Hightouch is the modern AI platform for marketing and growth teams. Our AI agents reimagine marketing workflows, allowing marketers to create content, plan campaigns, and execute strategies with transformational velocity and performance.

We are a rare company built at the intersection of two fundamental technological shifts:

• Advances in LLMs and agentic AI.
• The creation and rapid adoption of cloud data warehouses like Snowflake and Databricks.

Building on these tailwinds, we’ve become a leader in AI marketing, partnering with industry leaders like Domino’s, Chime, Spotify, Ramp, Whoop, Grammarly, and over 1,000 others. We have been named a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Customer Data Platforms.

Our team focuses on making a meaningful impact for our customers. We approach challenges with first-principles thinking, move quickly and efficiently, and treat each other with compassion and kindness. We look for team members who are strong communicators, have a growth mindset, and are motivated and persistent in achieving our goals.
