  • Own campaign and content planning for the security portfolio 
  • Use data and insights to iterate on demand generation strategies and optimize conversion throughout the funnel
  • Work with other teams to plan events, webinars and support messaging for paid and social media promotion

What we are looking for in you

  • A passion for technology and open source—you get excited about innovation, software, and community-driven development.
  • Strong storytelling skills—you know how to craft messaging that resonates with both technical and business audiences.
  • Growth mindset—someone who thrives on experimentation, learning, and continuous improvement.
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.

Nice-to-have skills
