## About this task

This Machine-learning platform for legal research (1,001–5,000 employees) is looking for an executive Fractional CMO for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Defines who the product is for, why it wins and how to say it.

It is a self-contained job: scope, checklist and price are agreed before you start. It builds AI products and needs human experts to check what the models produce.

The team sits in Los Angeles. Everything can be done remotely; an occasional visit is welcome and never required for the first month. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (PT).

## What you deliver

- Run two workshops and deliver a positioning statement, three messages and proof points.

- One round of edits after the company's review is included

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

## How the work runs

- Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files

- Days 2 to 8: the work, with questions answered the same day

- Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough

**Duration:** 2 to 3 weeks. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.

## Tools

Miro Notion

## Who fits

- 15+ years of hands-on work as a Fractional CMO, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Miro and Notion

- Comfortable explaining numbers or decisions to a non-specialist reader

## Not included

- Travel or work at a fixed location

- On-call availability outside the agreed window

- Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately

## How you get paid

- Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
