month engagement. The company turns real-world sensor data, including wearables, ECG, and video, into clinical-grade health insight. Its founders have shipped FDA-cleared AI together before, paying enterprise customers are already live across two verticals, a major commercial partnership is in advanced discussions, and a seed round is set to close in Q3/Q4 2026.
The technology is well ahead of the story. The website undersells it, the founders aren't yet visible online, and there is nothing press-ready for the announcements about to land. Closing that gap is the job.

- Narrative: Reposition the website messaging so it says what the company does and why it matters.
- Founder visibility: Build the founders' LinkedIn presence into a credible, consistent channel.
- Presence: Establish the social cadence and voice for the company.
- Launch readiness: Prepare press and partner-facing materials so they're ready to go the moment the seed round and partner
