Principal Manager, Communications & Developer Influence

We're Redis. We built the product that runs the fast apps our world runs on. (If you checked the weather, used your credit card, or looked at your flight status online today, you’re welcome.) At Redis, you’ll work with the fastest, simplest technology in the business- whether you’re building it, telling its story, or selling it to our 10,000+ worldwide customers.

We’re creating a faster world with simpler experiences. You in?

As Redis expands its leadership as a real-time agentic platform, we're looking for a communications leader who can help shape how the company is understood by customers, media, and the broader technology industry. As part of the Brand team, you'll develop communications strategies for PR, influencer and developer marketing, and social media that strengthen our reputation, elevate our executives, and position Redis at the center of the conversations that matter most.

You'll partner closely with executives, product marketing, and customer marketing to tell compelling stories through media relations, thought leadership, executive visibility, influencer programs, and social media. You'll work in close partnership with Developer Marketing, owning the media, creator, and social amplification layer that puts their work in front of the right audiences. And you'll help define our corporate narrative while ensuring every communication reinforces the Redis brand.

We're looking for someone with excellent communications instincts, a confident POV on agentic work flows, and a proven ability to advise senior leaders, manage agency partners, and execute high-impact communications programs in a fast-moving technology company. This is a senior individual contributor role with broad ownership across corporate communications. You'll extend your impact through agency partners, AI, and cross-functional collaboration.
