Senior Product Marketing Manager

The Role

We need a strategic PMM leader to own and drive our category creation efforts. You'll collaborate with our Head of Marketing and CEO to define how we position AI Time in the market, craft compelling narratives that differentiate us from legacy timekeeping, and lead our go-to-market strategy as we scale.

This role is perfect for a senior PMM who thrives on building strategy from the ground up, loves ambiguous fast-paced environments, and wants to own the narrative for a category-defining company.

What You’ll Own

• Category Strategy & Positioning: Define how we position AI Time, own our value propositions, and create the strategic narrative that transforms complex AI capabilities into clear market differentiation

• Messaging: Lead messaging strategy and execution across all touchpoints—transform product roadmaps into compelling market stories that ladder up to our broader strategic narratives

• Product Launch Strategy & Execution: Own end-to-end strategy for taking new features and products to market, from tier 3 to tier 1 releases

• Sales Enablement: Create high-impact assets and campaigns that accelerate deal velocity, working closely with sales leadership to optimize our go-to-market approach

• Market Intelligence: Drive competitive analysis and market research to inform positioning decisions and identify strategic opportunities

Qualifications

Required:

• 7+ years B2B SaaS product marketing

• Experience building messaging and positioning in early-stage, high-growth environments

• Exceptional storytelling and communication skills across multiple formats—from strategic narratives to sales collateral to presentations

• Strong strategic thinking with ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear market narratives

• Technology-first approach; you deploy tooling to scale your impact

Nice to Have:

• Previous startup experience (Series A/B preferred)

• Experience in professional services or B2B productivity software

Flexibility and Logistics:

• Location: This role will be located in our San Francisco office and will need to work hybrid from our office 3 days per week.

For candidates based in San Francisco, CA, the compensation range for this role is $150,000-$220,000 USD. Final compensation amounts will be determined based on several factors including candidate experience, qualifications and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed.

• Visa Sponsorship: Unfortunately we are unable to sponsor visas at this time.

Why join Laurel:

• To date, we've secured significant funding from renowned venture capitalists (Google Ventures, IVP, Anthos, Upfront Ventures), as well as notable individuals like Marc Benioff, Gokul Rajaram, Kevin Weil, and Alexis Ohanian

• A smart, fun, collaborative, and inclusive team

• Great employee benefits, including equity and 401K

• Bi-annual, in-person company off-sites, in unique locations, to grow and share time with the team

• An opportunity to perform at your best while growing, making a meaningful impact on the company's trajectory, and embodying our core values: understanding your "why," dancing in the rain, being your whole self, and sanctifying time
