Obsidian Security
Principal Product Marketing Manager - Platform
Obsidian Security, Palo Alto, California, United States, 94306
Principal Product Marketing Manager – Platform
Founded in 2017, Obsidian Security was created to close a critical gap: securing the SaaS applications where modern business happens—platforms like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and hundreds more.
Backed by top investors including Greylock, Norwest Venture Partners, and IVP, we’ve built a complete SaaS security platform to reduce risk, detect and respond to threats, and prevent breaches at the source. Our team includes leaders who helped define the categories of endpoint and identity security at CrowdStrike, Okta, Cylance, and Carbon Black.
Now, we’re transforming how SaaS is secured—in the era of agentic AI.
Today, Obsidian is trusted by global enterprises like Snowflake, T‑Mobile, and Pure Storage. We protect more than 200 organizations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand—including many of the world’s largest Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.
With strong global momentum, a growing partner ecosystem including SentinelOne, Databricks, and Google Cloud, and a major fundraise on the horizon, we’re scaling quickly toward long‑term growth and IPO readiness. Join us as we define the future of SaaS security!
The Opportunity We’re hiring a Principal Product Marketing Manager to lead platform and SaaS security marketing, defining the strategy and storytelling that showcase how Obsidian delivers meaningful outcomes across the SaaS security lifecycle.
You’ll own the go‑to‑market narrative for our platform capabilities powered by Obsidian’s knowledge graph, cross‑platform analytics, data moat, and our suite of capabilities that scale SaaS security to every application and user.
This is a strategic role, not a feature marketing position. You’ll turn complex architectural and data‑driven innovations into clear, outcome‑oriented stories that demonstrate measurable impact: detecting cross‑application threats, simplifying policy enforcement, and accelerating response. Working closely with Product, Sales, and Engineering, you’ll connect technology to customer value and shape how the market adopts SaaS security at scale.
What You’ll Do
Develop and own the product positioning, messaging, and value proposition of the strategic pillars of our platform.
Craft compelling narratives and partner with comms, content and demand gen to scale storytelling across campaigns, events, and channels.
Translate technical differentiation of the Obsidian SaaS and AI Defense Platform into customer‑centric outcomes.
Lead go‑to‑market strategy for new capabilities and use cases, collaborating across Product, Sales, and Marketing.
Create compelling enablement and content such as solution briefs, launch materials, and sales tools that drive understanding and adoption.
Gather customer and competitive insights to sharpen positioning and identify new market opportunities.
Serve as a company spokesperson and expert in customer, analyst and media interactions.
Collaborate with growth and analytics teams to measure and optimize GTM effectiveness.

You understand the security challenges associated with these agents accessing shared accounts, requiring identity resolution between author and runner, and have good command of the opportunities they create for modern enterprises.
