Building a great product is not the same as successfully bringing it to market. Every roadmap conversation, launch, webpage, sales deck, and customer evaluation is an opportunity to tell a clear, consistent story.

We’re seeking an Associate Product Marketing Manager to help make Starburst easier to understand, buy, and sell. You will translate technical product capabilities into clear customer value, bring new products and features to market, and connect what we build to the revenue plays that help customers discover, evaluate, and purchase Starburst.

• Gather customer, buyer, competitive, and field intelligence through interviews, win/loss analysis, seller engagement, and direct customer conversations
• Measure impact using product adoption, launch engagement, pipeline, revenue‑play performance, and qualitative field and customer evidence
• Help establish the operating system for a growing Product Marketing function, including reusable messaging, launch processes, templates, planning cadences, and feedback loops
