Senior Product Marketing Manager (AI Security)
at Datadog
San Francisco, New York, United States
Datadog is the security and observability platform for cloud infrastructure, applications, and AI. Unlike traditional software, LLMs run autonomously and nondeterministically, which makes them highly flexible but also inherently unpredictable. Datadog is building a new category of AI security and observability — empowering customers to secure their AI models and applications against prompt injection attacks, ensure model integrity, and gain full visibility into the behavior and risks of their AI systems.
We’re looking for our first Product Marketing Manager dedicated to this new AI Security product line. This is a rare opportunity to help shape the go-to-market strategy, positioning, and storytelling for one of Datadog’s most innovative initiatives — sitting at the intersection of AI, security, and observability.
At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds, and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
What You’ll Do:
- Partner with product management. You’ll be their eyes and ears in the market to understand key customer journeys and shape product and go-to-market strategies.
- Own messaging, positioning, and content strategy to articulate how our products solve key customer problems. You will enable fellow marketers to execute relevant campaigns and marketing programs.
- Work in lockstep with sales, marketing and product to shape launch plans, and drive customer awareness, interest, and adoption programs.
- Drive sales readiness. Equip Datadog sellers with the knowledge and resources they need to demonstrate the value of our offerings at every step of the purchase cycle.
- Conduct competitive market research on emerging AI threats and vendor activity.
- Thought Leadership: Partner with community, advocacy, and research teams to generate impactful thought leadership content and resources to establish our leadership position in AI security.
Who You Are:
- A product and business leader with 6+ years in a Product Marketing, Product Management, and/or Sales Engineer role
- Experience in AI, cybersecurity, and/or developer platforms
- You understand the AI model lifecycle - from training to deployment, and are familiar with new evolving threats such as prompt injection, data and model poisoning, supply chain, and data exfiltration
- You thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments and are passionate about operating from zero-to-one, testing and iterating quickly
- Exceptional positioning, messaging, and storytelling skills. Ability to translate technical concepts into compelling value and outcome-oriented stories
- You’ve got the versatility to demonstrate the power of our products to technical audiences, and articulate the business impact to executive buyers
- You are a self-starter, avid learner, and passionate about how AI will redefine security, privacy and trust.
Bonus Points:
- Experience with native AI security technology
- Comfortable marketing to diverse audiences from practitioners and industry analysts, to executive and decision makers.
