Why pursue a career in product marketing?
If you're currently working as a data practitioner but haven’t worked in a marketing or commercial role at a product company before, you might be wondering whether product marketing is the right career path for you.

Product marketing at a modern cloud data infrastructure startup means access to and influence over more parts of the business than normally possible in a non-executive position. From messaging to pricing and product roadmap, product marketers ensure the company's go-to-market strategy actually has the impact desired.

But you don’t need to have a day of marketing experience to excel in the role. Bogomil Balkansky describes the ideal technical product marketer as someone that just has "the right mindset, and the right functional skill set." With a deep understanding of and/or passion for the market and data engineering user, you're already halfway to exceptional. And while the cross-functional nature of this role between product and commercial can be challenging, it's equally rewarding. You'll see measurable business impact from your work, and gain a variety of skills that open the door to roles in product, marketing, operations, and even data leadership.

• Advanced degree in a quantitative field, e.g. economics, mathematics or engineering
• Around 4 years of experience in Product Marketing, (or around 6 years in similar B2B Marketing or Product roles), for a SaaS/cloud company
• Experience from the data & analytics space. If you see your career in this field long-term and you are ready to invest in learning about it, it is a bonus
• Direct experience of working with senior Product and Commercial leadership
• Coming from a fast-paced, high-growth organization, working with innovative and disruptive products gives you extra points

• Natural storyteller and communicator: apt at taking the highly technical and explaining it simply
• Visual eye: you can create imagery, videos and blog posts that not only hold great content but also look inspiring
• A quantitative mindset: You are able to measure what can be measured in your work. KPIs and targets is a no-brainer for you
