Job Summary

Own PLM product marketing by shaping differentiated messaging, GTM strategies, and market intelligence across industries, while collaborating with product, sales, and marketing teams to accelerate wins.

  • Own messaging and positioning for PLM portfolios
  • Lead GTM planning, demand enablement, and competitive intelligence

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Strategic Messaging & Positioning
  • Develop differentiated messaging and positioning for key areas of PTC’s PLM portfolio that resonate with engineering leaders, IT decision-makers, and C-suite executives across target industries (Automotive, Aerospace & Defense, Industrial Equipment, Medical Devices, Electronics & High-Tech).
  • Collaborate with product marketing teammates to build cross-portfolio solution narratives that articulate the value of PLM in the context of PTC’s broader technology ecosystem — including integrated product engineering, digital thread, and AI-driven workflows.
  • Go-to-Market Execution
  • Drive GTM strategy and execution for PLM product launches, feature releases, and platform milestones within your focus areas — from positioning and campaign themes to launch readiness and post-launch optimization.
  • Partner with Growth Marketing and Demand Generation to develop campaign strategies that drive pipeline acceleration and customer engagement across industry verticals and geographies.
  • Competitive & Market Intelligence
  • Conduct deep competitive analysis and market research to inform positioning, identify whitespace opportunities, and equip the organization with actionable intelligence on market shifts, buyer behavior, and competitive threats.
  • Serve as a key PLM market expert within PTC — engaging with analysts (Gartner, IDC, Forrester), press, and industry influencers to strengthen PTC’s market position.
  • Sales Enablement & Customer Advocacy

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience in product marketing, solutions marketing, or GTM strategy roles within B2B enterprise software — with significant depth in PLM, engineering software, or adjacent manufacturing technology domains.
  • Deep PLM domain expertise. You understand the PLM landscape — the technology, the buyers, the competitive dynamics, and the industry workflows. Ideally, you’ve worked at a PLM software vendor or in a PLM-adjacent role at a discrete manufacturer.
  • Proven ability to develop strategic messaging and positioning that differentiates in competitive enterprise markets — not just feature/function marketing, but narrative-level storytelling that moves markets.
  • Experience with portfolio-level and solution-level marketing — you can zoom out from a single product to craft integrated solution stories that connect across a technology portfolio.
  • Track record of influencing without authority — you’ve partnered with product leaders, sales executives, and senior marketers to drive alignment and outcomes across complex organizations.
  • Strong analytical skills — comfortable synthesizing market data, customer insights, competitive intelligence, and business metrics into actionable marketing strategy.
  • Exceptional communication skills — written, verbal, and visual. You can build a compelling executive presentation, write a crisp analyst brief, and deliver a persuasive product narrative to a room of senior leaders.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, Engineering, or a related field.

Preferred

  • MBA or advanced degree.
  • Demonstrated experience leveraging AI and generative AI tools to accelerate product marketing workflows — from market research and competitive analysis to narrative development, content creation, and campaign optimization. We’re looking for someone who sees AI not just as a topic they market, but as a tool that transforms how they work.
  • Experience marketing cloud/SaaS transformation of traditionally on-premise enterprise software.
  • Familiarity with adjacent technology domains — CAD, ALM, Simulation, IoT, SLM — and how they intersect with PLM.
  • Background in one or more target industries: Automotive, Aerospace & Defense, Industrial Equipment, Medical Devices, Electronics & High-Tech.
  • Experience with analyst relations (Gartner, IDC, Forrester) and competitive benchmarking frameworks.
  • Hands-on experience with PLM platforms (Windchill, Teamcenter, Enovia, Arena, or similar.).
