As the Director of Technical Marketing at Databricks, you will lead and scale the team responsible for explaining Databricks products, and what you can do with them, at scale to technical buyers and practitioners (from data engineers, data scientists, and ML engineers to solutions architects, platform teams, security engineers, and application developers). You will own the strategy and execution of technical content in written and video form, demos, workshops, launch storytelling, and outbound evangelism that drives technical mindshare, consideration, product adoption, and ultimately pipeline. In the era of agentic marketing and AEO/GEO, your team will increasingly produce content designed to educate both humans and agents alike. You will also play an outsized role in programming the technical content for key Databricks events, such as the Data + AI Summit and Data + AI World Tour, among others. Reporting to the SVP of Product & Solutions Marketing, you will manage a team of 6+ Technical Marketing Managers (growing) and serve as the connective tissue between Product, Product Marketing, Field Engineering, and the broader technical community.
This role expands the traditional TMM charter to include a stronger outbound evangelism dimension, becoming a visible, trusted technical voice externally through social media, YouTube, conferences, and the data practitioner ecosystem while continuing to own the core technical content engine that powers Summit, World Tour, workshops, and field enablement.
