Own competitive intelligence, translating market insights into actionable strategies that inform product roadmap priorities.
  • Thought Leadership & Content : Drive the creation and delivery of foundational marketing content (website copy, analyst briefings, blogs, case studies, and presentations) that drives consideration and defines the category leadership narrative.
  • Cross-Functional Alignment : Act as the strategic link between Product Management, Sales Leadership, and Demand Generation to ensure alignment on roadmap priorities, sales goals, and campaign execution.
  • Demand Generation Support : Partner closely with the Demand Gen team to provide the core product and solution messaging required for campaigns, events, and vertical outreach.

Required Experience And Qualifications
