As Senior Product Marketing Operations Manager, you will be a senior individual contributor who builds and runs the operating systems that help Product Marketing work with greater clarity, consistency, and impact Your initial mandate will span four connected areas: the lifecycle for foundational messaging and positioning assets; portfolio and roadmap visibility; PMM-side launch strategy and governance; and the planning rhythms and cross-functional interlocks that connect PMM with Solutions Marketing, Integrated Marketing, Product, Communications, Sales, Customer Success, Enablement, and program management partners - clarify decision rights and handoffs; surface dependencies, risks, and tradeoffs; and establish reusable standards, templates, and operating cadences that strengthen focus and accountability. Over time, you will create a foundation that allows PMM Operations to scale as the organization’s needs evolve This role offers broad visibility across Dropbox’s product and go-to-market priorities and the opportunity to shape how a growing PMM organization operates at a strategic level. Your impact will be reflected not only in stronger processes, but in whether PMM is engaged at the right decision points, cross-functional teams are aligned on the priorities and tradeoffs that matter, and the organization can move from strategy to market with greater clarity and accountability. ## Responsibilities * Build, operate, and continuously improve the Product Marketing operating model across team planning, portfolio and roadmap visibility, foundational content systems, launch governance, and cross-functional accountability. * Establish the lifecycle for messaging, positioning, and related PMM foundations, including templates, inventories, accountable owners, review and sign-off, refresh cadences, quality standards, and a discoverable source of truth. Product Marketers retain ownership of strategic substance and accuracy. * Create and maintain a consolidated product roadmap that connects product direction to customer-facing roadmap inputs, release and launch planning, campaign and communications needs, sales and channel enablement, and other downstream go-to-market dependencies. * Own the PMM-side launch strategy and governance system, including intake, launch classification and tiering recommendations, required strategic inputs, PMM readiness criteria, decision forums, escalation paths, handoff to marketing partners, and post-launch learning. * Partner with PMM, Solutions Marketing, Integrated Marketing, Product, Communications, Sales, Customer Success, Enablement, and program-management teams to codify roles, decision rights, required inputs, and handoffs, then steward adoption and surface gaps or exceptions for leadership resolution. * Build scalable templates, reporting, knowledge systems, and responsible AI- or automation-enabled workflows; establish measures of adoption and effectiveness; and simplify or retire processes that do not create sufficient value. ## Requirements * 10+ years of experience in product marketing, product marketing operations, marketing operations, product operations, go-to-market operations, or a closely related discipline, including ownership of complex cross-functional programs in a technology or digital-product environment * Demonstrated experience designing and leading launch or commercialization operating models across multiple products, teams, or audiences, including tiering, readiness, milestones, dependencies, risk management, and post-launch learning * Working knowledge of Product Marketing fundamentals, including positioning, messaging, audiences, go-to-market planning, launch strategy, and the lifecycle of customer- and seller-facing assets; sufficient judgment to distinguish a workflow gap from an unresolved strategy or quality issue * Track record of influencing senior stakeholders without direct authority, clarifying decision rights, resolving competing priorities, and sustaining behavior or process change across functions * Experience building a new operating capability or materially redesigning an existing one, with the judgment to identify a small number of high-priority changes and the ability to execute them hands-on * Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with experience synthesizing complex inputs into concise recommendations, decision materials, operating plans, and executive updates * Experience using data, retrospectives, and responsible AI or automation practices to improve recurring workflows, with clear human review, risk awareness, and accountability for final decisions ## Preferred Qualifications * Experience building or materially redesigning a Product Marketing, Marketing, Product, or GTM operating capability from an early stage or following an organizational integration. * Experience in a multi-product, multi-audience, product-led and/or sales-assisted SaaS business. * Experience establishing messaging and positioning governance, content lifecycle management, knowledge-management systems, or reusable product and solution playbooks. * Experience supporting complex launches, migrations, deprecations, packaging or pricing changes, APIs, or other customer-impacting product transitions. ## Durable Skills AI fluency means using these tools to *amplify* human judgment, not replace it. We believe people with these skills will thrive as work and technology continue to evolve: * **Awareness:** Understand yourself and others. * **Judgment:** Evaluate information and make decisions in complex situations. * **Adaptability:** Learn, adjust, and stay effective through change. * **Connection:** Communicate, collaborate, and build trust.
