Wing, Alphabet’s autonomous drone delivery arm, has hired Minjae Ormes as head of marketing.
Ormes will lead Wing’s marketing team as the company turns drone delivery from a futuristic promise into a mainstream habit; something it’s been doing already through deals with retailers and restaurants, like Walmart, Lowes, and DoorDash.
The seasoned marketer was most recently vp of global brand and consumer marketing at LinkedIn, where she repositioned the platform for modern workers and scaled its premium offering. Before that, she spent over three years as the first CMO of Verizon-backed wireless brand Visible. In her earlier career, she spent seven years at YouTube.
