• Build and Mentor a High-Performing Technical Marketing Team, fostering a culture of technical excellence, impact, and operational rigor to consistently deliver world-class technical assets and programs at scale.
• Drive Technical Thought Leadership by delivering compelling, executive-level technical presentations at major industry conferences, webinars, and field events, positioning Pure and Portworx as the indispensable partner for modern data services on Kubernetes.
• Develop Foundational Technical Content—including benchmarks, deep-dive whitepapers, hands-on workshops, and customer-ready demos—to equip our global Sales and Partner teams with the tools to successfully simplify and sell our solutions.
• Spearhead Cross-Functional Alignment with Product Management, Sales Engineering, and Product Marketing to ensure a unified GTM motion, validating messaging, influencing product roadmap, and securing technical win rates in strategic customer engagements.

WHAT YOU BRING

• Exceptional understanding of Kubernetes, containers, cloud-native data management, and the ecosystem of modern databases and AI/ML workloads.
• Proven ability to define a comprehensive technical content portfolio and personally create highly technical, customer-facing assets, including demos, proofs-of-concept, and benchmarks.
• Demonstrated success in leading, mentoring, and managing a team of experienced technical professionals, setting clear priorities, and ensuring predictable delivery on strategic objectives.
• Exceptional presence and verbal communication ability, comfortable presenting complex technical material to audiences ranging from technical experts to executive leadership and large industry crowds.
