Job Summary

Drive product marketing for a PLG SaaS platform by shaping narrative, GTM launches, and in‑product messaging.

  • Own end-to-end GTM launches with briefs, timelines, and cross-functional readiness.
  • Define segmentation and messaging tied to onboarding and activation.
  • Lead in-product messaging strategy and PLG moments with Product and Lifecycle.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Narrative, messaging & positioning: Develop differentiated positioning grounded in customer insight and competitive reality; build messaging frameworks that scale across assets (one-pagers, sales decks, lifecycle emails, in-app copy); partner with the Director of PMM on narrative architecture for major releases; maintain consistency across all surfaces
  • Launch operations (GTM execution): Own launch planning and execution end-to-end—scoping releases, writing briefs, building timelines, and driving readiness; coordinate across Product, Marketing, Growth, Lifecycle, and Creative; translate roadmap into sequenced GTM plans with clear owners; set and run the release cadence so the right level of marketing support matches each release
  • Segmentation & targeting: Partner with Growth/Data to sharpen audiences (who we’re speaking to, what they care about, where they are in the journey); connect segmentation to messaging so targeting and in-product experiences feel personal and perform; feed learnings back into roadmap and positioning
  • In-product marketing (Lifecycle + PLG): Lead in-product messaging strategy (tooltips, empty states, onboarding flows, feature announcements) with Product; support product-led growth by identifying friction, surfacing upgrade moments, and driving activation/conversion; ensure in-product and out-of-product messaging work together with Lifecycle
  • Cross-functional influence: Be a trusted day-to-day partner to Product, Growth, Lifecycle, and Creative; show up in roadmap conversations (not just launches) to influence what gets built and how it’s sequenced; represent the customer voice internally with data and direct research

Requirements

  • 5–8 years in product marketing (B2C or B2B SaaS)
  • Narrative craft: you’ve created positioning/messaging that changed how a product was understood, talked about, or sold
  • Launch operator muscle: you’ve led GTM for multiple launches and know what good looks like—strong briefs, clear ownership, tight timelines, and high-quality outputs
  • Strong segmentation fundamentals; able to challenge targeting decisions and ask sharper questions of data
  • Some in-product messaging and/or PLG experience
  • Comfortable in ambiguity; energized by building the playbook while shipping
  • Writes with clarity and economy (no jargon, no bloated decks)
  • Can manage up and across without politics

Preferred

  • Experience in creator economy, photo/video, or consumer subscription products
  • Familiarity with lifecycle tools (Braze, Iterable, Customer.io) and how to brief a lifecycle team
  • Startup/early-stage PMM experience building process while shipping
  • Experience creating repeatable systems and implementing them through influence

Benefits

  • Hybrid work with an office in San Francisco, CA
  • Regular in-person events to connect and collaborate
  • Competitive salary & equity
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and families
  • Flexible Time Off
