You know great products don't sell themselves. The best ones are brought to market by people who deeply understand their customers, can simplify complex technology, and know how to tell stories that resonate with technical buyers.
If you're passionate about cybersecurity, enjoy partnering across Product, Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing, and love translating technical capabilities into clear customer value, we'd love to talk.
At Expel, we're redefining how organizations approach Managed Detection and Response (MDR). In a market crowded with vendors focused on products, we focus on outcomes. Our customers trust us to help them detect, investigate, and respond to threats faster, and Product Marketing plays a critical role in helping tell that story.
As a Senior Product Marketing Manager, you'll own product marketing for a key slice of Expel's portfolio, our threat hunting, phishing, and add-on services, alongside the orchestration and automation areas of our MDR service. You'll partner closely with Product Management, Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and executive stakeholders to develop messaging, launch new capabilities, enable customer-facing teams, and create compelling content that helps customers understand why Expel is different.
This role blends real ownership with hands-on execution. You'll drive strategy and GTM plans for your focus areas while partnering closely with a small, talented product marketing team. This isn't a role where you'll be flying solo, but it is one where you'll be trusted to run your own areas of the business.
What Expel can do for you
- Give you the opportunity to influence how one of the industry's leading MDR providers tells its story.
- Surround you with collaborative Product, Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and Engineering teams that genuinely enjoy building together.
- Give you the freedom to experiment with new messaging, launch strategies, and AI-powered workflows that help us move faster.
- Let you own meaningful initiatives while continuing to grow your product marketing expertise.
- Provide the opportunity to influence go-to-market strategy while remaining close to customers and products.

- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with the ability to simplify highly technical cybersecurity concepts for multiple audiences.
