Product Marketing Manager - Ecosystem

Denver, Colorado, United States

About the Opportunity

Contentful is the leading content platform for digital-first businesses, enabling teams to unify and personalize content and deliver it at scale. We are looking for a Product Marketing Manager to lead the messaging and positioning  for our Ecosystem product group, which includes the Marketplace, Extensibility platform, and Developer Experience. This role is pivotal in ensuring that our ecosystem solutions are clearly understood and adopted by customers, partners, and developers alike.

You’ll collaborate closely with Product, Sales, Partner Marketing, Partnerships, Enablement, and the broader Marketing and GTM teams to shape messaging, build launch strategies, and drive adoption across multiple audiences.

This is a high-impact role for someone excited to work at the intersection of platform strategy, developer experience, and partner-led growth.

What to Expect

  • Product Positioning & Messaging: You will be responsible for developing clear and differentiated positioning and messaging for the Ecosystem product group—including the Marketplace, Extensibility features, and Developer Experience. Your focus will be on articulating how these capabilities create business value, crafting content that resonates with both technical and non-technical audiences. Messaging should align with Contentful’s overall brand narrative while highlighting the specific strengths of the Ecosystem offering.
  • Go-to-Market Strategy & Execution: You will collaborate closely with the GTM PMM team and lead go-to-market execution for new partner-driven initiatives and launches across the Ecosystem.

You’ll also work closely with Partner Marketing to promote integrations and raise awareness of Marketplace offerings.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: You’ll collaborate with a wide range of internal stakeholders including Product, Partnerships, Sales, Customer Success, and Enablement. Your role will involve aligning teams around GTM goals, supporting internal training, and ensuring our partner ecosystem is well-positioned to succeed. You’ll also support the Partnerships team by creating materials and strategies that promote integration adoption and partner value.
  • Storytelling & Enablement: A core part of your role will be creating compelling product stories that illustrate how Contentful’s ecosystem delivers value. This includes messaging frameworks, announcement copy, sales enablement tools, and case studies. You’ll work with Sales and Enablement to make sure our teams are equipped to communicate the value of our ecosystem to customers and prospects alike.
  • Market Research & Insights: You will collaborate closely with the Product Research team to gather insights on market trends, customer needs, and the competitive landscape. These insights will help validate positioning, inform messaging, and shape go-to-market priorities. Your ability to synthesize research into actionable recommendations will directly influence Ecosystem strategy.
  • Performance Measurement: You’ll be responsible for tracking the impact of your work through key metrics such as adoption, engagement, and partner-driven growth. By analyzing performance and surfacing insights, you’ll continuously improve messaging, refine GTM plans, and ensure your efforts are driving real business outcomes.

What You Need to Be Successful

  • Experience: 5+ years in B2B SaaS product marketing, ideally with exposure to platforms, partner ecosystems, or developer-oriented tools.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
