About the role

We are looking for a Principal Technical Product Marketing Manager to own the messaging, positioning, and go-to-market narrative across our commercial business.

Responsibilities

  • Own and set the messaging and positioning strategy across commercial audiences, and keep it sharp as the product and market evolve.
  • Define how webAI positions itself in the category, shaping the narrative that differentiates us in a fast-moving AI market.
  • Partner closely with commercial sales and business development teams to understand their selling motion end to end, then build the content, narratives, and assets that accelerate deal velocity at each stage of the funnel.
  • Work directly with product managers and engineering to understand the platform at a technical level, stay ahead of the roadmap, and influence it with market and customer insight.
  • Translate complex AI concepts, including on-device inference, model performance, privacy, and security, into language that lands with technical and non-technical buyers alike.
  • Collaborate with PMs and engineering to design and build compelling product demos tailored to potential customers.
  • Develop sales enablement materials such as pitch decks, one-pagers, battlecards, solution briefs, FAQs, and competitive positioning.
  • Lead product launches end to end, from positioning and narrative through to field enablement and readiness.
  • Raise the craft of product marketing across the team, setting standards and mentoring others without requiring formal management authority.
  • Gather and synthesize input from customers, the field, and the market to inform positioning, messaging, and product direction.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of product marketing experience with a strong technical orientation, including time at a startup or a fast-growing private or public technology company.
  • A track record of owning messaging and positioning strategy that sales and BD teams adopt and that measurably moves pipeline and deal velocity.
  • Demonstrated ability to operate as a senior individual contributor: setting direction, driving cross-functional initiatives, and delivering with minimal oversight.
  • The ability to go deep on technical subject matter, particularly AI and machine learning concepts, and explain it clearly to a range of audiences.
  • Excellent writing and storytelling skills, with the judgment to adapt tone and depth to the audience.
  • A history of influencing peers, leaders, and roadmap direction without formal authority, and of raising the bar for those around you.
  • A self-starter mindset and the resilience to thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous, high-growth environment.
  • Bachelor's degree, minimum. Preferred Skills: Experience in developer marketing or working directly with AI/ML practitioners.
  • Familiarity with on-device, edge, or distributed AI, including running and optimizing large models on local or consumer hardware.
  • Knowledge of cloud infrastructure and AI model deployment.
  • Strong technical acumen with hands-on experience in AI, ML, vector search, cloud computing, or databases.
  • Proven track record in launching technical products and driving adoption in commercial and developer communities.
  • Experience working cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Developer Relations, and Sales teams.
  • Hands-on experience building or scripting product demos.
