Sr Product Marketing Manager - Tech Alliances

Obsidian Security is the leading SaaS security platform, trusted by global enterprises like Snowflake, T-Mobily, and Algolia. We protect 200+ organizations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, including many of the world’s largest Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.

Founded in 2017 and backed by top investors like Greylock, Obsidian was built to close a critical gap: securing SaaS apps where business happens—Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and hundreds more. The company does this by offering a complete SaaS security platform to reduce risk, detect and respond to threats, and prevent breaches at the source. Obsidian was built by leaders who redefined endpoint and identity security at Crowd Strike, Okta, Cylance, and Carbon Black.

Now, they’re transforming how SaaS is secured.

With AI driving rapid SaaS growth and complexity, agentic AI tools gain privileged access to sensitive data through integrations, creating new risks most security tools miss. Obsidian uniquely detects anomalous OAuth token activity and manages integration risks. Major announcements are on the horizon. Recognizing that SaaS security needs to evolve, Obsidian enables growing organizations to start with a lightweight, prevention-focused browser extension and expand coverage over time.

With global momentum, a growing partner ecosystem including Sentinel One, Databricks, and Google Cloud, and a major fundraise ahead, Obsidian is scaling rapidly toward long-term growth and IPO readiness.

We are hiring a Senior Product Marketing Manager to own two of the highest-leverage narratives at Obsidian: why we are better together with our strategic partners, and why our architecture solves problems no one else can.

This role sits at the intersection of alliances marketing and technical product marketing, and it owns competitive intelligence for the company. You will define how Obsidian shows up alongside our strategic technology alliances, building the joint value propositions, launch narratives, and enablement that turn partnerships into pipeline and supporting the GTM models that bring those alliances to market. At the same time, you will go deep with Product and Engineering to understand how the platform works, from our knowledge graph to our data depth and detection architecture, and elevate that “how” into a durable “why”: why Obsidian is uniquely positioned to secure third‑party applications and AI agents where alternative architectures structurally fall short.

You will be the positioning authority the field, our partners, and our executives turn to for evidence‑based answers on how we win, both in architecture and in direct competition.

This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who can think strategically, move quickly, and help shape how we scale both partner marketing and competitive positioning at Obsidian.

• Own the competitive intelligence function: monitor competitor products, architectures, disclosures, and market signals, and distill them into succinct, actionable guidance for sales, product, and leadership
