** Altera is seeking a Security Product Marketing Manager to define and drive our outward-facing security vision and narrative, translating advanced FPGA security capabilities into clear, differentiated customer value across design, data, and supply chain security.

* Equip sales teams with security-focused pitch decks, competitive positioning and objection handling, and use-case and vertical-specific messaging
* Analyze competitive security positioning to develop differentiated messaging highlighting FPGA-based crypto agility, lifecycle security advantages and supply chain protection capabilities
* Identify emerging trends and translate them into actionable marketing strategies
