Responsibilities:

  • Messaging & Positioning: Define clear, differentiated messaging for our platform and products across personas and segments.

  • Customer & Market Insights: Work with customers, analysts, and internal teams to surface insights that shape GTM strategy and roadmap.
  • Sales Enablement: Equip our sales team with the tools, training, and narratives they need to win. 

Qualifications:

  • 5+ years in B2B product marketing, preferably in infrastructure, DevOps, security, or developer tools.
  • Strong writer and storyteller with the ability to translate technical features into customer value.
  • Experience owning messaging, launches, and sales enablement in cross-functional teams.
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced startup environment—where you have to balance speed, strategy, and collaboration
  • Familiarity with Kubernetes, open source, or cloud-native technologies is a strong plus.
  • Bonus: Experience marketing to platform engineering, DevSecOps, or cloud infrastructure buyers.

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of defining a fast-growing category at the intersection of Kubernetes, policy-as-code, and security.
  • Work with a product customers love—built on top of one of the most-used open-source policy engines.
  • Make your mark early at a company entering its next phase of growth.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

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.
