Product Marketer

We're Duckbill, a small startup building solutions that enterprise teams rely on. We’re looking for a Product Marketer to work on messaging, positioning, and sales enablement. About The Role We've built something that enterprise customers genuinely value—they're paying us, renewing, and referring others. We're an expertise-driven company with deep domain knowledge, and we need someone to harness that expertise, work it into compelling messaging and materials, and promote our solutions to the market. At Duckbill, the job of marketing is to support sales. Our GTM today is largely inbound, driven by content (written by our founders and Cloud Economists) and word-of-mouth, but we're expanding to add outbound as a channel. As our first marketing hire, you'll build our entire product marketing function from the ground up. We have a lot of one-off things that have worked well, but now it's time to build a scalable strategy and execute on it. This is a hands‑on role where you'll get your hands dirty working with a great team—not a position where you’ll only be managing the work of others. We work together in the office in San Francisco three days per week, so you must be located in the SF Bay Area and willing to work in the office on a regular basis. What You'll Do Harness our expertise: Work closely with our team to extract domain knowledge and translate it into compelling market‑facing messaging and materials Understand our market deeply: Interview customers, analyze win/loss data, and uncover the insights that drive our product and go‑to‑market strategy Craft compelling narratives: Translate our technical capabilities into value stories that resonate with enterprise decision‑makers Enable our sales efforts: Create the materials, training, and competitive intelligence our team needs to succeed in both inbound and expanding outbound channels Stay ahead of the competition: Build ongoing competitive intelligence programs that track market movements and inform our positioning strategy Drive customer insights: Establish research programs that capture voice‑of‑customer feedback and translate findings into actionable product and marketing decisions What We're Looking For 3-5 years of product marketing experience in B2B enterprise software Track record of successful product launches and go‑to‑market execution Strong research and analytical skills with a customer‑first mindset Excellent communication skills and ability to influence cross‑functional teams Comfort with ambiguity and building processes from the ground up Genuine curiosity about enterprise customer needs and market dynamics Someone comfortable working in a small, early‑stage startup Bonus points if you’re experienced with marketing to procurement, FP&A, or FinOps Why This Role Matters Direct impact: Your work directly influences our product roadmap and revenue Customer partnership: Work with enterprise customers who are genuinely invested in our success Growth opportunity: Build and potentially lead our marketing function as we scale Meaningful equity: Significant ownership stake with real upside potential Compensation & Benefits Compensation for this role is a salary range of $180,000 to $220,000 plus early‑stage equity. We provide a 401(k), as well as healthcare, vision, and dental benefits, with premiums fully covered by the company. Dependents are covered 50%. We offer 4 weeks of PTO. About Us We are a small and growing team, which means you get the opportunity to be on the ground floor of building the product and company. Our team is some of the most experienced domain experts in the industry, and our customers are among the biggest cloud spenders in the world, which means the scale and complexity of the data challenges we solve are truly at the cutting edge. We're currently in a semi‑stealth mode while we're focusing on building the initial product. #J-18808-Ljbffr
