Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've spent 8+ years in technical or product marketing roles for hardware, instrumentation, or B2B engineering software
  • You can speak the language of oscilloscopes, DAQ systems, and test automation—or learn it fast with hands-on hardware
  • You're a versatile creator: you can write a tight white paper, direct a demo video, and present to a room of PhDs with equal confidence
  • You thrive owning product launches end-to-end and love cross-functional collaboration with R&D, sales, and product teams
Won't Work If
  • You need remote flexibility—this role is on-site only in Austin, TX
  • You've only done B2C or consumer marketing; this is deep technical B2B with complex buyer journeys
  • You're uncomfortable getting technical and diving into instrumentation specs, use cases, and competitive positioning
