Job Description

Responsibilities

Lead creation of case studies and technical proof points that demonstrate product value to mechanical engineering audiences.
Collaborate with Product and Engineering to translate complex technical wins into persuasive narratives for customers and prospects.
Own customer onboarding materials, anticipating technical friction points during early adoption.
Create sales enablement assets — including POC guides, Champion Kits, and master decks — that convert technically skeptical prospects.
Maintain post-sales knowledge resources, including a product knowledge base and step-by-step product guides.
Draft 2–3 deep-dive technical blog posts per quarter and contribute to newsletter copy in partnership with the Growth team.
Act as the internal lead for website messaging and help evolve product positioning over time.
Support webinars and demand-generation efforts with engineering-first content and technical credibility.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (dealbreaker requirement).
2+ years of hands-on experience working as a mechanical engineer, with direct familiarity with ME workflows and pain points.
Demonstrated ability to document and structure technical content with measurable impact — outcomes, numbers, and ownership over final content form.
Proven ability to translate complex mechanical engineering problems into customer-facing explanations for both engineers and executives.

Preferred

Experience producing technical content for engineering audiences (case studies, onboarding guides, champion kits, proof-of-concept materials).
Experience creating content for website evolution, webinars, and demand-generation assets.
MBA or demonstrated business acumen connecting technical depth to bottom-line business value.
Experience enabling engineering customers through technical guides and knowledge base content.
Formal product marketing experience (a plus, not required).
Proof-obsessed: you prefer "show, don’t tell" and take ownership over content performance.
Strong examples of technical writing, documentation, or presentations that communicate engineering concepts and real-world impact.
