Senior Product Marketing Manager
Product Marketing is the art and science of working collaboratively - with product, marketing, sales, and channel - to define and deliver a company’s total value to our audience and customers. We use our knowledge of the customer, market, and competitive intelligence to connect customer needs to value-based Markforged solutions that differentiate us to drive growth in the market. The team draws on its market and customer expertise to provide go-to-market leadership, drive new product introductions, and create messaging, positioning, content, and sales tools.
Product Marketing Managers lead highly impactful and visible cross-functional programs that accelerate sales, unlock revenue growth, increase demand for our product, and build awareness of Markforged. Our challenge is to explain to the market new and complex technology in a distilled way that our customers get.
