Description
Sprout Social is hiring a Senior Product Marketing Manager to serve as a strategic lead and key executor for our AI and emerging technology portfolio.

Translate complex AI/LLM architectures and data science models into clear, outcome-driven value propositions for senior enterprise decision-makers, industry analysts, and internal stakeholders.
Solve Complex Problems & Drive Execution: Analyze market shifts, competitive dynamics, and buyer behavior to identify high-impact growth opportunities. Hands-on roll up your sleeves to develop and execute targeted campaigns and tactical interventions to unblock stalled funnels and accelerate market adoption across customer segments.
Drive Cross-Functional Influence & Mentorship: Serve as a trusted advisor to Product and Revenue leadership. Provide strategic guidance and mentorship to team members, elevating the overall craft, rigor, and strategic impact of the product marketing organization.

Deep AI & SaaS Acumen: Deep conceptual and practical understanding of AI, machine learning, and natural language processing applications in enterprise SaaS, enabling you to partner credibly with Product/Engineering leaders and influence roadmap decisions.
Strategic Vision paired with Tactical Execution: Proven ability to balance high-level strategic thinking with hands-on content creation and execution, looking beyond individual feature sets to connect product capabilities directly to corporate revenue goals and market expansion.
High Autonomy & End-to-End Execution: Proven track record of self-initiating assignments, navigating high ambiguity, and both determining strategic priorities and directly executing deliverables that drive business impact without requiring day-to-day oversight.
Cross-Departmental Leadership: Ability to command a room, navigate complex stakeholder dynamics, and unite diverse teams (Sales, Product, Executive Leadership, Brand) around a unified strategic direction.
Systemic Innovation: History of continuously improving entire systems, processes, or GTM models by applying industry best practices and innovative frameworks.
