Manufacturing represents half of the world’s GDP, but 20 cents of every dollar spent is wasted on things like scrap, rework, product returns, mistakes, experiments, and underutilized human resources. Put simply: solving problems in manufacturing is too hard, too inefficient, and too analog.

Instrumental is a software company with the mission of eliminating half of that unnecessary waste by accelerating product maturity in manufacturing. We empower hardware companies to optimize their factories through artificial intelligence and unprecedented data access. Thanks to Instrumental, startups and Fortune 500 hardware companies alike are increasing yields, accelerating time-to-market, and reducing the frequency of recalls and production delays.

About the Role:

As Instrumental’s Demand Generation Marketing Manager, you will be responsible for driving marketing campaigns that target our key personas, including designing, executing, measuring, and optimizing multi-channel demand investments to drive quality pipeline.

Our business focuses on strategic customers that have tremendous expansion potential. This means that our marketing programs target both our existing customer base and new logo pipeline for our go-to-market organization. These two areas of focus are driven by multi-touch programs that include BDR/SDR outreach, webinars, emails, digital ads, and more.

This is an opportunity to work directly with senior members of leadership to propel our marketing function forward. We are looking for someone who is a master communicator, excited to drive a breadth of marketing initiatives, and is ready to lead our team of driven BDRs to peak performance. You will work closely with these team members by training them in strategic marketing messaging and content to support pipeline growth efforts, as well as through coaching and mentoring.

Own pipeline generation, primarily through BDR activity
Enable BDR success through continuous training, content development and marketing campaigns to support inbound and outbound engagement
