About the Role
~1 min readWe're looking for someone to own product marketing at Drivetrain end to end.
That means being the bridge between what we build and how the market understands it: sharpening how we position against legacy EPM incumbents and spreadsheet inertia, running launches that land, arming our sales team with narratives that win competitive deals, and driving in-app adoption so customers go deeper into the product rather than plateauing after onboarding.
This is a builder's role, not a maintenance one. You'll be defining the function — the messaging architecture, the launch process, the competitive intelligence program — and as the team grows, hiring and developing the people who run it.
Responsibilities
~1 min read- Own the company narrative and product-level messaging: why Drivetrain, why now, why not the alternative. Make it specific enough that a finance buyer feels understood.
- Build and maintain the messaging architecture across personas (CFO, VP Finance, FP&A manager) and segments, and hold the organization to it.
- Develop pricing and packaging recommendations in partnership with Product and Sales, grounded in willingness-to-pay research rather than instinct.
- Run product launches end to end — tiering, positioning, enablement, content, timing, and post-launch measurement. Define what a successful launch looks like before it ships.
- Partner closely with Product on roadmap inputs, bringing market and competitive evidence into prioritization conversations.
- Drive in-app product adoption in partnership with Product and Customer Success: onboarding narratives, feature discovery, lifecycle messaging. Increase usage and stickiness, and turn that into retention and expansion.
- Instrument it. Know which cohorts are adopting what, and why the others aren't.
- Set the editorial bar for everything we publish — research reports, whitepapers, case studies, website copy — and defend the difference between genuinely good content and filler.
- Partner with Demand Gen to make sure campaigns are built on messaging that converts, not just channels that spend.
- Manage and develop product marketers as the team scales; in the near term, expect to be hands-on in the work yourself.
- 5–12 years in B2B SaaS marketing, with at least 4 in product marketing and meaningful experience marketing to technical or financial buyers.
- A track record of owning positioning for a product or product line — not just executing launches someone else scoped.
- Exceptional written communication. You'll be judged on your writing, and so will we.
- Strong analytical instincts: comfortable in product analytics and GTM data, and able to build a case from evidence rather than assertion.
- Experience selling into or marketing to finance teams (FP&A, EPM, accounting, fintech) is a strong plus.
- People management or mentorship experience, or a clear readiness for it.
- Self-directed and comfortable with ambiguity. This is a role with a lot of surface area and not a lot of existing scaffolding.
You'd be defining how a category-challenging product gets understood, at a stage where your decisions actually stick. Direct access to leadership, a product that finance teams genuinely like using, and no layers between you and the customer.
