Product Marketing Director (Developer Tools) - $200k base plus bonus & equity

$150k–$200k base + equity

We’re hiring a Product Marketing Director to own positioning, messaging, and go-to-market for a fast-growing developer tools company. This is a hands-on individual contributor role, not a people-management or “slide-deck PMM” position. You’ll be responsible for defining how developers understand, evaluate, and adopt the product, and for building the product marketing playbook as the company scales.

You will:

Own positioning, messaging, and go-to-market

Translate technical product capabilities into clear developer value propositions

Lead product launches end-to-end

Create high-quality developer-focused content and copy

Partner closely with engineering, growth, and sales

Establish a repeatable product marketing playbook

What Success Looks Like
First 90 days

Establish consistent messaging across the company

Clarify positioning and narrative

Improve website messaging and case studies

Long-term

Developers trust the product immediately

Messaging clearly communicates technical value

Product marketing becomes a scalable function

Must-Have Experience

Min 5+ years in Product Marketing

At least 2 years in developer tools/developer infrastructure

Experience building positioning and messaging from scratch

Strong writing ability (blogs, landing pages, launch copy)

Technical fluency working with engineers

Experience owning a product launch end-to-end

Ideal Background
You may have worked at companies like Vercel, Supabase, Linear, Planetscale, Stripe, Datadog, LaunchDarkly, or similar developer-first companies.

Are comfortable as a hands-on IC

Understand bottom-up developer adoption and PLG

Have worked across multiple growth stages

Care deeply about brand, taste, and clarity of messaging

Not a Fit

Enterprise PMM without a developer audience experience

Demand-gen or content marketing roles labelled as PMM

Candidates who need large teams or agency support to execute
