Requirements

  • Strong alignment with our values. Find our values on our career page if you haven’t read up on them yet.
  • You are proficient in English (spoken, written, and reading) at a CEFR Level C1 / ILR Level 5.
  • 5+ years of product marketing experience, preferably within a high-growth, software company environment, with a strong emphasis on messaging, positioning, and copywriting.
  • A commitment to excellence and craft. We sweat the small details. We obsess over copy, clarity, and consistency. We hold a high bar for how our product and brand show up in the world, and we expect you to do the same.
  • Exceptional written communication skills. You are an excellent writer and editor. In a fully remote, async company, writing is one of your most important tools.
  • Proven ability to create high-impact messaging that resonates with diverse audiences and drives real outcomes, from product adoption to revenue growth.
  • Strong storytelling and simplification skills. You’re able to take complex product surfaces and translate them into clear, compelling narratives that customers immediately understand and value.
  • Experience crafting positioning frameworks and leading go-to-market strategies for new product launches, working cross-functionally from strategy through execution.
  • A deep understanding of customer personas and pain points, and a demonstrated ability to address them through thoughtful, customer-first messaging.
  • A strong sense of ownership. You take responsibility end-to-end, from defining the problem to shipping the solution and measuring impact. You don’t wait to be told what to do, and you care deeply about the outcomes of your work.
  • A track record of effective cross-functional collaboration with Product, Growth, Sales, and Customer Success to deliver successful launches and campaigns.
  • A strong work ethic and comfort with high expectations. We’re a fast-growing, venture-backed company with ambitious plans. This role is high-impact and high-accountability, and it’s best suited for someone who thrives in that environment.

  • Parental leave for parents expanding their family, or just starting one.
  • Home office stipend to help you get up and running.
  • Learning & development stipend to help you level up your professional skills.
  • Annual bonus potential for roles that don't already receive variable income or commission.
