Senior Director, Developer Product Marketing

Available Locations: Austin, Texas
About the Role
The Senior Director of Developer Product Marketing is the strategic lead for how Cloudflare's developer platform is perceived and adopted in the global market. While our Product Managers build the "what," you own the "why," the "who," and the "how we win." You will lead the team responsible for defining the narrative for Workers, Workers AI, R2, and the broader developer ecosystem, ensuring our story resonates with everyone from solo builders to CTOs at Fortune 500 companies.
In this role, you will move beyond tactical growth loops to focus on the core tenets of Product Marketing: Positioning, Go-To-Market (GTM) Strategy, Market Intelligence, and Sales/Field Readiness. You will be the primary bridge between a highly technical Product organization and our global Sales, Marketing, and Developer Relations teams.
What You Will Do

• Strategic Positioning & Messaging: Define the category-level narrative for the Cloudflare Developer Platform. Create high-impact positioning that differentiates our "Connectivity Cloud" from legacy hyperscalers and niche compute providers.
• Go-to-Market Orchestration: Lead the end-to-end GTM strategy for new products and major feature launches. You will orchestrate the transition from "feature ready" to "market ready," ensuring all internal and external channels are aligned.
• Market & Competitive Intelligence: Act as the "outside-in" voice for the developer organization. Conduct deep competitive analysis and market research to influence the product roadmap and arm our field teams with "how to win" battlecards.
• Field & Sales Enablement: Partner with the Sales and Solutions Engineering leadership to build the playbook for selling to developers and technical buyers. Translate complex technical capabilities into value-based selling tools, demos, and training.
• Customer Insights & Advocacy: Develop a deep understanding of our developer personas. Work with our customers to develop case studies and technical proof points that validate our platform's impact at scale.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Serve as a strategic partner to Product Management. While PMs own the product delivery and technical onboarding, you own the market success and the cohesive developer story across the entire Cloudflare portfolio.
• Team Leadership: Recruit and mentor a high-performing team of Product Marketers and Content Strategists, fostering a culture of excellence in storytelling and strategic thinking.

Who You Are

• A Master Strategist: You have a proven track record of taking complex developer technologies and turning them into clear, compelling market narratives. You think in terms of market categories and value props, not just feature lists.
• Technically Credible: You are comfortable "talking shop" with developers and PMs. You understand the nuances of serverless, edge computing, and AI architectures, and you know how to translate those into business outcomes.
• GTM Expert: You have led large-scale launches in the DevOps, Cloud, or Infrastructure space. You know how to align a global organization around a single launch moment.
• Collaborative Leader: You excel at navigating high-growth, PM-led organizations. You know how to provide the "marketing layer" that complements technical product ownership without stepping on toes.
• Data-Driven, Narrative-Led: You use market data and competitive signals to inform your strategy, but you rely on your storytelling instincts to win hearts and minds.

Qualifications

• 10+ years in Product Marketing, with a significant focus on developer-facing tools or infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS).
• Experience leading PMM teams in a high-velocity, technical environment (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Vercel, Stripe).
• Demonstrated ability to influence product roadmaps through market research and competitive intelligence.
• Exceptional writing and presentation skills-you can write the keynote and the technical whitepaper.
