Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've led field or regional marketing at scale in enterprise tech and can own both strategy and execution
  • You thrive building global operating models—you balance consistency with regional autonomy
  • You're energized by emerging markets and can translate complex tech into compelling customer narratives
  • You measure everything: you tie marketing investments directly to pipeline and revenue outcomes
  • You want to hire and mentor a world-class team while staying hands-on with key accounts and campaigns
Won't Work If
  • You need mature, predictable demand gen playbooks—quantum is still early and requires creativity and market education
  • You're uncomfortable with ambiguity in company structure or reporting lines—this role is still being defined
  • You can't commit to 40% travel and hybrid presence in Seattle/DC—field leadership is hands-on
