The Opportunity Principal Product Marketing Manager We are hiring a Principal Product Marketing Manager to operate as a strategic force multiplier across the organization.

This is not a task‑oriented Senior PMM role. This is a highly autonomous, executive‑facing individual contributor role for a seasoned product marketer who:

Thinks at the portfolio and platform level

Drives bottom‑line impact

Influences decisions without formal authority

Owns the room with executives, customers, and partners

Proactively shapes the product marketing agenda and advocates cross‑functionally with other teams

You will act as a right hand to the VP of Product Marketing and partner closely with Product Management, Sales Leadership, Corporate Marketing, Customer Success, and Executive stakeholders.

You will help shape and launch strategic initiatives including AI‑driven platform capabilities (e.g. MCP‑style architectures, agentic AI, etc), while driving the downstream execution that turns vision into pipeline and revenue.

This role offers high visibility to the C‑suite and clear growth paths—whether along a senior IC track or into future people leadership.
