Job Title: Associate Director of Product Marketing

Location: National Harbor, MD (Hybrid)

Type: Full Time

Compensation: $130,000 to $155,000 Annually, subject to experience

Cloudforce is looking for our first dedicated product marketing hire. This role will own messaging and positioning, sales enablement, go-to-market execution, and competitive intelligence — working at the intersection of product, sales, and marketing in a company that is quickly evolving. This is a rare opportunity to shape a product marketing function from the ground up at a company with real traction, a differentiated product, and a market that is ready.

The foundation is already well underway. What does not yet exist is the operational product marketing function that turns that foundation into a repeatable, scalable motion.

That is what this role builds.

Messaging and Positioning: Own and maintain the nebulaONE® messaging architecture — core messages, product pillars, and persona-specific variants for each buying committee role. Ensure consistency across every customer-facing surface and evolve the framework as the product, market, and competitive landscape develop.

Sales Enablement: Build and maintain the sales enablement materials the nebulaONE® buying motion requires — persona-specific one-pagers, competitive battlecards, use case decks, ROI frameworks, and procurement readiness packages. The measure of success is not assets produced — it is assets used.

Product Launches and Go-to-Market: Lead the go-to-market process for new nebulaONE® features and capabilities — from positioning and messaging through launch assets and sales enablement. Translate product capabilities into customer outcomes. Coordinate launches across product, sales, marketing, and the Microsoft partnership.

Market and Competitive Intelligence: Monitor the competitive landscape, conduct win/loss analysis, and maintain a current view of where nebulaONE® is differentiated and where it is vulnerable. Keep the ICP and buying committee frameworks current as market intelligence and sales experience refine the picture.

Customer Insights and Proof Points: Partner with customer success to turn deployment experiences into case studies, testimonials, and ROI data. Build a customer reference program. Feed insights back into the product roadmap and messaging framework.

NebulaONE® Messaging Agent: Serve as the primary owner of Cloudforce's internal messaging and positioning agent — a purpose-built nebulaONE® agent that reviews content against the approved framework, generates persona-specific variants, and surfaces messaging drift. This is both an operational tool and a live proof-of-concept for what the product does.

Required:

At least 7 years of product marketing experience in B2B SaaS or enterprise technology — with demonstrated ownership of messaging, positioning, and sales enablement.

Experience building or significantly expanding a product marketing function.

Strong writing skills — the ability to translate technical capabilities into clear, persona-specific language that resonates with non-technical buyers.

Strongly Preferred:

Experience in a highly regulated vertical — higher education, healthcare, state and local government, or financial services.

Familiarity with AI products and the governance and compliance considerations that enterprise buyers care about.

Familiarity with the Microsoft ecosystem — Azure, Microsoft 365, and the partner and co-sell motion.

Familiarity with the Internet2 community, EDUCAUSE, or higher education technology networks.

Experience with HubSpot, competitive intelligence programs, and win/loss analysis

About Us

After 15 years building deep expertise as a professional services and consulting organization, Cloudforce is transitioning to a product-led company anchored by NebulaONE® — a secure, governed AI platform purpose-built for higher education and other highly regulated industries including state and local government and healthcare and life sciences.

NebulaONE® runs entirely within the customer's Microsoft Azure tenant — so institutional data never leaves their environment, access is controlled through existing identity infrastructure, and every student, faculty member, staff role, and researcher gets a branded, governed AI experience from day one. No engineering team required.

We are Microsoft's 2025 Education Partner of the Year, backed by Owl Ventures and M12 — Microsoft's venture fund. And we are just getting started.
