You’ll be part of a product marketing team that supports our large community of merchants, builders, and partners.

Responsibilities: 

  • Advocate for the voice of the customer: Develop a deep understanding of our customer segments, identify challenges and opportunities, and form a perspective and execute an action plan for how Woo can better support their success.
  • Work collaboratively with product, creative, operations, and other cross-functional teams to communicate and drive our product marketing roadmap.
  • Develop value propositions for our core WooCommerce platform, solutions, and products and produce marketing and enablement content such as content libraries, case studies, website copy, blog posts, and other assets in collaboration with internal and external creative resources.
  • Conduct research into industries, competitors, customer insights, and product features to develop compelling messaging and positioning.
  • Own the go-to-market strategy and execution for new and existing products across various marketing channels and the customer lifecycle.
  • Determine and be accountable to product growth success metrics and other KPIs to measure the impact of work that was done.

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of experience in product marketing or a blend of product management and product marketing roles.
  • Experience in product-led growth, lifecycle marketing, and/or experience in owning a portfolio of products where you were accountable for adoption, usage, and retention goals. 
  • Proven experience in product marketing with a keen focus on customer understanding and go-to-market support, positioning, extensive customer research, and creating engaging content.
  • Flexible, cross-functional, and collaborative team player comfortable with a changing remote environment.
  • Self-driven starter with a deep curiosity to uncover and solve problems.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects, be proactive, and stay organized.
  • Comfortable in operating in ambiguous environments where you may have to “build the plane as you fly it.”
  • Strong in execution, strategy development, and program management.
  • Experience synthesizing market intelligence and customer data into concise analysis that drives actionable outputs.
  • Comfortable working with data and insights to drive decisions and understand the impact of these decisions.
  • Able to travel globally several times per year to execute and attend community events, industry events, and company meetups.
  • Not required, but a bonus: prior ecommerce platform experience.
  • Are inspired by the Automattic creed.

About Automattic 

We are the people behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Tumblr, Simplenote, Jetpack, Longreads, Day One, PocketCasts, and more. We believe in making the web a better place.

We’re a distributed company with more than 1900 Automatticians in 96 countries speaking 120+ different languages. And, even more than growth and profitability (although we’re plenty profitable), above all, we’re driven by a mission:  We democratize publishing and commerce so anyone with a story can tell it, and anyone with a product can sell it, regardless of income, gender, politics, language, or country.

We believe in Open Source, and the vast majority of our work is available under the GPL.

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion at Automattic 

We’re improving diversity in the tech industry. At Automattic, we want people to love their work and show respect and empathy to all. We welcome differences and strive to increase participation from traditionally underrepresented groups. Our DEI committee involves Automatticians across the company and drives grassroots change. For example, this group has helped facilitate private online spaces for affiliated Automatticians to gather and helps run a monthly DEI People Lab series for further learning. DEI is a priority at Automattic, though our dedication influences far more than just Automatticians: We make our products freely available and translate our products into and offer customer support in numerous languages. We require unconscious bias training for our hiring teams and ensure our products are accessible across different bandwidths and devices. 

Automattic is a Most Loved Company and Disability Confident Committed. (Here’s what that might mean for you.) Learn more about our dedication to diversity, equity, and inclusion and our Employee Resource Groups.
