Senior Director of Product Marketing

What you'll do

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of senior product marketers, setting a high bar for messaging quality, launch execution, and pipeline contribution.
• Own the company-wide product positioning and messaging architecture across all products, ensuring consistency from sales decks to analyst briefings.
• Define and execute go-to-market strategies for new and existing products in close collaboration with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Growth Marketing.
• Own the analyst relations (AR) program end-to-end: manage relationships with Gartner, Forrester, and IDC; lead the briefing and inquiry cadence; drive the company's response strategy to published research and competitive positioning in analyst reports.
• Own and drive new product introduction and new product launches cross-functionally.
• Serve as Pindrop's external authority on AI-driven voice security, representing the company at industry conferences, in analyst briefings, and in media engagements.
• Partner with the CMO to build Pindrop's category narrative for voice security and AI-driven fraud prevention.
• Drive competitive and market intelligence programs across all segments, including win/loss analysis, persona development, and competitive battle card ownership.
• Translate complex technical capabilities (Phoneprint, deepfake detection, carrier data signals, GenAI-powered fraud analysis) into evidence-led value-based storytelling that resonates with CISOs, fraud executives, and contact center leaders.
• Manage PMM program budgets and OKR accountability across all product lines, with direct ownership of pipeline influence and revenue metrics for the segment.
• Manage all internal and external product claims, customer reference programs, and documentation standards.
• Operate within Pindrop's agile pod model: serve as strategic advisor to each growth pod (Core, PFM, Healthcare) while holding the team accountable to sprint outputs and OKRs.

Who you are

• You build categories, not just launches. You think in terms of market moments, not just feature releases.
• You lead through context and coaching. You develop your team to own outcomes and escalate with recommendations, not just problems.
• You are deeply fluent in AI and security technology and can represent Pindrop's differentiation with authority to analysts, press, and executive buyers.
• You are rigorous about metrics: pipeline contribution, analyst positioning, sales enablement adoption, and win rates are how you measure your team's impact.
• You operate with clarity in ambiguity. You use tight documentation, crisp briefs, and clear DRI ownership to create alignment without unnecessary meetings.
• You take accountability, under-promise, and over-deliver. You are transparent when priorities shift and fast to re-align your team.

Must-haves

• 10+ years of B2B SaaS product marketing experience, with at least 3 years managing and developing a PMM team.
• Proven ownership of an analyst relations program with Gartner, Forrester, or IDC — including briefings, inquiry management, and positioning in published reports (Magic Quadrant, Wave, or equivalent).
• Direct GTM experience with AI, security, authentication, voice biometrics, or contact center solutions with evidence of pipeline and revenue impact.
• Track record of building positioning and messaging architectures that align sales, marketing, and product around a unified market narrative.
