Senior Product Marketing Manager

We are seeking an experienced Senior Product Marketing Manager to launch products, position them effectively, align our internal operations to support these launches, and communicate each product's vision, features, and strategy to our partners, our customers, and our own internal teams.
Expect high autonomy in exchange for comfort with ambiguity, agility, and a need to learn for oneself.
In essence, you will become a subject matter expert for our entire product catalog. This expertise extends to backend engineering concepts around AWS as well as highly technical domains like cybersecurity. So you will need to be able to quickly learn complex topics and distill them into the simplest forms that still retain their key elements.
This role is also fundamentally ambassadorial. To succeed, you must build strong relationships across departments in Mission (Sales, Product, Engineering, etc.) and our partners, including AWS itself.
What is your purpose? You help Mission to understand and become itself!-what the product is, why we're launching it, what makes it different, how to sell it, what it can and can't do, and how to best operationalize it. In all of this you'll also be expected to act as the Voice of the Customer, understanding who buys from us, why they do (or don't), and how best to engage them and grow sales and revenue.
This position is 100% remote.
