Your job: craft positioning that proves our discovery-to-encryption platform closes DSPM gaps, thwarts quantum era threats, and generally saves the day. You’ll report to the Sr. Director of Cybersecurity Product Marketing and partner with product, sales, and multiple marketing disciplines to turn bright ideas into revenue - fast.</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>What You’ll Drive → Why It Matters</strong></span></p><p> </p><ul><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>Messaging & Positioning</strong> - Build punchy, differentiated narratives for data discovery, tokenization, DSPM, and PETs → Buyers are tired of vendor jargon; they want value clarity with the tech chops to back it up. You’ll give it to them.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>Competitive Intensity</strong> - Track and out-position data security players like Varonis, BigID, Wiz, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, Cyera, Thales, IBM Guardium, Imperva & Protegrity → Knowing them inside out lets us steal their lunch money - ethically, of course.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>Launch Excellence</strong> - Orchestrate releases, hero use cases (DSPM, cloud-agnostic encryption) and customer proof points → Activity without discipline is just chaos. You’ll keep everyone honest and focused on the prize.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>Sales & Partner Enablement</strong> - Create battlecards, calculators, talk tracks, and training that bump win rates → Because hope is not a strategy and “random acts of marketing” won’t help sales progress and close opportunities.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>Demand-Gen Alignment -</strong> Feed persona-based pain points (CISOs, Data Privacy Officers, DBAs) and compelling events (breach, new privacy law, data audit) into campaigns → We chase buyers budget priorities, not impressions.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>Market Insight</strong> - Mine analyst, customer, and market data to inform product direction (DSP, DSPM, PETs) → Staying ahead of competitive threats beats playing catch‑up any day.</span></li></ul><p> </p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>What You Need To Succeed</strong></span></p><ul type="disc"><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>8+ years</strong> in enterprise software with <strong>5+ in cybersecurity or data security product marketing</strong></span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Hands‑on wins launching or messaging <strong>DSPM, discovery/classification, encryption/tokenization, DLP, or database activity monitoring</strong></span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Stints at - or battles won against – data security vendors like <strong>Varonis, BigID, Wiz, Prisma Cloud, Microsoft Security, Cyera, Thales CipherTrust, IBM Guardium, Imperva, or Protegrity</strong></span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>AI marketing chops</strong>: you’ve used GenAI or ML-based AI (not just read the blog posts). You don’t need to be an expert, but you need to be hands-on and keen to learn more. We’ll level you up.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Fluent in translating tech‑speak into value for <strong>CISOs, CIOs, CDOs, and Data Security Engineers</strong></span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">You’ve helped enable sales teams to smash quotas - and you have the receipts.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Killer storyteller on stage, camera, or analyst calls – you have your own style that inspires confidence in your audience.</span></li><li style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Data driven, self-directed, happy to step up, and ready to take on the doomsayers; you get it done.</span></li></ul><p> </p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><strong>One Last Thing</strong></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">We’re thousands of cyber experts strong with the resources of a market leader and the hustle of a scaleup. There are ten business units at OpenText, and we intend to be the biggest within five years. You’ll also work side by side with a team leader that’s been knee-deep in AI since IBM’s Watson won Jeopardy. Finally, you’ll be working on something that matters. Cybersecurity protects individuals as well as businesses. Breaches can kill careers at scale, drain life savings to the tune of billions, and threaten national security. Come and help us connect our customers to the solutions they need to stop that happening.</span></p><br><p> </p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0px;">OpenText's commitment to diversity and inclusion surpasses legal requirements, evident in our <a href="https://www.opentext.com/assets/documents/en-US/pdf/opentext-equal-employment-opportunity-statement-of-policy-us-en.pdf">Equal Employment Opportunity Statement of Policy</a> which promotes a respectful and empowering environment for employees of all backgrounds, culture, national origin, race, color, gender, gender identification, sexual orientation, family status, age, veteran status, disability, religion, or other basis protected by applicable laws.</p><p> </p><p style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.0px;">If you need assistance and/or a reasonable accommodation due to a disability during the application or recruiting process, please submit a ticket at <a href="https://help.opentext.com/portal/site/selfservice?customView=newTicket">Ask HR</a>.
