Sr. Operations Manager- Product Marketing

We are looking for someone who looks at systems and ways of doing things, and helps Product Marketing operate more efficiently and effectively, predominantly by putting AI streamlining in place. This is a remote position open to candidates based in the US. You should apply if: Build the PMM Context Layer for AI: Create and maintain a structured source of truth for messaging, ICP, and positioning that PMM, downstream teams, and AI tools can draw on to generate campaigns, decks, blog posts, and launch content, without waiting on a person to translate it each time. Own the Operations System End to End for PMM: Apply a system-first approach to how the team runs. Build the intake, tasking, and ticketing system. Turn PMM workflows, QBR materials, onboarding docs, and team processes into templates and tooling that generate themselves Elevate the PMM Team: Act as a force multiplier, identifying opportunities to improve how the team works and delivering on them. Own the Context Layer: Maintain the structured sources of truth, messaging, ICP, positioning, that PMM, downstream teams, and AI tools draw on to generate campaigns, decks, and launch content. Manage the Program End to End: Track dependencies and open items across concurrent workstreams, launch alignment, directorate coordination, ops rollouts, to resolution, so nothing drops between the systems you build and the humans who run the relationships. Architect the AI-Powered Launch Engine: Lead the redesign of Samsara's launch approach. Partner with stakeholders to synthesize what's coming from the product, including features, timing, and tiers. Design the requirements for automated workflows that organize this into narratives, tier by strategic priority, and make the launch plan a living source of truth. Streamline PMM steps, from intake and templates, to derivative content. Make outputs easier for downstream teams to consume, with less manual synthesis and more automation. Minimum Requirements: Experience: 5+ years in Product Marketing, Product Management, Product Ops, Program Management, or related role AI Fluency: Deep, hands-on experience using AI to identify, re-architect, and build multi-step workflows or automated processes end-to-end. This goes beyond layering AI on top of a process that already exists, but fundamentally rethinking how the work gets done. You can point to something you've actually built with AI, and you're excited to keep pushing what's possible. Program Management Depth: Experience managing complex, multi-stakeholder programs with competing timelines and dependencies. Builder Mentality / Ambiguity Tolerance: Proven ability to build something from a blank canvas rather than execute an inherited playbook; comfortable operating without a clear roadmap and moving fluidly between AI-systems work and whatever else PMM needs to succeed. Cross-Functional Range: Strong track record of driving alignment across Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing organizations at multiple levels of seniority Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills Education: Bachelor's degree required. An ideal candidate also has: Release Marketing / NPI Experience: Has driven a new-product-introduction or release process, built or improved tiering frameworks, launch calendars, or launch-readiness criteria. PMM Team-Building Experience: Has helped a PMM team level up through operational improvements, shared rituals, or team programming.
