What you'll be doing

• Lead customer research including interviews, surveys, and call reviews to deepen understanding of buyer behavior, pain points, and decision criteria—and ensure those insights flow continuously into messaging, content, and enablement
• Own PDQ’s competitive intelligence program end-to-end—tracking competitors, synthesizing signals, and delivering timely, actionable insights to stakeholders across product, sales, and marketing
• Develop and refine product messaging and positioning that resonates with IT professionals and key buyer personas, differentiating PDQ’s offerings in a competitive market
• Partner with Product Management to influence roadmap prioritization based on market insight, customer feedback, and competitive dynamics

• Monitor market trends, pricing shifts, and product announcements to proactively inform product and go-to-market strategy, and develop a repeatable cadence for sharing competitive intelligence across the organization
• Serve as PDQ’s primary point of contact for industry analyst firms—managing ongoing relationships, preparing executive briefings, and ensuring PDQ is well-represented in relevant reports and market assessments
• Translate analyst feedback into internal recommendations that inform product positioning, roadmap, and messaging priorities, and pursue opportunities for PDQ to be featured in analyst research that drives credibility with buyers
• Pilot and scale AI-powered tools and workflows that improve the speed and quality of PMM outputs—including competitive research, sales tools, content development, win/loss synthesis, and persona refinement
• Identify where AI can systematically augment the PMM function and build lightweight processes the broader team can adopt, serving as an internal resource for best practices around AI use in marketing
• Create and maintain high-quality sales enablement materials including pitch decks, case studies, competitive battlecards, and objection-handling playbooks, and conduct training sessions to equip the Sales team with the knowledge and tools to win
