• You’ve created meaningful PMM relationships with R&D
• You’ve led a global team that has an emphasis on diversity and inclusion to drive the best thinking, outputs and results.

A background like this helps:

• Significant and impactful leadership experience in product marketing at a high-growth/pre-IPO B2B SaaS company.
• The technical depth required to understand how our products work and how customers derive value from them.
• A clear ability to articulate your ideas verbally and in writing while being able to help others do the same.
• Experience catering to financial services, government, and/or web3 audiences.
