ABOUT US
At Sierra, we’re creating a platform to help businesses build better, more human customer experiences with AI. We are primarily an in-person company based in San Francisco, with growing offices in Atlanta, New York, London, Paris, Madrid, Munich, Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney.

Before founding Sierra, Clay spent 18 years at Google, where he most recently led Google Labs. Earlier, he started and led Google’s AR/VR effort, Project Starline, and Google Lens. Before that, Clay led the product and design teams for Google Workspace.
ABOUT THE ROLE
We’re looking for a Producer on the Events & Experiences team to help bring Sierra’s most important moments to life — not just what happens on stage, but the entire arc of how an attendee experiences Sierra. You’ll join a small team with a high bar for craft, producing everything from large conferences and product launches to executive gatherings, field events, and experiential activations.
This role lives at the intersection of live production and creative vision. You’ll shape how our events look, sound, and feel; partner with creative teams and production vendors to deliver them flawlessly; and think well beyond the main stage to the texture of the whole experience. We care deeply about Craftsmanship, getting the details right, from the words on a slide to the way people move through a room and you’ll be the person who holds that bar.
What You'll Do:
- Own production end to end. Lead the full lifecycle of Sierra's marquee moments and third party events from creative concept and pre-production through post-event delivery — across keynotes, product launches, executive summits, field events, and experiential activations.
- Craft the experience, not just the agenda. Think beyond the main stage to how attendees move through and feel a space: breakout sessions, demo environments, branded moments, and the texture of the overall experience.
- Lead vendors and partners. Source, brief, and manage AV, scenic, lighting, video, and experiential vendors and creative agencies — getting the best work out of partners while owning timelines and budgets.
- Partner cross-functionally. Work closely with Marketing, Product, Communications, Sales, and executive stakeholders to translate strategic objectives into compelling live moments.
- Capture and extend the work. Help define w
