You will help market a portfolio of offensive-security products and training to technically sophisticated red teamers, penetration testers, security leaders, and other practitioners. Success in this role requires more than translating standard cybersecurity messaging: you will learn how the products work, understand the problems they solve, and turn that knowledge into technically accurate, distinctive, and engaging positioning and content.

KEY COMPENTENCIES Technical curiosity and audience empathy * Enjoys learning how complex technical products work and is motivated to earn credibility with expert audiences. * Understands that technical audience responds to practical, specific, technically grounded communication—not generic cybersecurity language. * Editorial judgment and precision Translates complicated technical information into clear, useful, and engaging marketing and sales content without losing important nuance * Asks good questions, validates claims, and challenges vague, inflated, or unsupported language. * Strategic ownership Prioritizes work across multiple brands, connects content and messaging to business goals, and turns strategy into practical execution. * Accountability * Takes ownership of goals and outcomes, delivers high-quality work on time, and communicates clearly when priorities or assumptions change. Collaboration * Works effectively with technical and nontechnical partners, seeks feedback, and builds productive relationships across Marketing, Sales, Product, and subject matter experts. * Communicates with professionalism while preserving the directness, specificity, and personality appropriate for the audiences and brands being marketed. QUALIFICATIONS * 2+ years of experience in product marketing, technical content, technical product management, technical sales, sales engineering, security research, or a related role in a B2B technology environment. * Experience in cybersecurity, developer tools, infrastructure, or another technically complex B2B market preferred. * Demonstrated ability and motivation to learn complex products and develop credible subject matter expertise.Experience in cybersecurity, developer tools, infrastructure, or another technically complex B2B market preferred. * Proven ability to translate technical material into accurate, engaging content for technical practitioners and business stakeholders. * Portfolio demonstrating excellent writing, editing, positioning, content strategy, or related work; strong oral, written, and presentation skills. * Comfortable interviewing subject matter experts, validating technical claims, and improving copy through substantive editing. * Strong organization and time-management skills, with the ability to prioritize work across multiple brands and projects. * Collaborative, resourceful, and comfortable working cross-functionally with Marketing, Sales, Product, and technical teams. * Self-directed but also a team player.
