• Experience developing clear, engaging content for customer-facing or internal audiences, such as messaging, presentations, sales tools, or marketing collateral.
• Strong written, verbal, presentation, research, and analytical skills, with the ability to synthesize complex information into clear recommendations and compelling narratives.
• Excellent organizational and project-management skills, including the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines in a fast-moving environment.
• A collaborative, proactive approach and demonstrated ability to build productive relationships across cross-functional teams.
• Strong attention to detail and proficiency with Microsoft PowerPoint, Word, Excel, and common marketing and collaboration tools.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in cybersecurity, AI, cloud, SaaS, enterprise software, or another technical B2B market.
• Exposure to product launches, go-to-market planning, competitive intelligence, market research, or sales enablement programs.
• Experience creating content for technical products or audiences and simplifying complex concepts without losing their meaning.
• Familiarity with cybersecurity concepts, security operations, threat landscapes, analyst research, or market-assessment methodologies.

What Success Looks Like

• You consistently deliver high-quality content and enablement resources that strengthen customer engagement and support pipeline and revenue goals.
• You help launches and go-to-market programs move from plan to execution smoothly, bringing structure, collaboration, and attention to detail to every initiative.
• You become a trusted partner to Product, Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success by providing responsive support and valuable market and customer insight.
