Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Develop a detailed understanding of Plaud’s software, AI systems, developer capabilities, and their connection to Plaud hardware.
  • Partner closely with Product, AI, Engineering, and Design to understand product architecture, technical documentation, roadmap decisions, and feature behavior.
  • Identify valuable capabilities and use cases that may not yet have been translated into customer-facing stories.
  • Turn technical functionality, specifications, and AI concepts into clear customer benefits without losing accuracy or substance.
  • Develop product FAQs, feature explanations, demo narratives, and technical education materials.
  • Define target audiences, customer problems, value propositions, positioning, message houses, use cases, and product narratives.
  • Build the foundational messaging for products including Plaud Intelligence, Plaud Teams, Plaud developer, etc.
  • Connect Plaud’s hardware, software, and AI capabilities into one cohesive customer experience and narrative.
  • Establish clear messaging hierarchies that global and regional teams can adapt to their audiences and channels.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of relevant experience across product marketing, product management, technical marketing, engineering, developer relations, or related roles.
  • Demonstrated ownership of meaningful projects from an ambiguous starting point through delivery.
  • The ability and curiosity to read technical documentation, understand how a product works, and engage credibly with Product, AI, and Engineering teams.
  • Excellent English writing and editing skills, with the ability to make complex ideas clear, structured, and compelling.
  • Strong command of positioning, value propositions, feature-to-benefit translation, customer use cases, and product storytelling.
  • The ability to think at both product and campaign levels: understanding the experience in detail while designing how the story should unfold across channels.
  • Strong cross-functional communication and project leadership skills.
  • Comfort operating in a fast-changing environment where priorities, inputs, and timelines may evolve quickly.
  • The judgment to act without a fully defined playbook and the resilience to incorporate direct feedback, revise the work, and move forward.
  • Fluency with AI tools and a thoughtful approach to using them for research, synthesis, writing, prototyping, and execution.

Preferred

  • Experience with AI applications, developer products, productivity software, collaboration tools, or technically sophisticated consumer products.

  • Understanding of responsible AI, privacy, security, and trust considerations.
