Product Marketing Manager
EventualAbout Eventual
Eventual is a data platform that helps data scientists and engineers build data applications across ETL, analytics and ML/AI.
OUR PRODUCT IS OPEN-SOURCE AND USED AT ENTERPRISE SCALE
Our distributed data engine Daft is open-sourced and runs on 800k CPU cores daily at companies such as Amazon, TogetherAI and CloudKitchens. This is more compute than Frontier, the world's largest supercomputer!
Today's data tooling (Spark, Presto, Snowflake) was built for a world of tabular data analytics, but does not generalize to the needs of modern ML/AI such as multimodal data, heterogenous GPU compute and user-defined Python algorithms. Eventual and Daft bridge that gap, making ML/AI workloads easy to run alongside traditional tabular workloads.
Key Responsibilities
As our team's Product Marketing Manager, you will be an early member of team Eventual with primary responsibilities around growing the Daft open-source project.
Your key responsibilities will include:
Developing and executing the go-to-market strategy for Daft, growing adoption across engineers and researchers working on the cutting edge of ML/AI
Keeping a pulse on the latest developments in ML/AI and data, crafting compelling content (blog posts, case studies, documentation) that demonstrates Daft's unique value propositions
Building relationships with key community members, contributors, and enterprise users
Working closely with engineering to bring the amazing technical capabilities we're building every day to life as content that resonates with our target users
Establishing metrics to measure adoption, engagement, and community growth
Evangelizing Daft at industry events, meetups, and conferences
Collaborating with enterprise customers to develop success stories and testimonials
What we look for
We are looking for a candidate with technical depth who can effectively communicate complex concepts to technical audiences.
Our ideal candidate has:
5 - 10 years of product marketing experience, preferably with developer tools, data platforms, or open source technologies
Strong technical foundation that enables understanding data tools and ML/AI workloads
Proven experience growing developer communities and driving adoption of technical products
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with that special ability to explain complex technical concepts
Data-driven approach to measuring and optimizing marketing initiatives
Experience with content creation, including technical blogs, documentation, and thought leadership pieces
Familiarity with open source development models and community building
Most importantly, we are looking for someone who works well in small, focused teams with fast iterations and lots of autonomy. If you are passionate about developer tools, intellectually curious about data technologies, and excited to build communities around transformative open source software, we want you on the team!
Benefits and Remote Work
We are believers in both having the flexibility of remote work but also the importance of in-person work, especially at the earliest stages of a startup. We have a flexible hybrid approach to in-person work with at least 3 days of in-person work typically from Monday - Wednesday at our office in San Francisco.
We believe in providing employees with best-in-class compensation and benefits including meal allowances, Unlimited PTO, conferences, comprehensive health coverage including medical, dental, vision and more.
