You will define customer personas, prioritize their biggest challenges, define segments, understand purchasing behaviors, and research competing offerings. The team will look to you as the voice of the customer.
  • Lead product launches. Our product team moves fast, so we constantly have exciting new features to share with our customers. You will write blog posts, help articles, create launch materials for our sales team, write email newsletters, and communicate with our rapidly growing Slack community to support these launches. You also know that a product launch is just the beginning and will support the continued adoption of features as our team improves them.
  • Craft and execute elite product marketing campaigns that resonate with customers and target audiences across all channels, including website, social media, email, and paid advertising.
  • Drive cross-functional strategic projects. You will lead and drive cross-functional strategic projects. You'll influence and bring together the team, collaborating with others to translate strategic opportunities into deliverable projects. You will measure and report on the business impact of such projects.
  • Partner with our product team. Be a close partner with our design and engineering teams. You'll contribute to our product strategy, how we prioritize features, and be a constant advocate for our customers.
  • Enable our go-to-market teams. Support our sales and customer success teams. Identify and deliver assets, programs, and campaigns to accelerate our self-serve acquisition, including webinars and pre-recorded demos. Prepare and drive enterprise cases studies as sales enablement material, drive partnership opportunities and support analyst relations.
