About this role

Discover a new career opportunity as the Head of Product Marketing at Fireworks AI in San Mateo. This strategic leadership role suits an experienced professional ready to shape market positioning and drive growth at a leading enterprise AI platform company.

Role Overview

The Head of Product Marketing owns a large part of how Fireworks AI presents itself in the market, building the messaging foundation, leading product launches, driving the competitive program, and arming the go-to-market team. This role reports to the SVP of Marketing and requires working from the San Mateo office three days per week to collaborate closely with product, sales, and engineering teams. The candidate will inherit a small product marketing team and build it further while translating deeply technical concepts into compelling developer and executive narratives.

Key Responsibilities

Own the company positioning, category narrative, corporate language, ICP definition, and messaging architecture across AI-Native, Digital-Native, and Enterprise accounts.
Lead end-to-end go-to-market strategies for major product launches in partnership with product and engineering, covering launch tiering, sales enablement, and press strategy.
Manage the competitive program by creating battlecards, conducting win/loss analysis, offering deal support for top opportunities, and directing the sales enablement curriculum.
Establish a structured listening function incorporating customer interviews, voice-of-customer programs, and analyst relations to feed insights back into leadership and product strategy.

Requirements

Bring 10+ years of product marketing experience, including 5+ years in a senior or leadership role.
Demonstrate experience scaling product marketing at a developer or infrastructure company.
Show a track record at a technical infrastructure company such as databases, observability, AI/ML platforms, or developer tools.
Possess a strong ability to translate deeply technical concepts into narratives suited for both developers and executive buyers.
Exhibit a bias toward shipping over polishing and possess the operational instincts to run a structured launch process.
Display fluency in competitive analysis and the capacity to teach sales representatives how to position against incumbents and challengers.
Have demonstrated experience marketing to multiple buyer profiles simultaneously, encompassing technical practitioners and economic buyers.

Nice to Have

Past experience marketing to AI/ML practitioners or ML platform buyers.
