Job Summary

Drive the infrastructure marketing lead for Kestra, translating deep technical capabilities into buyer-focused stories and enablement for engineers, SREs, and IT leaders.

  • Must-have: 5–8 years in product marketing with infrastructure/platform experience.
  • Standout: Proven ability to turn technical depth into compelling mixed-channel assets and field readiness.
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration across product, sales, and solutions engineering.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the core narrative for Kestra in infrastructure and cloud automation: what it is, who it's for, why it wins, and why it matters now.
  • Translate Kestra's technical depth — namespace isolation, hybrid execution, event-driven triggers, audit trails, plugin ecosystem — into stories that resonate with infrastructure engineers, platform engineers, SREs, DevOps leads, and IT operations executives.
  • Maintain messaging consistency across all channels and teams.
  • Create high-quality assets: solution briefs, architectural overviews, competitive positioning, customer stories, launch content, and deep technical guides.
  • Drive go-to-market launches for new infrastructure-related capabilities — from positioning through field readiness.
  • Build and maintain playbooks for the infrastructure segment: discovery, objection handling, competitive differentiation, ROI narrative.
  • Continuously enable Sales and Solutions Engineering — not just at launch, but as a living practice.
  • Engage directly with customers and prospects to validate and sharpen the narrative.
  • Track the market landscape — ServiceNow, Control-M, Ansible, Terraform, VMware vRA, Nutanix, HPE, Rundeck, Red Hat, and others — and turn insights into actionable positioning.
  • Help translate open-source community traction into enterprise credibility — one of Kestra's most distinctive advantages, and one that requires care to communicate well.

Requirements

  • 5–8 years in product marketing, with clear ownership experience in infrastructure, cloud automation, platform engineering, SRE, or IT operations.
  • You can go deep on a technical capability and come back up with a message that lands in a board slide. Both directions, fluently.
  • Strong written communication. You write clearly, not corporately. You know the difference between describing a feature and articulating a value.
  • Experience building content and enablement in a fast-moving B2B environment — without waiting for perfect information.
  • Comfort with ambiguity. Kestra's infrastructure segment is growing fast; you'll define as much as you'll execute.
  • Genuine familiarity with the infrastructure and cloud automation landscape — the tools, the buying patterns, the personas, the pain.
  • Data-driven by default. You measure what matters and use it to improve.

    Kestra

    3.2 Glassdoor

    Kestra is an open-source orchestration platform that makes both scheduled and event-driven workflows easy. By bringing Infrastructure as Code best practices to data, process, and microservice orchestration, you can build reliable workflows and manage them with confidence.In just a few lines of code, you can create a flow directly from the UI. Thanks to the declarative YAML interface for defining orchestration logic, business stakeholders can participate in the workflow creation process.Kestra offers a versatile set of language-agnostic developer tools while simultaneously providing an intuitive user interface tailored for business professionals. The YAML definition gets automatically adjusted any time you make changes to a workflow from the UI or via an API call. Therefore, the orchestration logic is always managed declaratively in code, even if some workflow components are modified in other ways (UI, CI/CD, Terraform, API calls).
