Sr Technical Product Marketing Manager

We're hiring a Senior Technical Product Marketing Manager to be the technical storyteller for the Couchbase platform. You'll translate deep product capability into differentiated narratives, proof, and enablement for technical audiences — developers, architects, DBAs, and platform teams — and arm our field with the demos, content, and competitive ammunition they need to win. This is a hands-on role for someone who is equally comfortable in an architecture diagram, a query console, and on stage. You'll partner closely with Product Management, Engineering, Sales Engineering, and Developer Relations, and play a central role in product launches and go-to-market motions across our portfolio.
